So finding a corpse in the backyard isn't probable cause and they had to return with a warrant? Surely I'm not reading that correctly.

Nope, that's the way it's supposed to be. You need a warrant to enter unless there's exigent circumstances, which doesn't include evidence of a crime outside the house.
Well, there is precedent for wider interpretations of need, but so far, it is still limited to a reasonable suspicion of a crime being in progress, or of evidence being destroyed.
Which, I would say that bodies on the ground would be enough to stand up to scrutiny later, but it's still better to cover your ass, and get the warrant while observing by legal means. You already know it's going to be a murder case, so you don't want to fuck up admissibility.
Mind you, that's from multiple conversations with family that practice law, or work in law enforcement, and having a friend that's a sheriff. Most of the time, policy is to make sure the case is solid if nobody is in danger, with those people I've talked to.
crime being in progress
Thank you! Makes sense now.
The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.
It is probable cause. Probable cause to go get a warrant issued to allow them to search the house. America has some very strong protections for people suspected of criminal offenses.
Perfect reply! I get it.
Feels like Halloween has come early.
Halloween is light hearted. This woman heard the stories of Baba Yaga and wanted to be like her. Or, more likely, had some serious mental health issues.

They should have sent Hellboy.
more likely
Now I ain't Doctor Phil. But I'm willing to say that with greater confidence than more likely. We're talking 100% bonafide cuckoo for cocoa puffs.
What if she's right? What if eating those women actually gave her superpowers or immortality or whatever bullshit she believed?
Probably wouldn't have gotten arrested I guess
Kentucky fried human
Double finger licking good.
