Yeah, 10 million might be a stretch. But the city I used to work in would immediately settle for 250k for something like that. Lawyers are expensive, and losing is more expensive
10M was a stretch for sure, but a family in Jolliet recently got 2.9M USD for the police raiding the wrong house and quite a while back Dr. Lawrence Crosby got 1.25M USD for the police arresting him for the theft of his own car based on an anonymous tip.
Those are accidents vs the op which was not an accident. It was legit the right place and searching for the right thing. They had some evidence to do the search legally. So your comment and this hypothetical aren’t quite the same.
The judge and jury don’t know about the accident. The judge and jury will see that police raided an older couple’s house based on at most a stock photo, an anonymous tinder account, a photo of school laboratory from an unknown source (anon’s not even a real chemist), and an IP address which can be spoofed.
In fact, they don’t even know anon is involved at all.
