Also written about at http://www.washingtonpost.com/news/volokh-conspiracy/wp/2014/09/22/when-administrative-inspections-of-businesses-turn-into-massive-armed-police-raids/#comments The real said thing is this is the second time that this court has ruled against this specific law enforcement agency about this behavior.
