The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized
This video shows a direct violation of the fourth amendment. What is most shocking to me is that the Deputy defends the woman that is attempting to search his property and take pictures as evidence, and says that the man should not be worried if he has "nothing to hide." The man is absolutely right in sayinfg that it is not an issue of whether or not he has anything to hide, but whether or not she has probable cause to search the property. This is the exact reason behind this amendment, to protect people from searches based on no evidence or probable cause. The woman even tells him that she will stay "as long as she needs to". The law enforcement officer is directly sponsering a violation of the constitution, and his lack of knowledge about the amendment is ridiculous.
