“According to the complaint, Yeamans intentionally photographed the flowering hibiscus plants in such a manner as not to reveal that they had flowers on them so that they would appear to resemble marijuana plants.
Lurker...If your hibiscus is anything like our hibiscus...there’s no way photos could’ve been taken without showing flowers (...as long as the plants were in blooming season). Our blooms are prolific and as big as a man’s hand.

That and theres not the slightest resemblance between the leaves.
These cops should be prosecuted and stripped of their pensions.
