That is incorrect. Surely in most cases it isn't, however, if the tip is followed by predictive behavior or incidents that were within the tip, it certainly is a viable element for a warrant. Each set of circumstances must be weighed individually. Don't be an ass and claim to know the Cat's law. That is why so many mice are in jail.

Of course at the point the predictive behavior or incident occurs you will likely consider that more than an anonymous tip. There are of course instances when a search can be done without a warrant if the tip included exigent circumstances such as risk to human life etc.

Note I am only replying to your blanket statement, not any particular search.

An anonymous tip is not enough for probable cause to raid a home.
