Maybe not. But don't they have other things to do? You know, like catching REAL criminals.
It's as if the cop wants to start a confrontation. I don't trust any of them anymore. Just isn't safe.
And that was the whole deal here. The LEO had nothing better to do.
Did ya notice this was Iowa?
He was fishing. Most LEO’s do that as a matter of routine especially with young people and in smaller less populated venues.
In those venues they know they can push around and take advantage of some people....The infraction of a headlight turned into a potential pot caper. Of course this young person had a brain and could see he was suddenly part of his fishing adventure.
This cop wouldn’t last long in a venue like So. Central LA etc.
Most big camp LEO’s find out fast there is actual real crime all around and they certainly don’t have to go fishing for young people to mess with like this cop did.
Officer Aaron King best stay away from the bad camps and senseless murder districts. He wouldn’t like dealing with the real deal on single every shift. Folks in those camps have little or no fear and less to lose.
I don’t trust any of them anymore.

That’s a good attitude to have as long as you know your rights and behave according to the law. If a police officer suspects you’re breaking the law, he’s not your friend, he’s your adversary and he can lie and trick you to further his investigation. In this case the officer told the person he was free to go. If a police officer ever tells you that, you should go. “Am I free to go?” is also a very good question to ask a police officer.
