Clearly, she (Erazo) doesn't understand the protections guaranteed under the Fourth Amendment.

I am not sure how the drug dog "alerting" played in.  THE SCOTUS has determined that drug dogs can be used in motor vehicle stops to justify further searches, but that falls under a special clause pertaining only to automobiles.

Also, Landlords ABSOLUTELY cannot give the permission to search renter premises without express permission of the owner.

This sounds really bad on the surface, but you never know how much poor reporting of the details to support the media agenda of selling stories comes into play.
