Is this a guaranteed way for a dealer to beat a home search by police?


You are a suspected drug dealer, and cops show up at your house with a warrant to search and a canine unit to sniff out and lead the police to contraband.

For example, there are companies that manufacture hiding places for goods, such as fake wall outlets, fake pipes to put up in utility rooms or crawl spaces, etc.

Police don't consult with plumbers and electricians when they do home searches, and aren't going to take sledgehammers to walls and pipes unless the drug dog leads them straight there specifically.
