View this case - free

View this case - free  

Overview: Judgment against plaintiff detainee on her § 1983 claims was affirmed; 911 statements by plaintiff's son that his mother was "going crazy" and that she was "trying to kill herself" were sufficient to justify the warrantless entry, and once inside, the officers' own observations confirmed the son's fears and justified the warrantless seizure.
