They found stolen items in their possession from another burglary. Would that make a difference for the LEO?


Absolutely,"fruits of the crime", however it would only link them to the crime that the items came from. Since the police took them into custody and charged them withthe original crime from a week before, it makes me wonder if warrants had already been issued.

The only thing worse than a liberal is a liberal that thinks they're a conservative.
