U.S. SC to allow 'Barney Fife' 4th Amendment Subversion

From The Washington Post:

Papist members vote to subvert 4th Amendment

Chief Justice John Roberts, writing for the court, said the evidence may be used "when police mistakes are the result of negligence such as that described here, rather than systemic error or reckless disregard of constitutional requirements."

He was joined by Justices Antonin Scalia, Anthony M. Kennedy, Clarence Thomas and Samuel A. Alito Jr.

So, as with such subversive police tactics as the [criminal-apostate] Commonwealth of Virginia's excuse that the police video was "just grey static", record keeping 'blunders' may be used to subvert the U.S. Constitution's 4th Amendment protections against politically motivated searches.

In this case, the defendant-victim was given a 27 month prison sentence for "crimes" that the statutes violate the Constitution (drug and gun possession).

Decisions as this show where these Supreme Court 'justices' loyalities lay.

A number of people have been writing about Herring v. United States -- yet another incursion into the already decimated Fourth Amendment.
