The fact that Santonio got off base don the information, basically proves my point that cops abused their power. On top of that, Santonio offered up the marijuana in his car, and was completely compliant.
Following the arrest, the police commended Santonio on his willingness to comply with the pullover stop, and be very forthcoming with the drugs in his car. To the point where they asked the judge to take it into consideration.
Seems like a guilty conscious to me....
Not that any o fthi spost really corresponds to what you write purplehaze....I just hate unnecessary traffic stops based upon prejudices.
