“I feel I did the right thing by calling the Moorhead police.”

That was her first, and biggest mistake.

The mysterious woman gave her the money.....the waitress should have thanked God and her lucky stars and kept her mouth shut.

Does this mean we can now start seizing bank accounts of the Police because they are funded with “drug money”?? What’s good for goose...

The next time a cop comes in and after having his doughnut and coffee leaves a tip...once he leaves she needs to report it to the Police HQ as drug money and give a discription of the individual who left it.

Freaking parasites!

I never really thought about this. When does drug money become ‘clean’? What does it say that until the money is injected into the government does it become no longer illegal.
But really what we should take away from this is:
NEVER TALK TO THE POLICE IF YOU DON’T HAVE TO.
If you have to have a legal representative present.
They are not your friends, they are not there to help you.
Interacting with police could have a good result, it could also have a really terrible result, not interacting at all will always has the same result.

I wholeheartedly agree, the Police are not your friends, and they never will be. Funny when they were “Peace Officers” the vast majority of America respected them, but since their transformation into “Law Enforcement officers” a growing majority now despises them and does not trust them, for we the people are finally waking up and realizing that they are nothing more than Hired AGents to enforce tyrannical laws and TAX Citizens for Petty offenses. Remember kids, No Person In AMERICA is REQUIRED to SPEAK to a POLICE OFFICER EVER, and unless the Revenue Agent can demonstrate a “REASONABLE SUSPICION” that a crime has been committed, you DO NOT have to produce Identification EVER.

sometimes I really hate some cops

all jacked up like Spec Ops...like they are at war...even in soft places

silly

whatever happened to real people being cops without all the hardware and attitude?

around here we have local cops camped out on interstates in the medians watching every car that passes looking for pay days..sitting their in confiscated SUVs..all blacked out...reminds me of Elian

trust me...they would rather find money than dope

if they cannot prove that was a criminal that gave her proven ill gotten gains then they are full of crap

we have sure let a lot of rights fade for a safety I don’t much feel

Have a C-note here that says that $12K went to the “widows and orphans fund”.

Any takers?

If by that you mean the cop’s back pocket, then yes...
