Police Seize Electronics From Home Where Lawyer Was Killed<\/a>, recently released search warrant records showed that D.C. Police became interested in e-mails at a Robert Wone&#8217;s house where he was murdered while he and two others were home.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>After their initial search of the house, police asked the court for an additional search warrant for electronic equipment because Wone and &#8220;one of the occupants&#8221; had e-mailed before the visit and had made phone calls in the &#8220;recent time period before the decedent was killed,&#8221; according to the affidavit. In a separate search warrant for Price&#8217;s office computer, police say that Price had spoken with Wone before he was killed. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>This is yet another example of the ubiquity of search warrants, even in murder cases. Here, the police were apparently running down all leads, had two people at home who heard nothing, and even felt the computers would have potential evidence. Remember, under <em>Zurcher v. Stanford Daily<\/em>, the standard is probable cause to believe that the computer holds evidence of a crime, not necessarily that the owner or possessor of the computer is even a suspect in the crime.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>b2evGMco.b2evALnk.b2WPAutP.b2evSmil <a class=\"more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/fourthamendment.com\/?p=466\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"pingsdone","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-466","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/fourthamendment.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/466","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/fourthamendment.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/fourthamendment.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fourthamendment.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fourthamendment.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=466"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/fourthamendment.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/466\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":29160,"href":"https:\/\/fourthamendment.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/466\/revisions\/29160"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/fourthamendment.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=466"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fourthamendment.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=466"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fourthamendment.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=466"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
