This whole thing is total BS
To the best of my knowledge there were no arrest made. The downfall to it all is now these girls don't have work so most of them will end up leaving town. I know on at least one of the warrants that the undercover exaggerated information in order to get the search warrant. Then they go in and take anything of value that these girls have so they are broke. Under South Carolina law it's very hard and expensive for them to get their property back. The best thing to do now is just go get a massage so these girls can work and then maybe in time it can be business as normal again. Obviously they found nothing substantial or they would have made arrest.
Search warrant but witness interrogation?
[QUOTE=DifferentDays;6566483]Correct no arrests made to this point.
LE took the girls in, isolated them. And questioned them. Do you think these ladies fresh off the boat understand "the right to remain silent?" Hell no. Quite the opposite. They know in China if they don't speak, they may not ever see light of day again. They were asked questions along the line if the bosses forced them to do illicit things. They intimidated them enough to take their phones and convince them that they have to also give up their passcode. They took 8 phones, probably cloned them, and only returned 6.
All five of the agencies should be embarrassed. Instead of conducting and orchestrating good police work, they targeted a group of individuals whom they knew wouldn't understand their rights in the USA.
You'd think at least one of the five agency leaders would step forward, be a man, say they "came away with nothing. And furthermore as an American vested in the realm of public service, is ashamed of how his counterparts acted, and trampled on and the constitution. ".
It is no wonder they are called pigs.[/QUOTE]Did LEO enter under authority of a search warrant but detain and question suspects? That's a problem already. If the search warrant was executed and the listed items not found, LEO required to leave. However if legally on premises with warrant and personally witness a criminal act, then they can make warrant less arrest. But to use it as a manufactured event to get probable cause is improper. If no arrest yet, indicates a failed fishing expedition.
None of the groups in Augusta
