My kid along with half the kids in America have smoked pot as I did when I was young. Does that give the cops an excuse to plow through your front door to search the place?
How about them doing L police work like going after the bankers that have been screwing folks with unfair mortgage practices? Nah, that would take some brains.
From what I’m hearing the informant gave bad information. He was supposedly growing some pot plants and that hasn’t panned out. I feel sorry for the detective’s family, they seem to be lovely people, but I also feel terrible for the “defendant” whose house was robbed not too long before this incident. To call it first degree murder implies that he planned to kill this detective, but I don’t think this charge is going to stick. I hope he gets a good lawyer.
