The extant literature does not provide a detailed understanding of why police departments are increasingly using search warrants and in particular why plainclothes detectives are conducting these raids at a higher rate. Furthermore, the research does not provide an understanding for how search warrants are secured and executed by police departments. This research examines the social constructions detectives use to justify and carry out the various stages of the search warrant process. Ethnographic research was used to observe 73 search warrants over a 21 month period. The findings indicate there are five stages to the search warrant process: (1) when detectives seek warrants; (2) obtaining the warrant; (3) preparing for the warrant; (4) executing the warrant; and (5) measuring the warrant’s success. When examining the search warrant process as a whole, the research finds those detectives’ typifications of the need for search warrants rests on the officer safety and the need to secure evidence of criminal activity before it is destroyed. The research also shows the detectives’ emphasis v on safety is contradictory as the process detectives use to execute search warrant exposes the detectives to increased and often unnecessary risks. vi TABLE OF CONTENTS PAGE DEDICATION .....................................................................................................................v ACKNOWLEDGMENTS ................................................................................................. vi ABSTRACT ...................................................................................................................... vii TABLE OF FIGURES ........................................................................................................ x INTRODUCTION ...............................................................................................................1 Legal Doctrine of Search Warrants ..........................................................................6 The Police and the Law............................................................................................2 Outline......................................................................................................................8 LITERATURE REVIEW ..................................................................................................20 Social Construction of Reality ...............................................................................20 Police Stop and Search Decisions ..........................................................................26 METHODS ........................................................................................................................41 Bourbonville ..........................................................................................................41 Bourbonville Police Department ............................................................................42 The Units under Study ...........................................................................................42 Ethnography ...........................................................................................................44 Access, Rapport, and the Researcher’s Role .........................................................47 Field Observations .................................................................................................53 Validity ..................................................................................................................54 Ethics......................................................................................................................57 Data Analysis .........................................................................................................60 Summary ................................................................................................................64 STARTING THE WARRANT ..........................................................................................66 Proactive Patrols ....................................................................................................71 Confidential Informants .........................................................................................82 Citizen Complaints.................................................................................................85 vii Patrol Officers ........................................................................................................87 Summary ...............................................................................................................88 SECURING THE WARRANT..........................................................................................90 Securing Probable Cause .......................................................................................90 Writing the Warrant ...............................................................................................95 Getting the Warrant Signed .................................................................................104 Summary ..............................................................................................................106 PREPARING FOR THE RAID .......................................................................................109 Personnel ..............................................................................................................109 Pre-Warrant Execution Surveillance ....................................................................113 Briefing the Warrant ............................................................................................118
