let me answer them for you:
1. Prove to me that the warrant wasn't a general warrant
The warrant was a general warrant because it did not particularize what was to be seized. instead, they seized everything on all 15 computers. The US Supreme has stated in 2014 that the wholesale seizure of all items are unconstitutional. The federal district court here in Illinois also confirmed that full seizure of all information on a digital device was unconstitutional
2. Prove to me that they had probable cause.
The state didn't have probable cause because they did NO INVESTIGATION the threat prior the seizure of the devices, or prior to the arrest. They didn't corroborate the anonymous tip, nor did they confirm if me or my computers was link to the threat prior the arrest or seizure, they eventually learned that my IP was not on that site at all, during the time frame of the threat.
3. Prove to me that it OK for the FBI to hang on to a computer for over a year before getting a warrant.
The computer seized the devices on April 11th, 2018, they found the computer-generated image a week after the charges were dismissed (April 16th). The FBI stopped the search to seek a second warrant. they wait over one year to get that warrant. The US Supreme Court has stated that waiting that long is unreasonable and therefore unconstitutional. When law enforcement or the government seeks a search warrant it is time sensitive and law enforcement must act quickly to secure the search warrant.
4. Prove to me that computer generated images are illegal.
Computer generated images are legal the US Supreme Court has stated that computer generated images, that is images created by using a program on a computer is not only legal but constitutionally protected speech unless its deemed OBSCENE. (Ashcroft v Free Speech Coalition 2002, US v Williams 2008) Illinois Supreme Court has also stated that the material is not only legal but constitutionally protected speech unless its deemed OBSCENE. there is also the issue that people have the right to possess look at obscene material in the privacy of their home (Stanley v Georgia US SUPREME COURT1969)
So again prove me wrong
