I am eager to see if there WAS probable cause; in some cases, there might be. But the way the sweep is being conducted, and the way zoning/violations law was abused to further harass those arrested (and not arrested; if there was 'probable cause,' why were there no arrests at so many of these places?) makes me think we'll find out precious few of these searches were made with any probable cause at all.
