Who should have been arrested in this case?

Whom do YOU suggest? After all, what's Habeas Corpus and the Fourth Ammendment when there is cash to confiscate, vehicles to impound and sell for profit...

I thought that you needed to PROVE who the guilty party was...not just spread the guilt around!

Personally...I think the driver should be the one responsible, just like the Captain of a vessel. If the driver is NOT the owner of the vehicle, the suspect can refer the Police to the person responsible.

HOW is a passenger in the back seat able to be found guilty for what is in the GLOVE COMPARTMENT?!

Can this ruling be applied to a car with POLITICIANS/JUDGES and OTHER POLICE when the get caught?...

Didn't think so.

Arrests do not equal guilt, and usually arrests occur before proving guilt or innocence...

The drugs weren't in the glove compartment. They were in the armrest in the back seat.

Three bad guys confront another. One pulls a gun, one shot fired, the guy dies. All three are charged with murder. You don't agree?
