Unanimous decision is great news.
The Supreme Court on Monday unanimously declined to give police more power to search a person’s residence without a warrant, reinforcing the longstanding principle that the home enjoys special protections under the law.
The case involved a warrantless police search of a Rhode Island man’s house and seizure of his guns based on the officers’ belief that the man was at serious risk of harming himself or others.
While the justices have long said that a so-called community caretaking exception allows police to sidestep the Constitution’s warrant requirement to search cars in certain dangerous situations, they declined to extend this concept broadly to the home.
