That's how it SHOULD be, but that is not how the law works in the USA. Any guest of your property can let in a LEO; they can even come in if a door is left open. It is NOT trespassing for a law enforcement officer on duty, he/she is NOT a normal citizen at that point, they are in a position of power.Well, a good lawyer would probably say that since your brother is not a legal resident in your place he had no right inviding them in, in which case they were trasspassing while they searched your house...Are you ganna loose the scholarship now?
The possiblity of him losing his scholarship, in my opinion, is nill. As of now, this is an accusation and he is not a high-profile student such as an athlete. If the case is pursued before he graduates, I personally, would suggest appealing until graduation. The scholarship will likely be pulled immediately following the person/organization learning of the accusations (spring term, fall if he's lucky).
I'm sorry brotha. I'm also a college student that grows and I feel your pain.
