I am watching the fantastic reality series THE FIRST 48 on A&E. The homicide detectives go to Liberty City in Miami and find a dead man laying on the threshhold of his own apartment. Why doesn't the crime scene automatically include the apt., especially since the front door is open and the victim is laying on that opening? If no one else lives at the apartment and no permission can be obtained from an apt. manager/owner to search the place, why can't the officers start gathering vital clues inside the home to help them find the killer? The more time that goes by, the less chance they have of solving the murder. Also, does anyone know roughly how long these search warrants can take to get? Are we talking 15 minutes or 15 hours? Lastly, does each state differ on this search warrant issue or is it a federal matter? Thank you.
