"Knock, knock."
"Who's there?"
"The police."
"The police who?"
(Noises start supposedly coming from inside the residence that sound like someone is frantically trying to dispose of contraband because the police knocked on their door.)
"The police who are going to break down your door because once we announced the police were at your door, you started making sounds in there like you were destroying evidence. Therefore, you created exigent circumstances and an exception to the warrant requirement of the Fourth Amendment, and anything we see in plain view once we are get in there will be used as evidence against you at your trial."
If you are accused of a crime or have been convicted already, contact me if you can afford to hire a private criminal defense lawyer. Otherwise, contact your county or state public defender to see if they can help.
