i woke up to a light knocking on my door, not insistent like a normal police knock or even just like a person trying to knock on your door. it was about 1AM and he knocked once for about three seconds and did not say it was the police. by the time I got dressed he was in his car across the street and I didn't care to go ask him there. any ideas on what he could have wanted? honestly its got me a little paranoid, but there is no reason I could see that he should have been there.

He wanted to drive you to ask a question on the Shroomery that no-one can possibly answer.
I guess it worked.

What one person receives without working for another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for that my dear friend is the beginning of the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it. ~ Adrian Rogers

i don't think so, I feel like they would have been more insistent if that was the case. it was super weird, it was like they knocked but they didn't really care if anyone answered.

Hmmmm. You been doing illegal thangz lately? Id clean house if you have anything to worry about and see if they come back.
I'm thinking they had the wrong house. But idk all the details. Maybe they noticed someone on /around your property and wanted to make sure the people in the house were ok and then when no one answered, he figured you were sleeping. Idk just trying to brain storm.

yeah, its super weird. I do have illegal shit in the house but nothing that should have roused any suspicion. plus if it was to arrest me or search the place I doubt they would have been so polite as to knock light enough to not wake everyone up and leave after knocking once. like I knock harder on my friends doors. also it was one cop, if it was for anything serious they would have more than that. im sure im just being paranoid wondering but I just cant stand not knowing. I bet some shit happened nearby and they were wondering if we saw or something, I do live on a main street by a college campus.

I've had cops knock on my door to ask me questions about whether or not I witnessed an incident on the street. I'm sure it was nothing...
...or they might be rolling up any minute in riot gear to raid your ass...

Ha that's comforting to think about, really wish you wouldn't have said that. im about to leave for a few months and leave all my illegal shit with a friend and have been pretty much clean for eight months. that shit would suck so bad...

Likely there was a burglary in your neighborhood and he was asking if you saw anything odd.

for sure, that's what im thinking. people get stabbed and shot all the time around here. just makes me sick to think about getting fucked after i've gotten my life turned around to the point i'm in control and not using anything as a crutch. in any case they haven't been back and i rode around on my longboard and no one is watching the place so i doubt i have anything to worry about.

A random cop isn't likely to come up to your door on a hunch that you're up to no good. What purpose could it possibly serve? Unless you answer the door carrying a severed limb or a bucket of morphine nothing is going to come of it. When it comes to serious issues, the cops come hard, or not all.

Bucket of morphine.....lol
Maybe it wasn't a cop but a burgular dressed as one, and he stole a police car and after he knocked lightly and you didn't answer he assumed no one was home and he snuck in and stole your electronics.

He was probably wanting to ask about something else that happened in the neighborhood to get more witnesses.
I'm not sure how engaged you are into illegal activity, but say a neighbor reported your ass thinking you were making illegal drugs, then it's possible they will knock on your door to ask you about it to try and get you to let them in your house since they don't have enough evidence for a search warrant. I wouldn't rule out the possibility anyways. I know this is how a kid near me was busted for a few weed plants in his house. He was snitched on so the cops just knocked on his door and he let them in his house (NEVER EVER DO THIS IF THERE'S NO WARRANT - DON'T EVEN OPEN THE DOOR FOR THE POLICE, I ALWAYS TALK TO THEM THROUGH THE WINDOW OR COME OUT FROM MY BACK DOOR AND MEET THEM OUT FRONT), and they found his plants through "the smell". Probably not the case in your situation but something to think about.
Also do you have any relatives with warrants or room-mates who may have warrants?

Either you are doing something illegal, or there has been incidents in the neighborhood that require investigation. That or he wrong housed you.

They might have been looking for someone and wanted to ask if you heard or saw anything but then got a call that they found him. Or he's a douchebag prankster.

At least six of them didn't come kicking down your door at 4am, killing your dog, traumatizing your children for the rest of their lives, shooting your wife in the arm on accident bringing you to shoot at someone discharging a firearm in her direction. Hooray for police raids.

My friend had a cop do that to his house when we were really young. We were playing basketball down the road so the cop didn't say anything to us. But with the area being somewhat nice, my friend was almost shitting his pants.
I'd say your fine. Police most likely won't go looking for you at 1am if they want to find you.

Actually they like to come on the weekends at midnight - 1AM if they want you (at least around here) so they can A. hold you in jail over the weekend, B. catch you off-guard, and C. hopefully catch you in the act of something else criminal (as that's when most people are doing drugs / partying / whatever in their home). At least this is my observation of where I live. if they don't have a warrant they tend to come real early in the morning, 4-7am ish.
