    ... you can store police in subterranean dungeons this constitutes false imprisonment. I also very much doubt that all actions short of crippling or killing someone are legal.

    This is a question that includes both hypothetical and real-world examples to explore current law. You have not addressed any of the questions of law in this answer.

    @helena4 Actually, you would be vicariously liable for this. You paid for this to be done on your property.

    @feetwet the law where i am is speculative, the law here he is - I am not aware of. Thus the best thing i could do is advise him not to kill cops. Which is on its own worthy enough of saying - don't you think? And don't worry a competent lawyer can do plenty if there is no serious damage done. The same can be said for the police, there is plenty to hang on to with this kind of behavior.

    "Don't kill cops" is something you could find anywhere on the internet. This is Law Stack Exchange - your answer should be supported by references to law wherever possible. There are at least two questions that you did not address in your answer: .. can I be compelled by a court to grant safe access for law enforcement to carry out the search warrant? And if, despite the clear warning, the police decide to press on with their search and an officer is injured or killed, can I be held criminally or civilly liable for that casualty?
