Jeremy Banks v. Seventh Circuit

In April 2021, a Springfield police officer saw Snapchat post of Jeremy Banks barbecuing on his front porch with a gun sitting on the grill side shelf. Because banks was a convicted felon, the officers needed nothing more than to request a warrant to arrest him for his unlawful gun possession. But they skipped that step and instead proceeded to banks his home, walked onto his porch, and after a tussle, arrested him in the family room. The Seventh Circuit Judge Sykes scutter and leave that's up.
