7. It is not true that finding stolen goods at one property is by itself sufficient probable cause

to search all other properties owned by the same person. A warrant can be issued only if there is probable cause that the items are present at that particular location. If a warrant is later determined to have been issued without sufficient probable cause, none of the evidence found pursuant to that warrant can be used in a prosecution. Do you want to risk that, or do you want them to do it right even if it doesn't satisfy your timeline?
