Unfortunately the areas that were searched are the most common areas for law-breakers to hide things they don’t want found. They use our moral compasses’ against us, just as the Vietcong did. Kids with grenades, women with bombs, etc.
Ever hear the joke about the man who lost his keys in the dark, when asked why he was searching under the street lamp 30 feet away he said “because the light is better here”. If one is looking for something, it’s best to look in the most likely places rather than those places where it is least likely but more comfortable.
