Only a civil suit will bring out the truth and we could predict with certainty
that no information will be released to the public. The reason would be in
the interest of (cough) public trust.
They talked to the police, if they had not, all this mess might not have happened.
All they had to do was hand the officer the receipt. BUT!
There is also something that bothers me about this case, that is if the
lady was pharmacy shopping for pseudoephedrine products. If anybody buys to
many they could be arrested and investigated. The limit is
TITLE VII--COMBAT METHAMPHETAMINE EPIDEMIC ACT OF 2005
""monthly sales to no more than 9.0 grams per purchaser""
The Sudo she was buying contains 3.6 GRAMS per box, so if she bought more than
two boxes in 30-days then the local police would be notified, but ultimately
the DEA would bring the drug charges. The police were there fast which also brings up
the question of how many they purchased and if they were actually being investigated.
It is the judge’s duty to require the cop to justify the warrant. What is the point of the 4th Amendment, if judges just issue upon request? I’ve lost more respect for judges these last few years than I have for cops. Totally irresponsible children, all of them.
As for any investigation. If charges were dropped, then the cops were over reacting to minimal information. Meth labs don’t flush down toilets.
Most likely, she was just replacing misplaced medicine, getting some because she had none on her and needed it, or multiple people in her family needed medication for allergies. If she was cooking meth, they’d have gotten her.
