Folks, absolutist attitudes are usually counterproductive. Let's take a specific scenario where you WANT to let the cop search. I'm no lawyer, but I've talked to many lawyers and the scenario I'm about to give you is legally valid.

Say you've got a baggy of weed in your pocket and you've been smoking off and on during the day, but your car is clean and you're sure of it. Now, a cop stops you and asks you to step out of the car.

The cop can legally do a pat down to make sure you don't have a weapon. This is looking for a gun or a knife and is not a thorough search of your body. You usually won't be asked to turn out your pockets. A baggy in the pocket (or better yet, your crotch) will not draw attention any more than a wallet or a small wad of bills.

Next the suspicious cop asks to search your car. Remember that you're certain your car is clean at this point. The goods are on you.

What happens if you refuse? Well, the almost-guaranteed response is intense suspicion. Unless the sky is falling, the cop will call for a dog and detain you as long as it takes for it to get there.

A dog's nose is a zillion times more sensitive than a human's. The instant the dog arrives he will indicate on the door handle which you've been touching after handling weed. Now you're fucked, because once the dog indicates, both your body and your car will be THOROUGHLY searched and they will find the goods on you.

If instead of refusing the search, you politely let the cop search your car, knowing that the weed is in your pocket, he will find nothing and likely let you go.

If you're carrying, it's CRITICAL that the cop not become suspicious enough to call for a dog. That call ends the game for you.

Swallow your pride when it makes sense to and take the path of least resistance. Do everything possible to avoid the dog. Like Seuss said, once the cops arrive, your goal is minimizing the damage. You do that by cooperating with the cop as politely and as much as possible without revealing the stash, and by manipulating the situation so the cop doesn't feel the need to call for a dog. And most of all, keep your mouth shut except to answer questions. Don't over-answer. Give just enough answer to satisfy the cop, then shut up. The more you talk, the more likely you'll say something to draw suspicion.

Be smart, not stubborn!

> What happens if you refuse? Well, the almost-guaranteed response is intense suspicion.

Not really. If you act suspicious they will become suspicious. Refusing a search is not suspicious in and of itself and is not cause for "articulable suspicion".

> Unless the sky is falling, the cop will call for a dog and detain you as long as it takes for it to get there.

Often not. They will often just send you on your way knowing there is nothing they can do. If they make you wait for a dog they've just punished you for asserting your rights and their case is shot.

There's ways around that, like taking overly long to write you a ticket. If there is no ticketable offense and/or they aren't going to write you one then they absolutely have no justification to hold you for any length of time. You should find this out right off the bat rather than engaging the cops verbally and/or playing into their game.

> If you're carrying, it's CRITICAL that the cop not become suspicious enough to call for a dog. That call ends the game for you.

Or it makes your case and you get off scott free on the 10 pounds of heroin in your trunk. It's happened before, people can and are let off on major drug charges because they smartly refused to let the police search and were unduly delayed for it.

Time and time again we read in the news section where people with large amounts of drugs consent to searches and are then busted. The other major causes are major violations that result in arrest or impounding of the car. Rarely do you ever see a case where someone refused to consent to a search and ended up being busted by the dog that came.


While I generally agree with the specific circumstance you mentioned it can easily play out different ways. When you consent to a search that takes time and occupies the officer, so they often call for backup. Lots of times other cops hear the stop on their radio and stop by to check it out. They always radio when they're going to do a search and cops also like to stop by to see if anything is found. If that backup happens to have a K9 unit then you're fucked. OTOH if you had refused you might well have already been on your way. If you do get busted after a refusal you have a reasonable chance in court. If you consented then you have no chance whatsoever since you waived your rights.

Some cops like to put you in their car when they search and they almost always will search you before doing that. That's another chance to get busted that you could have avoided.

It's all to easy to second guess yourself and things can play out either way no matter what you do, but I always advise to refuse searches unless it is clearly a benefit to you.

But what's the point of refusing a search when you KNOW there's nothing in the car? What does it gain you other than increasing the risk that the cop will make things personal?

If you KNOW your car is clean and the cop wants to search, let him. It's the fastest way to pacify the bully and get him off your back.

You don't want a pissed off cop to deal with, whether you're breaking the law or not. Your pride is not worth risking going to jail for.

It's happened before, people can and are let off on major drug charges because they smartly refused to let the police search and were unduly delayed for it.

You're not reading me. I'm talking about the case where there is nothing to find in the car. If you have 10# of heroin in the trunk, then of course you refuse the search and take your chances. If you have nothing in the car, the fastest way to get the guy off your back is to let him search and find nothing.

Not really. If you act suspicious they will become suspicious.

Not according to Barry Cooper. According to him, cops tick off in their head something called "probable suspicion". Each time he notices something, he ticks off one more count. The more cause for "probable suspicion" you give him, the longer he will detain you and the more likely he will call for a dog.

Refusing a search immediately ticks off your first point of "probable suspicion". If you're nervous, there's another one. If your story and your passenger's story don't jive, there's another one.

