yeah, if this was a simple search, but it wasn't. And I don't know of anyone that wanted to refuse a search, in any reports. if we can find an article or interview of someone wanting to refuse a search, and that not be granted, we may have a good discussion to go on. even though the officer also has their right to search without a warrant, per the 4th amendment and the exigent circumstance, in this case. I don't think law enforcement can throw out the exigent circumstance every single time they want to search a house. I mean, I guess they could, but probably wouldn't have a job for long.
