Busted But They Don't Ask Questions?

AFOAF (no REALLY) got popped for a "large amount", and my friend was there said he got popped for his bag and pipe.
Anyway, my friend calls tonight to tell me that "they didn't ask him any questions" (which struck him as weird), and asks me to apologize to his "main-man" for him.
Several theories:
1) In his head they are performing a HUGE investigation with a long paper-trail. He thinks someone talked. Maybe they did?
2) In my mind they have bigger fish to fry in this area with the meth-heads than to even worry about an investigation into marijuana (yeah, only pot as far as I know).
3) He's making up some bogus bust in order to screw his connection out of the goods/money.
What do you think? When they make a large seizure do they list the arrest in the paper (maybe I should start there)?

Well, you could check you local court dockets to verify the bust and amounts. Thats public record and often available online.
Then go from there.

Yes, true...I searched the internet last night, but all I could find was "arrest records" for sale as a service.
I'll check today for "court dockets", and maybe I'll get some different hits. I just don't see myself strolling into the PD or the courthouse to try and figure this one out. LOL

First off, if cops were involved, you shouldn't be apologizing to anyone.
I would have to go with theories 2 and 3.
If your friend wasn't asked many questions, then LEO may be out to catch bigger fish, such as the "main-man".
I'd cool off and stay away from that crowd for awhile.

Id go with 2. He may be on a watch list for a little bit, and might want to watch himself, but i would just go on with life and make sure i look as clean as possible to any cop that might look my way.

Yeah, I wasn't too worried for myself, but the other parties involved.
I'm pretty laid back, and on the down-low. I have an entirely different circle of friends, and I haven't even been seen with this friend for many months (at best).
The only reason (that I could think of) that they would even want to keep an eye on me is because of the telophone call he made to me last night from his cellular phone. LOL
He was trying to get ahold of the "main-guy", but couldn't. I wasn't about to tell someone that just got busted that this person is indeed out of town (at a show for a couple of days).
I don't even know if I should try to call that person myself because I don't want to mess up their good time. However, maybe they would want to know sooner than later?
IDK, I'm in a toss-up about this too...

I would definitely tell your guy what's up as soon as you can. I've seen all three possibilities happen so there's really no way to guess.
Usually when someone says that they didn't ask any questions it's been the case that they ratted. I would assume that this guy is a cop stoolie now. Every time I've seen someone get busted big and then have no charges (or small ones) come of it, it's because they rolled.

Yes, that is the conclusion I am now coming to.
I mean who the hell apologizes for getting busted? Then in the same paragraph states "well, I don't want the paper-trail to get back to them".
I'm not sure if it was him that rolled or the friend he was with (both knew the higher-up), but I'm getting this feeling that someone's become a big, dirty rat OR a fat-ass liar.
I got ahold of the one at the top of the totem, and they had just gotten off the phone with him. The direct quote from them, "I don't know why he felt it has anything to do with me."
Some people are SO oblivious!

He probably said that so not to incriminate himself over the phone. Much better than "I can't believe the cops got all of Dudes dope and now I'm not going to get my money". IMO your friend/s rolled.

depends what a large amount is.
I've been handcuffed along with 10+ other people while 2 lbs were found in someones trunk (I had no idea, I was just there to get a blunt!), and they came out with regular cops, swat, and k-9s.
The crazy shit was, they just fucked with everyone for an hour, took the bud and drove off - nobody went to jail, got tickets, anything. Never heard about it again.

That makes for a few grateful people, a lot of stoned cops, and OH-so many doughnuts consumed!

I was with a friend when he got busted, and he happened to have a quarter and an eighth, bagged separately. Somehow when his court date came, there was only one bag, and it only contained a gram.
The worst thing that can happen to a bag.....get smoked by cops.

In this case maybe it was the best thing that could have happened to it.

He's really lucky. This kind of thing happens A LOT. I've had friends have ounces turn into grams a couple times before. More than once it's ended up putting someone under the limit for much more serious charges.

Yeah.. a friend of mine was bringing a qp up from florida back to PA. In Virginia or Georgia they got pulled over by some good ol' boy cops. The buds got found because they were stoned out of their minds.
They got released, but had to show back up for court. When they got there, there was exactly 27 grams left, 1 gram short of a felony charge for trafficking, and felony posession.
When the cop laid out the evidence, he just smiled at them and walked away.
Crazy shit.
