They can't arrest you for something they didn't have a warrant for, but they may try.

Cheeze pizza arrest in progress, nice.
>>
>>17232755
if there was cheese pizza i certainly wouldnt be worrying about other shit nahimsayin
>>
>>17232760
so you got caught selling drugs and took your laptop and phone to check for record keeping? happened to my brother
>>
>>17232769
no, but could you answer my question if you have experience with it
>>
Yeah. You're fucked. As officers of the law they have a legal obligation to forward that shit on the the relevant authorities. It's part of the job. So when they see all your files that aren't attached to iTunes or anything, they'll ask for proof of purchase, you won't have shit, and they'll press charges for copyright infringement. Happened to my cousin.

Oh, and they'll forward your info to the RIAA so you can get fucked civilly tool. Hope you don't have any assets faggot.
>>
>>17232739
Are the laptop and phone related to the execution of the warrant?
>>
>>17232781
idk desu
>>17232780
any details on what happened to your cousin
>>
>>17232797
Took a plea deal for 2 years of probation, got fined like $50k but he was broke, so they just ruined his credit and now garnish his wages until the balance is payed off.
>>
>>17232804
shit. thx for the replies
>>
>>17232772
the pirated music? my brother had gigs of that and they never said anything
>>
i really doubt they will. i tried to commit suicide once and the police went through my room, they saw the fucking umpteen cartoons of contraband cigarettes and they didn't do shit about it.
and music piracy is generally left to civil courts anyway
>>
>>17232898
but this was years ago and i think they were primarily concerned with finding the stuff i tried to kill myself with

fuck you op for not telling us what you did on an anonymous imageboard.
>>
Can, but probably won't.

It's not enough for them to find files without receipts. The burden of proof is them, so they'll have to sort through IP records and find a paper trail, and even then they'll have to show that you- and ONLY you- had access to the computer.

>what are passwords
