So it's about close to midnight, we box my car in my driveway and are all baked, my friend decides to pay for another bag of weed and we go to get it, i didn't drive because i had drank that night, we get the bag and put the weed in the trunk, then 10 minutes later a cop who has pulled me over 4 times in literally one week just because he hates me for NO REASON, we were literraly going 25 MPH, no lower, no higher, the whole way, they say it smells like weed which it does, search teh car find nothing, then he says can we search the trunk and i say no so he threatens the K-9 Units on us and say tehy're coming down, then he whispers in teh other cops ear and goes to the back seat and searches again and opens up the trunk from the back seat latch and says they can do that. they find the bag of weed and half a bottle of gin and we're all arrested
any suggestions?

if they dont find anything and say theyre bringing in a dog you dont have to wait for them. politely ask if youre free to leave (which you are) and go on your way next time.

Sorry to hear that, man, but why didn't you just put the weed in your crotch? A well placed sack can save your ass in times like these. In any case, you probably just got charged with misdemeanor possession correct? The most trouble that you will be in is maybe 1 year probation. If you get a decent lawyer you could get off with a fine.
A friend of mine always travels with his illegal shit in the trunk, too. I always tell him that if the cops really want to get in your trunk, they're going to get in there. Never travel with more than you are willing to eat and/or put safely in your crotch.

I have a really nice spot in the hood of my car, mainly for larger things, or harder drugs dogs can't smell.
But blissed is right, for a small bag of weed, the crotch is your best bet, YOU are the only thing the dog won't be sniffing when the dog gets there . ( though once I saw three people cuffed laying flat on the ground and they were walking around all three of them with a K-9 unit, this I don't think is legal ).
You may be able to fight it completely in court, because it sounds to me like that was illegal search and seizure, especially if he had no right to pull you over in the first place. In my state you can get that small stuff dropped to disorderly conduct, and then have it expondged in 2 years. Be careful, a lot of schools won't give you student loans if you have a drug charge on your record.

if you can get a lawyer and dont live near me you could proaly get this thrown out. If your trunk is locked they need a warrant. if a cop was fucking with me i would get him back without him knowing. ie find out where he lives and slash all his tires if possile. or put some dog shit under his car door handle.

Yeah about the locking thing.....my old dealer used to keep his stuff on the passenger seats floor in a locked box. He always told me that they need a special warrant to open it. Any thoughts on that?

That's really risky in any case. It's almost like flaunting that you are hiding something from the cops. Which they do not take kindly to. I got pulled over on the way to work once when I ws 16 and I had a lock box that had some baseball cards in it. The cop was like,"When the drug dogs get here they aren't going to be smelling anything in this box, are they?". I opened it up for him right away. I didn't have to, but after I did that, he turned out to be the coolest cop that I have ever had a run in with. He found a buddy's bong that had been accidentally left in my back seat floorboard and let us LEAVE WITH IT!! He told us that he used to be a hippie and that he was just making sure that we weren't getting fucked up and driving around, because he had a wife and kids on these roads and that we needed to hide the bong better before another cop found it and took us to jail for it. I wanted to kiss him! Why can't more cops be like that?

I think this is one of the most retarded rules ever, you can rape and murder and still get a student loan but have some pot and no loans for you!

Dude I just got out, dont take any felonies. I was committing prescription fraud, and they tried to charge me with trafficking heroin and cocaine because a friend of mine was caught and rolled over on me to save his own ass. The only reason I say all this is for the off chance shit hits the fan dont roll over and fight the charge I could have beaten everything except I was too late, now Iam a 19yr old with a felony and I have already seen how it hinders the development of a normal life.

I can't believe there are still states that arrest people with a little weed. In Cali it's about a $120 ticket for under an ounce as long as you aren't driving under the influence.

nah, its a pretty smart rule when you realize its purpose: to keep people like us poor and without influence.

Um, if you car smelled like weed, doesn't that give the officer probable cause to search your trunk?

If the cops stop you and do an intial search and find nothing, they are only allowed to have you stoped for 15 minutes.. I have used this to my advantage a few times. Talk to a lawyer!! Did you all get charged with possession? At the worst he can only really charge the person who owns the vehicle unless other people were holding aswell. Well good luck. Learn your rights it can save you in court sometimes!!!

thank you for all your opinions, this cop is literally the biggest dick hole though that was the 4th night in a ROW he's pulled me over, he's pulled me over 7 times in total just because he knows me and everytime i've been driving perfectly fine and he just makes up some bullshit everytime, he changed his story in the station and said at first it was speeding, then later said it was careless and he said speeding is part of carelss (only going 25 mph) I'm thinking about placing harassment charges if thats possible. And it's my car but my friend drove it because i had drank that night, and he bought the bag for all of us to smoke so technically i didnt purchase anything. I'm guessing the best thing is a lawyer but i'm not making enough money for that kidn of thing, how much does a decent lawyer usually cost?
