Provides that residential search warrants shall be prohibited unless they involve violent felonies as defined by 18 U.S.C. 16; the illegal manufacture, distribution, or sale of narcotics, firearms, or munitions; property crimes over $1,000; or when necessary to protect a person from a threat of physical harm.
