"she did not know at the time that drug dealers often carry drugs in condoms. "I was naive, really stupid," she said."

Ah. So the City of Philadelphia is then expected to pay for her ignorance? She bears no responsibility for what happened?

Oh. And how do we know this wasn't a dry run for smuggling real drugs?

By all means she should be prosecuted under every law that prohibits the carrying of a rubber full of flour (three counts).

Ignorance of law should be an imprisonable offense in and of itself now? How many prisons do you want to build?

No; the City of Philadelphia is paying for the wrongful imprisonment of an innocent person, resulting from the negligent behavior of their police and the complicity of a judge who set the ridiculously high bail.

Yeah let's see the DA use that to make his case.

Yes. Or more accuarately, their own ignorance and stupidity and incompetence.

None. Zero. Nada. Unless carrying flour in rubbers is a crime now.

Oh. And how do we know this wasn't a dry run for smuggling real drugs?

Who cares if it was or wasn't. This isn't Oceania in 1984. We don't have thought crimes in this country, at least I hope not. But there's no surprise you are once again defending the drug warriors, even at their greatest height of incompetence.
