Without a warrant, that is basically just a consentual encounter. You didn't let him in and he left...so what?



If he comes back with a warrant, read it. It generally must specifically state what is being sought out. The judge will have reviewed and signed the warrant as well. It is not a pass to search your home for anything and everything. Plain view items once inside may be fair game but your legit so who cares?



As for his comment about City Hall, if it was initiated during a City Hall meeting, that should be public record. That means that you may be able to watch the recorded meeting on local public access channels, read a transcript on the internet or get it in writing somewhere. I am not sure if I would go to City Hall and ask if there has been a complaint against your residence.



He could have simply searched your name on the internet. I know if I type myself into Google, there are pages and pages of snake related items that pop up. Remember that we are a special interest group that is very foreign to the average person. I can see how he might be concerned if he is acting as a potential buyer. I mean, he did a walk through and in his eyes, you had some mysterious room "off limits". Maybe he just wants to know what he may be buying?



Also keep in mind that we use tons of electricity, just like Marijuana growers. Bearded dragons and "pot" love giant heat lamps. Sometimes power companies will tip off police/sheriffs agencies to houses that are using a crazy amount of electricity. That is usually done with a warrant, with no warning and lots of guns.



"I pay your salary!!!"--usually stated by the people that have no job and do not pay taxes. Cops pay taxes too, I guess you could say they pay their own salaries to be fair.



Bottom line.....just get your house sold. Those crazy cops usually have decent credit and are able to qualify for loans. Might be a solid potential buyer? If your bent, tell your realtor you want to move on to the next in line impatiently waiting to view your house for sale. Or just go to the P.D. and file a complaint.



OK, off to work to pay more taxes. I heard there is a guy with a Burmese python and a 2 year old daughter, selling crack and that needs another welfare check.
