United States Third Circuit

Searching a mother and her daughter for evidence beyond the warrant's scope and without probable cause violated their Fourth Amendment rights; it was clearly established that police could not broaden the scope of a warrant with an unincorporated affidavit. Defendants were properly denied qualified immunity for the searches.
