Search Warrants: Casey Anthony Example

The published Casey Anthony search warrant is a great example of what goes into a search warrant -- the police just can't enter a home to search without justification.

Here, there is a detailed affidavit explaining why the authorities want to enter the home and what specific items they are interested in locating. There is also the signature of a judge, approving the search as being legally appropriate, based upon what the affidavit has provided.
