THE NECESSITY OF A CONSTITUTIONAL MINDSET IN LAW ENFORCEMENT

Back in 2018, Royce discussed this case that has now been doubly decided in favor of a concealed carrier against a Connecticut police officer who decided that the presence of a valid carry permit somehow constituted a valid reason to extract, face-slam, handcuff, stuff into a police car and search the vehicle of his victim without a warrant. A federal lawsuit was filed, the cop pleaded "qualified immunity", one court decided that was crap, the loser decided to appeal, and a second court decision from a group of liberal court justices was interesting, to say the least....and maybe not what you think!
