In yet another huge blow to our Constitution, the Supreme Court ruled in Jan 2015 that a police officer can violate your 4th Amendment rights if they make a ‘reasonable’ mistake regarding the law.
If you are ignorant of the law, that is no excuse, but if a cop is ignorant of the law, he can violate your rights.
As incredible as it sounds, any cop can ‘play dumb’ and proceed to do anything he wants to you and feel secure that his excuse of ignorance will shield him.
How in the hell can a cop be expected to uphold the law if he doesn’t even know the law?

Was arrested for disorderly conduct after telling a Sheriff Department officer who wanted to search me after a dog attacked me, to get a warrant. then explain to the officer Tennessee has a state leash law. I was informed he did not know if the county had adopted it.smfh. then off to jail I went after they confiscated my BB guns that were on my porch in plain view,lol…. still haven’t got them back
If they don’t know the law, then they aren’t qualified to enforce the law.
