The officer was just upset that the guy had eaten the donuts before they could be confiscated.

Michelle says that there’s nothing worse for you than eating glazed doughnuts. I used to comfort myself with one on the train.

I warned them about problems with using "Old Diabetes" as their canine unit. He'll alert on anything edible and the only time he found drugs was a bag of pot brownies.

You would think doughnuts are something police would have some expertise in.

Daniel Rushing is going to be awarded a big pot of money after he sues the dumb cops who arrested him.

The idiots should have been FIRED.

Any officer that cannot identify doughnut glaze has no business being on the force.

“An internal affairs report released Thursday by the Orlando Police Department found no evidence she acted in bad faith.”

Shocker.

“The report says the department never trained its officers to use the department-issued roadside drug tests.”

Oh?
Do tell.
Someone explain to me how incompetence and ignorance is a defense of poor decisions?
The department should face sanction for not properly training their officers.

Those roadside tests are notoriously unreliable.

If she’d shot him, they’d have said she was just following training.

This reminds me of the attention I once garnered from another motorist down south when I could only find “headache powders” for my headache. White dust in a white folder...

Rushing told officers it was likely sugar from Krispy Kreme doughnuts he'd eaten but roadside drug tests were positive for the illegal substance.

Is that why Meth Addicts always want to go to the gas station and pick up some Krispy Kreme doughnuts ?

And it's not any doughnut that will do. Has to be Krispy Kreme.

"I recognized, through my eleven years of training and experience as a law enforcement officer, the substance to be some sort of narcotic," the report said."

Let's underline this: Part of the usual "testilying" is working in "my XX years of training and experience" early and often, unprompted. And his pretending that his "training and experience" wasn't sufficient to tell the difference between crack -- or meth, when that became the better drug of choice for whatever reason -- isn't "bad faith" in the eyes of the department? The answer is: because we're living in a police state, folks.

Daniel Rushing was arrested Dec. 11, 2015, when an Orlando police officer mistook crumbs of doughnut glaze for amphetamine. Rushing is a retired city of Orlando employee

A state crime lab test cleared Rushing several weeks later, and charges were dropped.

I wonder if they gave him his lawyer and money back.

The Officer? should have to spend hour for hour that he spent in jail.

But on the bright side, he wasn’t killed, so I guess that he count his blessings.

The glaze is not always from a donut.
