[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just read my kids' school parking permit application and I do not understand how police had the right to have drug sniffing dogs go through the parking lot without any probable cause for the search in the first place. There is nothing in the application that mentions this.  If a kid goes to his car when they are not supposed to and then a security officer catches him I can understand searching car but I really do not get how they are allowed to randomly send dogs through school parking lots.  Hell, I thought they were not allowed to open backpacks without probably cause but maybe I am just ignorant.  [/quote]

The drug dogs can also go through the school at any time and alert on a locker. For random searches like those, the police don’t need anything. Once the dog alerts, they have probable cause for the particular car or locker the dog alerted on. If it’s on school property, there’s no expectation of privacy and the kid has to open up. If a kid refuses, the school can open a locker. The police can also obtain a warrant if they want to be overly cautious, but the kid will not be allowed to alter or move the vehicle or access its contents in the meantime. [/quote]
