A: Huh? You have consent to search the residence? Why do you want to search the residence? I suppose sure. If I tell someone, go ahead, you can search my house, then they can search my house at least until I revoke that consent.

Are you really asking if you can give the police to search your husband's trailer which is in his name only?
