GSG,
Don't forget, thats not case law. It never went to trial, a verdict was never rendered. The cops are free to do exactly the same thing again. And the same outcome will probably occur, charges dropped. After a big hassle .
by the way, goldberg has not yet gotten his gun back.
Prosecutors will be very careful not to make bad case law. They will drop charges if they think they can't win, or they may try to negotiate a deal. Either way, no case law is made.
What will make the cops change how they behave is if Goldberg's civil suit costs the town of Glastonbury seven figures. Then the memo's will fly in all the local PDs.
