Well, Bob, there are all sorts laws against BP agents/LEO's accepting bribes from criminal enterprises. We all know that. That much is a given. So I won't try to dig up the specific criminal codes that deal with it.

Having said that, the prosecutor in question would have to go through the agent's financial background, and dig up records/evidence/testimony with regards to the bribes in order to establish the quid pro quo between the two parties. Having done all of that he could then legitimately claim that the agent in question had probable cause to take down the the "drug mule" from the opposing cartel.

Of course, Sutton never attempted to claim that R & C were "on the take". So you are just grasping at straws.

Well you know, drug runners don’t usually give receipts while a slug in someones back is a little more, shall we say, palpable?

“So I won’t try to dig up the specific criminal codes that deal with it.”

I’m sorry, it sounded like you were putting yourself up as someone who knew what they were talking about.
