im not the one saying cops have more rights then civilians. because they really dont. not in this situation anyway.

I believe the police investigated and didn't find any criminal intent however, that doesn't protect the city from being sued for his actions. He violated her right to privacy while working on behalf of the city.
This guy is damned lucky that he didn't get shot.
nope. nobody has said that despite multiple attempts from me asking them. nobody is really arguing with us, they just want to win an argument and make somone feel bad while doing it. small penis effect, i believe.
only after she violated her neighbors rights to decency.

Link to this constitutionally protected right?

no or eh would have done it. BUT saying that he still broke the law, invaded her privacy, and lied to his boss.
on what grounds? because the place was dirty (they knew that witch is one reason she was getting served) and as he claims the door was open when he banged on it?
nope sorry he had NO right to enter her house.
but anyway the OP is trolling but im bored and don't want to go work in the fields lol
now the civil lawsuit won't go anywhere though.
county sanitary laws. she signed up for it when she bought the place in that county.

Because once he lied to his boss about it, why he went in takes a backseat to the lying about it part.
You can't put your employer at risk lie to them about it and expect nothing to happen. To think otherwise is just plain ingnorant.

and why wont the civil suit go anywhere? because he really didnt do anything wrong.

Care to answer the question I actually asked? And possibly how that trumps the 4th amendment? Take your time, we'll wait.

You do realize that is for the justice system in the county to decide and enforce, not some county worker serving a citation?

No Lifer
no it's not.
you are missing part. he is asking for CONSTITUTIONALLY protected rights. what you listed is not a right.
common courtesy yes. but not a right.
so federal laws dont say you have to abide by state and local regulations?

One does not lose their rights to privacy by violating HOA rules or city ordinances. She will win a suit against the city as she has the video to prove the man entered her house without having official authority to do so.

you have abide by the regulations. but if you don't it does not give him the right to enter the house.

No, he didn't. He knocked on the door, and then let himself in when he didn't get an answer.
Doesn't matter, he knew someone lived there. This isn't some nosy parent checking into their teens room, this is a stranger letting himself into someone's house uninvited while they were sleeping. You're welcome.

Swing and a miss. Shocking.
Yes, and we know that code enforcement is tasked with the responsibility of personally investigating whenever there's a "hint" of something that might be wrong. They should investigate by entering a private home without permission 😉
probable cause gives you the right to enter a house. which he clearly had, thats why he wasnt charged with any crime.
its got little to do with him being an inspector and more to do with him being a compassionate human that tried to do the right thing.
he doesnt need permission if the situation seems dire and the door is open with no answer. he was not charged with a crime because he did not break the law.
Legally I see everyone's point, but it seems as though we're argueing aginst human descency.
If you see someone in need ignore them.
If you neighbors house is on fire, it is really none of your business unless the fire could spread to your house then you should call 911 since you would be personally affected.
If you see a car that has crashed into a river or lake with people trapped inside. Even if you are able to respond to help those inside, even if you have the skillset to rescue those people,it not really your business and you would be interfereing with an official government matter. You may want to call 911, surely one of the persons in the car has a phone It just makes sense that one of them would call 911 being that they are IN the car.. Your call to 911 just may cause a busy signal for someone else in need. Who knows your call to 911 just may cost someone else their life. Yeah we better wait on the professionals.
Yes the guy was legally wrong. Yes if the guy just ignored the rare human need to help someone he would still have his job.
This so much reminds me of the recent case of the life guard that was fired because he saved someone from drowning in an area he was not assigned to.
Yes doing the humane and descent thing isn't always legal. Just as if a child is trapped in a burning house it is not legal to break the window and pull the child out. How many charges is that? 1. Kidnapping 2. Breaking and Entering 3. Assault and if it is a female child you could very well have to register as a Sex offender for life.
Great job guys. Now everyone has even less reason to help in any type of crime or emergency situation.
