House to house searches of a neighborhood without a warrant in this situation sounds quite excessive--and frightening.
Not if the neighbors were concerned and cooperative after learning one of their neighbors had been shot and gave consent. There's nothing in the article that indicates these searches were conducted in an unlawful manner, and it's quite a leap to suggest otherwise. As for the neighbor who was not allowed to leave, perhaps leaving necessitated her having to enter the crime scene, and as such was not allowed until some preliminary investigation was conducted. Other than that, I see no indication of a lockdown in the neighborhood.
