This might be a handy book to have for counter-intelligence...

Kane deputy pens book on drug trade
Charles Haines said it wasn’t hard for him to write his new book, “In Roads: A Working Solution to America’s War on Drugs”. He felt so passionately about the topic, the words just came pouring out.
“America’s War on Drugs has become such a cliche saying,” Haines said. “But to me it’s not a cliche. It’s the greatest struggle we face. To me, there’s no greater cause.”
Haines is not his real name. It’s the pseudonym of a Kane County sheriff’s deputy, who has asked that his name not be used because of his work investigating the drug trade.
Haines has worked for 13 years in law enforcement, mostly as a traditional patrol officer who happens to have a knack for targeting drug traffickers.
Haines said he was inspired to write “In Roads” when he heard a startling statistic: 87 percent of people arrested test positive for drugs. That means almost all crime has a single common element. And yet most departments have a few officers dedicated to drug investigations while the rest of the patrol is given little or no training on interrupting the drug trade.
But it is possible for patrol officers who are handling regular calls to also be looking for signs of the drug trade. Haines would know.
On Super Bowl Sunday in 2007, he saw a motor home with Arizona plates at a hotel near Aurora. He wondered why someone would bring a motor home to Illinois in the winter. After some investigation, Haines found 660 pounds of marijuana in a false bottom below the luggage panel.
In April 2011, he pulled a woman over near Elgin for failing to signal. The deputy became suspicious when the driver with Texas plates didn’t know anyone in Chicago, even though she was in town for a two-day vacation. Haines asked to search the truck and found bolts and fresh tool marks near the rear axle. The deputy tapped on the drive shaft and got a dull thud. The car was towed, and deputies found 14 bags of heroin — worth $2.1 million — in the drive shaft, one of the largest drug busts in county history.
Haines said his 144-page book is a call to police officers and the community to step up and get involved.
The book was published in December 2011, but Haines didn’t start actively publicizing the book until last month. So far, he’s been mainly targeting police groups to sell the book.
The book includes some statistics and facts he’s learned about the drug trade, as well profiles of three officers who helped design important drug investigation techniques. The book also includes a narrative from Haines’ trip from Texas to Illinois along likely drug-trade routes. Along the way, he rode with three different police departments.
Haines hopes the book is an inspiration for police departments. He’s already heard that some officers plan to slip it under the chief’s door, as a not-so-subtle hint that more drug interruption training for deputies is needed.
“It falls on all of us,” he said. “It’s staggering. It’s sad. No wonder crime is where it’s at.”
“In Roads” is available on amazon.com and barnesandnoble.com.

The last fucking thing the world needs is a cop that thinks he should be a policy maker.

See a problem there?
Not everyone who gets arrested is tested for drugs. So the whole premise of this book is that drugs cause crime and/or are a unifying trait? I think cops cause crime, without cops no one would be arrested.
The biggest crimes of our day are most likely beyond this cops ability to understand them or make an arrest.

Further more you cant make an honest comparison when 80% of the time someone gets arrested its because of drug possession.

Is that 87% statistic including alcohol? I don't think they test people all that often either after arresting people. This guy sounds like a fucking moron, you are writing a book about fixing the drug problem in america and all you could turn out is 144 fucking pages?
Another thing to consider is criminals don't have any respect for drug laws to begin with so of course they would be more likely to get arrested than people that don't break the law at all. Arresting people for low court BS possession charges isn't going to fix shit.

I cannot believe you posted this crap on the shroomery. 
The last thing this world needs is one more cop with a "more of the same" approach towards drug policy. 
What we really need is the public and major politicians understanding that a change in paradigm is overdue.

Why? The reason I posted it is because I like to learn what cops look for that get people in trouble, here is a book that details exactly that. It helps you to learn the techniques of the enemy to help protect our brothers and sisters fighting the good fight on the front lines. It is hard to know every detail of what may or may not be liable to get someone in trouble, but knowledge is power. If this guy wants to give us all his tactics wrapped up in a nice little book - great.
Also it says they have it at Barnes and Noble, so you don't even have to support the jerk, you can go there, have a coffee, and browse through the book and leave it there.
I also agree with your comment about the last thing the world needs - but I found some of the info interesting and thought others would too, sorry if I offended your sense of purity for the Shroomery News Forum there bro...no harm intended.

That doesn't sound too reassuring. I bet it's a bad-structured 144-page rant, regurgitating every single misconception concerning drug trade & use, sprinkled with a dash of misguiding statistics.

Yeah I would say every single statistic in the book is probably wrong, every opinion in the book is probably not going to register as valid to anyone here, but the techniques he uses to detect something out-of-place that he is trying to teach other officers - that info probably has something useful in it. I refuse to buy the book, but I might thumb through a copy in a bookstore and check that out if I am ever in one that has a copy. Can't say I'd go out of my way to do that, but I am interested in learning what variables get people busted when all else is going well.

What constitutes "some investigation"? Is having out of state license plates probable cause for an illegal search? I wonder if the people that owned the RV gave consent instead of telling him to fuck off and see if he could get a warrant due to the fact they were there "out of season".

police don't need probable cause to investigate unless they need to search or detain people as part of the investigation.
