There is no way he wins a suit. Smart move is to walk away.

I feel bad for this dude but I can’t help asking: Why was this guy taking 91 lbs. of tortilla dough on vacation?
And here’s a pro-tip: when the cops start asking you if you have anything illegal and ask you if you don’t mind them taking a little peek, tell them NO. They will bitch, attempt to browbeat you, and tell you that if you’re innocent then you have nothing to hide. Bull, do you want to wind up like this guy? They’ll tell you that if you don’t consent, you’ll wind up sitting on the side of the road for 4 hours while they go get a warrant. FINE! To get a warrant, Deputy Dawg has to have something solid up-front, which he doesn’t, he’s just fishing for a felony arrest and a promotion. No cop is going to sit with you for hours to get a warrant, they’re too damn lazy. They’ll bitch at you, talk to you like your 7 years old, probably cite you for something stupid, and send you on your way with a sneer. No worries, that’s the best way it could’ve went. Don’t ever invite them to tear apart your car while you sit in the cop car and can’t even watch what they’re tearing into.

Since Mr Hernandez did absolutely nothing wrong, I think the County owes him for all of his expenses plus a two days pay for every day he was held. that should cover his lost vacation days.
I cannot understand how anyone would expect an emigrant who speaks Spanish as a first language to be able to understand a Tarheel hillbilly from North Carolina. Accents (regional and foreign) do funny things with the English language.

a mix of cheese, shrimp and tortilla and tamale dough Oh, man. That'll go to your head quicker than a swishy modiste flying on a blank check.

He attempted to leave the scene when the officer pulled up.............According to the report, when the officers first pulled up, he talked with them, and told them he was lost, and needed directions............

The offered $400. Take it. The tires and impound, and his time in the pokey will ALL be found, by a court, to have been based on probable cause and reasonable reliance on the drug test.
No way the system is going to accept a penalty for this. Heck, guys have been jailed for YEARS on prosecutorial misconduct, and all they get in recovery is an "Oops."
