Believe what you want, this is like talking to a wall. I'm done until you start using proper legal lexicon to show me that you genuinely understand how law works. I have experience in the legal system, working in a criminal defense firm. Apparently I knew enough to keep from getting arrested... but hey, I don't know what I'm talking about.
It would not give probable cause. THe first thing a decent attorney would say to such a claim is that any person could have typed the text message. They have no hard evidence tying it to you - UNLIKE a voice print which can clearly denote a person's identity. An officer knows this. It could give him reasonable suspicion, but that wouldn't give him the ability to search you, nor would it give him the ability to arrest you.
Even if it gave probable cause, it is not enough evidence to convict. As an example, hearsay is considered probable cause evidence, and yet is completely inadmissable in court as evidence. There are levels to measure the amount of warrant an officer has, and that translates into whether you experience a "mere encounter," a terry stop, or a custodial situation.
I'm done here. Listen to whatever you want and believe what you want.

You guys are both stupid and use the same source-less claims to attack each other.
Problems w/ cell phones, text mssg's:
1. Can be seized incident to search OR arrest, esp a drug-related arrest, whether or not there is an arrest/ search warrant (i.e. You can be arrested and jailed for a 26 in a 25 speeding ticket in some states- at po po's discretion.) See: United States v. Lazcano-Villalobos, 175 F.3d 838, 844 (10th Cir. 1999)[regarding the seizure of the phone, not the speeding arrest, though I can provide citations for that if ya'll want and I get around to it.]
2. The records of the tower's transmissions easily establish what handset sent the message and when, verifying any data recovered from the phone.
3. Text messages stored by the service provider can be seized via warrant, and such does not need to meet the heightened standards (Electronic Communications Privacy Act of 1986) required for an actual wiretap. See: United States v. Steiger, 318 F.3d 1039, 1048-49 (11th Cir. 2003)
4. Once obtained (through an informant, annonomys tip, warrant), the content of the text messages are sufficient to allow warrants to issue to the service provider housing information related to the text messages. See: USA v. Jones; 451 F. Supp. 2d 71; (D.C.-2006)

Wiggles,
If you get your rights violated its a crapshoot that you'll see the misteps corrected within a reasonable amount of time.
Even if the cops do break the law, you wanna lose your job, money, whatever the cops seize, and possibly sit in jail for years before the appealatte courts see the case?
Once the cops start looking at you , it's a huge impact on your life and freedom wheather or not you are ever convicted or charged.
You strike me as naive, but maybe you're just being a devil's advocate or something.

Yes. Actual judicial precedents! Good post.
