Man Picks Bad Spot for Alleged Drug Deal
Tue Dec 14, 7:08 PM ET Add to My Yahoo! Strange News - AP
NEZPERCE, Idaho - A man picked the wrong location for an alleged drug deal. Telling an eyewitness to mind his own business was also not a good idea. It was in front of the home of Lewis County's sheriff-elect, who was sitting on his front porch.
"They really picked the wrong house to be in front of," said Phil Steen, who will be sworn into office next month.
Steen had only lived in the home about three weeks when he decided to enjoy the Saturday evening air. But some suspicious activity on the street impaired his view.
Steen saw what he thought was a drug deal in the street. When those involved noticed him watching, they simply told him to "look away," Steen said.
Instead of looking elsewhere, Steen ran the suspects' license plates. It led to a search of two houses and a vehicle, then the arrest of James MacArthur, 46.
MacArthur is charged with possession of marijuana with intent to deliver, unlawful possession of a firearm and possession of drug paraphernalia.
About 16 grams of marijuana was confiscated, along with a rifle and a shotgun, Steen said. The investigation is continuing.

Now all of the drug dealers in town know where the policeman lives I would imagine...
...things might not be as good as he hoped if he's not careful...

I'd be sketchy about ANYONE seeing me deal, if I knew he was a cop or not. Any person, cop or not, could alert the authorities about suspicious behavior. That guy was begging to get caught.

He basically deserved to get caught, that guy was an idiot. If I was dealing and some random guy say me and knew I was dealing, I would get my ass to a new spot pronto.

What exactly constitutes "possession of drug paraphernalia" ? Pipes, scales, syringes, what kind of stuff? That sounds like an utterly ludicrous offence.

^ just like if you had a pipe with marijuana resin in it they can charge you with possession of paraphernalia... and its obsurd, but then again most american laws are obsurd and pushing the limits of our constitutional rights.