By refusing a search when you are certain there is nothing to find in the car, you only increase the chances a dog will be called who will not miss the weed in your pocket even though the cop missed it during the pat down.

Some cops like to put you in their car when they search and they almost always will search you before doing that.

Again, not according to the horse's mouth. Cooper knows what he's talking about. He's not making this up. According to him, at this point in the game, all the cop is allowed to do is a quick pat down to make sure you don't have an obvious weapon. If your weed is stashed in your crotch inside your underwear, it won't be found (unless the dog comes).

Don't take my word for any of this. Watch his video. Better yet, talk to a criminal defense lawyer. What do I know.

FF summed that up well, but I thought I would add that a police officer can not detain or arrest without probable cause.

This is not true. You guys are just making stuff up.

Probable suspicion (also known as Reasonable Suspicion) is enough for a cop to detain you, and refusing a search IS probable suspicion. Multiple probable suspicions is enough for a cop to detain you for a long time, long enough for probable cause to form if you slip up or if a dog indicates on your body or your property/car. At that point, they have probable cause and can and will legally search.

The Supreme Court affirmed this in 1968 in Terry v. Ohio.

Learn the law so you don't give probable suspicion. Don't make the mistake of thinking you know what you're talking about then having your lawyer explain it to you in a jail cell.

There ARE instances where consenting to a search of your car is the best thing to do.

Perhaps you enjoy the freedoms assured you under the constitution. Perhaps you don't like being abused by the gov.. Perhaps you don't want to be delayed for 30-60 minutes for a search when you could be on your way instead. Perhaps you don't like strangers pawing through your personal belongings.

Quote:

If you cannot answer that question then perhaps you would not mind living in a police state where you are searched and questioned at every opportunity and every checkpoint along your route.

Quote:

I love nothing more than seeing a pissed off and impotent cop frustrated by the common man by simple assertion of his constitutional rights.

Quote:

Your pride is not worth risking going to jail for.




I believe that some would disagree with you here. You might examine the history of social protest, human rights protest, and workers rights protests for more insight into that.

Quote:

If you have nothing in the car, the fastest way to get the guy off your back is to let him search and find nothing.




This is a most common misconception IMO. IME consenting to a search is sure to delay you for a significant time, while refusing often ends up getting you right on your way.

Quote:

Not according to Barry Cooper. According to him, cops tick off in their head something called "probable suspicion".




I'm not familiar with that term. The case law I've seen deals with "articulable suspicion". I'm not sure that "probable suspicion" has any legal meaning whatsoever. It seems redundant and nonsensical. There is suspicion, articulable suspicion, and probable cause.

I've seen his video and one thing I would point out is that Barry Cooper was a narcotics agent. He is only pulling people over for drugs and always had drug dogs immediately at his disposal. When he pulls someone over he already has profiled them and has a high suspicion that they have drugs on them right off the bat.

This is a far cry from being pulled over on a common traffic stop by a standard patrol officer. If you follow Barry's advice you will likely never be pulled over by a narcotics interdiction officer. What most people have to worry about, if they're smart, is common traffic stops.

Barry's advice is that you follow his video and have your drugs well hidden. You arouse no suspicion in any way and have your drugs in an unfindable place. Your only goal is to avoid the dog.

Quote:

Refusing a search immediately ticks off your first point of "probable suspicion". If you're nervous, there's another one. If your story and your passenger's story don't jive, there's another one.




Again "probable suspicion" really makes no sense, it's simply "suspicion". To bear any weight legally it has to be "articulable suspicion". That means that you have to have a reason for your suspicion, "he looked nervous" doesn't cut it.

Your first point is simply assertion of your rights and any reference to it in court works against the prosecution. The second point is not "articulable" and carries no weight. The third point is valid and this is "articulable suspicion". It's not probable cause and is only good for holding you a short time and questioning you further.

Quote:

By refusing a search when you are certain there is nothing to find in the car, you only increase the chances a dog will be called who will not miss the weed in your pocket even though the cop missed it during the pat down.




As I discussed earlier this isn't always the case. Every situation is different and consenting to a search is certain to delay you for a period of time and increase the chance that a K9 will show up.

If you refuse it is a two-pronged approach and serves to either get you on your way or destroy any case against you.

Quote:

Probable suspicion (also known as Reasonable Suspicion) is enough for a cop to detain you, and refusing a search IS probable suspicion.




I've never head this and don't believe it to be true. Without probable cause cops may detain you for questioning. If you refuse to answer any questions (which is your right) then they have no reasonable cause to detain you. If you ask for a lawyer they also must stop questioning you, giving them no cause to further detain you.

In most cases if you assert your right to remain silent then they can only detain you for purposes of identification. Once they see your license and make the identification that reason no longer holds.

Quote:

There ARE instances where consenting to a search of your car is the best thing to do.




This is true, however they are few and far between. You give up a lot of rights when you consent, and you're basically shooting your lawyer in the foot when you do this.

reasonable suspicion? where did that come from, law and order or CSI miami?

