Two individual charged with possession of drugs and guns after police execute a search warrant of their residence.

In any Massachusetts drug charge involving a search warrant, it is important to hire an experienced Massachusetts criminal lawyer to review the warrant to determine if there was probable cause for the police to obtain the warrant under the Constitution. A police search warrant can be challenged on a number of grounds. In some cases, an informant will provide the police with information that forms the basis of the warrant. Information obtained from an informant must have a basis of knowledge and the informant must be reliable. Additionally, the facts contained in the search warrant affidavit must be current; in other words, the affidavit cannot have stale or old information. Finally, in search warrant cases, there must be a link between the alleged illegal activity and the place to be searched.
