This is my first post please bare with me...
Recently had detectives at my home with a search warrent, warrent stated they were looking for certin items which they only took some stupid items, photos,reciepts etc...the warrent stated electronic storage devices I assume this is computors? they took 3. Two laptops and a PC. What I was wondering is this, I got this from another info site. Does this apply to my situation as for them opening my PC and snooping?
"Accordingly, Rule 41 permits agents to obtain a warrant authorizing the seizure of the computer hardware. In most cases, investigators will simply obtain a warrant to seize the computer, seize the hardware during the search, and then search through the defendant's computer for the contraband files back at the police station or computer forensics laboratory. In such cases, the agents should explain clearly in the supporting affidavit that they plan to search the computer for evidence and/or contraband after the computer has been seized and removed from the site of the search."
I have not been charged, I got one laptop back, but was this a violoation of the warrent since they opened them up?
