The judge says that law enforcement officers may commit a crime (Criminal Trespass) in order to obtain evidence of criminal activity. Okay, so what's wrong with that picture???
Just FYI - Texas Penal Code - Criminal Trespass
An offense under this section is: (3) a Class A misdemeanor if: (B) the person carries a deadly weapon during the commission of the offense.
William C. Griesbach says the police may just disregard laws that would proscribe their conduct.

I note in his official DoJ bio, Santelle is a 1983 graduate of the University of Chicago Law School. And we are surprised at his opinions why?
