| Joelcool7 said: Warrants take time to grant sometimes days. In a case of a pimp being busted or a kidnapping the kidnappers or homies or what ever you call a pimps cronies would have time to move the women or kidnapped child to a different location. I thought of another scenerio. What if someone is going to carry out a bombing or is suspected of terrorist activity. They get arrested, the phone could be the trigger device and it could carry information about the target of the attack and the accomplaces. Again a warrant would be issued but not in time to prevent a terrorist attack. |
You could make these exact same arguments however about a computer say, or even somebodies house. Warrants exist for a reason and the reason applies to phones in my opinion. They are essentially to stop abuse of power and invasion of privacy.
In any case, do you have any stats on how long it takes for a warrant to be served in cases where there is time pressure (such as kidnapping)?
