   Someone had to lie to a judge to get the search warrant in the first   
   place.   
      
   If the Judge was told that the documents being sought were already in   
   the possession of the CRA, then the judge wouldn't have signed the   
   search warrant.   
      
   A criminal charge should be layed against the CRA agents or police   
   officer who fabricated the supporting information for the search   
   warrant.   
      
   If that was done, then that would set a precedent for personal   
   responsibility and culpability that would prevent people from sticking   
   their necks out like this in the future.
