Fake emergency search warrants draw scrutiny from Capitol Hill
Why are EDR's from LE even a thing?  If it's really such a matter of life and death, they should have a judge on call (i.e. a judge-type judge, with a robe and a gavel) to issue an emergency court order.  So it's a real court order and not some simulation from a police department.  Of course that can also be forged so this question is only about why judges are removed from the loop.  If it's really a matter of life and death, wake up the damn judge.  If that's too big a deal, you are doing too many of these "emergency" requests.
