Welcome back to #QualityMatters.  Your host Darci Chambers and Co-Host Kyle Chambers are discussing a recent nation wide news story in Houston Texas involving a shooting, multiple injured officers, the death of two suspects, and the infamous no knock warrant.  From a process and procedural point of view, how could this have gone differently?  What can be done in the future.

HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) -- It

was a mother worried about her daughter's drug use that alerted Houston police

to a home in southeast Houston, leading to a deadly drug raid, say ABC13

sources. 

Below is a little of what we have read and understand about

the case so far.

Search Warrant

Requirement

The Fourth

Amendment to the United States Constitution protects

people’s right “to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects,

against unreasonable searches and seizures.” Police must obtain a search

warrant from a judge, although courts have identified exceptions to this rule,

such as emergency situations and items plainly visible to police officers. A

defendant may ask a court to suppress evidence obtained in violation of the

Fourth Amendment, which prevents the state from using it in a criminal trial.
