Title: why do LE need a signature for controlled delivery?
Post by: sunnydog on November 23, 2011, 12:14 am
can't they just wait till someone picks up the package from their box and arrest them?

I think it is in case you havent opened the package before they storm the gates. If you didn't open it, technically, it isn't yours, but I bet they could convince a jury that because you signed for it, you obviously knew what it was.

so then it is probably wise, to leave the package unopened for a week so that if they come in with a warrant they have wasted their time and money.

or lets say you take it to your friends house and come back to your house, and they come in with a warrant, and don't find anything. they had delivered the package to you and now it is gone. are you under arrest then?

Just because you pick up a package from your box they can't prove you INTENDED on receiving it. Otherwise I could send drugs to you and get you busted even if you had no knowledge of the package. Signing for it proves that you intended to receive it.