Uh, the Supreme Court, Terry v. Ohio:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terry_v._Ohio

You're not reading what I've been so carefully typing. So after this post, I'll leave you to your expert knowledge since you (don't) know so much more about it than I do. :rolleyes:

You can not be detained

Uh... thanks for setting the Supreme Court straight on this. I'm sure they're grateful:

Reasonable suspicion is a legal standard in United States law that a person has been, is, or is about to be, engaged in criminal activity based on specific and articulable facts and inferences. It is the basis for an investigatory or Terry stop by the police and requires less evidence than probable cause, the legal requirement for arrests and warrants. Reasonable suspicion is evaluated using the "reasonable person" or "reasonable officer" standard, in which said person in the same circumstances could reasonably believe a person has been, is, or is about to be, engaged in criminal activity; such suspicion is not a mere hunch. Police may also, based solely on reasonable suspicion of a threat to safety, frisk a suspect for weapons, but not for contraband like drugs. A combination of particular facts, even if individually innocuous, can form the basis of reasonable suspicion.

Supreme Court ruled that a person can be stopped and frisked by a police officer based on a reasonable suspicion. Such a detention does not violate the Fourth Amendment prohibition on unreasonable searches and seizure.

you could wire it so that the record switch is next to the peddles, so the cop wont thing your fishing for something or trying to hide something

video would be a bit more difficult to keep discreet unless u get those micro cameras that are about the size of a quarter, you dont want it to be obvious or the piggie will get pissed off that youre taking hard evidence against him and "accidently" smash up ur equipment

diploid, I believe what was being said was that in the context of a traffic stop a terry stop has less meaning. Once they frisk you, and you refuse to answer questions, they can't detain you absent probable cause.

The terry standards set a threshold for when the cop may approach you and frisk you or your immediate surroundings absent probable cause, however; they do not give rise to a detention of more than several minutes if you identify yourself and refuse to answer questions.

course they could call a dog, and likely get away with it, but they really aren't supposed to be doing this if it would prolong the stop, however what is a reasonable time will vary and likely favor the cops.


the other issue is that once your pulled over for a traffic violation, most of which are criminal offenses (minor misdemeanors, petty offenses whatever) the cops can arrest you under the fed. const. At least one state (Ohio) has ruled that the state constitution prohibits this, but don't know about the other states.


but yeah, I would say never consent to a search. It may well be that the cop won't do as thorough a search if you consent than after a dog alerts, but who knows- as I've not had shit on me in a car in a long time, its more academic for me, and I simply don't consent out of protest for the coercion of my rights and the misuse of the gov't power to target drugs.

What you're missing is that considerable discretion is given the cop in those (terry stop) situations. A terry stop can happen to you without any reason other than the cop thinks you "look nervous". He can stop you walking on the sidewalk and ask you for ID for no reason at all other than you "look suspicious". Each of those, whether made up by the cop or actually observed tick off a point of Probable Suspicion.

Cops DO lie, and they DO take their job personally. And they're out hunting, it's what satisfies them psychologically. They're selected for that. Turn that to your advantage.

My whole point, and one that you guys are totally missing, is that there ARE occasions where the end result depends on how you behave toward the cop, and when your car is totally clean and you're certain of it but you have something illegal in your pocket, the FASTEST way to get away from him is to let him search the clean car.

During a terry stop, the cop is allowed to do a pat down for gross metal objects that could be weapons, but he is not allowed to do a thorough search of your person. If your car is clean but there's a quarter of weed in your pocket, you have to keep this from escalating (through the cop lying and saying something like he smelled weed on your breath) into a probable cause situation where HE WILL turn out all your pockets and find the weed.

What you want to do in that situation is to manipulate him toward the car and away from you and also away from calling a dog, which he will do if you piss him off and refuse the search, or he will lie and turn the terry stop into a probable cause situation. COPS DO LIE. Be aware of that so you don't give him a reason to lie and make things worse for you.

By letting him search the CLEAN car, it will satisfy the alpha-bully in him in that he will think he intimidated you into a search when in fact you manipulated HIM into the search so he'll get the stop over with and go bug someone else.

Don't believe me. Refuse a search for no reason other than your pride next time you're confronted. Report back here how it went down. I'd be interested to hear the result though some cop abuse is what I expect to read.

2) You can't have an abortion no matter how much you don't want a child.
3) You can't have a certain plant in your possession or you'll get locked up with a rapist and a murderer.

4) We need a smaller, less-intrusive government.

It's cool man. Just keep in mind that cops are liars. I've seen it first-hand. We live in a police state. :sad:

I have refused searches every time I'm asked for no other reason than my pride, dislike of the police and their intrusivness. Four times that I remember off the top of my head, and I'm a clean cut kid w/ no convictions, but in a college town.

Got a ticket twice for speeding, beat one of those in court and the other I paid, and got a warning for weaving the other two times. Out of those the dog alerted once, which was either a false hit or the cops lied.
