I never understood how it was legal for these officers to carry drugs around (in their pockets? trunk?) for the purposes of planting evidence.
Shouldn't they face possession charges? Unless they are transporting newly acquired evidence that is associated with a documented investigation to the police station for storage they shouldn't be allowed to carry drugs around.
- criddell 9y agoJust to be fair, the police car and all the property in the car should be seized under forfeiture laws. :)
- scott00 9y agoIt's not legal. Planting evidence is a much more serious crime than possession, so in cases where there's evidence of planting evidence, it doesn't make much sense to charge possession. In cases where there isn't planting going on, it never gets discovered. Police officers don't stop other police officers and search them.
