My son purchased a vehicle and for ‘reasons’ we’re thinking it might be a good idea to have it searched for drugs. Is there a good way to go about having this done?

Don't invite the man into your life whatever you do. Just take the interior panels all out. If you don't find anything there's probably nothing. If it was taken from a drug runner they would have already found the drugs. I'm assuming this was a police auction car?

I got called to a house one day where the owner was doing some sort of aftermarket install and pulled about 10 kilo of compressed weed from the frame of a Cherokee. It was bought from a Marshal's auction.

Every cop show I see on TV, when they find drugs in the car the owner of the car never knew it was there.
Just assume there are drugs in the car. |

Had problems moving the shifter and when I pulled the cover on the B&M shifter it was FULL of smoked to the nub roaches. |

I know someone that bought one like that. Had a strong smell, lots of miles in just a couple years and some scratches on the trunk from cargo. Looks like the backseat had never been used. Had three business cards of roadside mechanic/tire service places. Did laps from AZ,CA, NY AND FL with maintenance done on time. Also saw a guy get a free crack pipe with his police auction SC300.

Get yourself a buddy who's a K9 handler for a fed agency.
He'd be happy to help and use it as training for his dog. At least that's what I'm doing on my vehicle before I go to Canada at the end of the month. |

I had a car stolen from my condo. A few days after I reported it stolen the cops called and told me they had the vehicle impounded.
I talked to the detective in charge of the case and he said that the tags got ran and there was a short chase and the perp had ditched the vehicle and ran. Next day I go to get the car from impound and it was full of obvious stolen property, the perps cell phone, crack, crack pipe, some weed and a large bag of coke. I called the detective and asked if he was interested in all these items and he blew me off and just told me to throw it all away if I dint want it 🤷🏽♂️ |

About 10 years ago I was looking for a 2002-3-4 Crown Vic Police Interceptor. MO.Trooper car. Seen a beautiful MO. blue that looked like it was an unmarked or State Official car, had the look. Stopped into the dealer and asked about it. Oh what a story this guy weaves. First he was a Deputy for the local SD, OK. Then the electronic speedo doesn't work, OK, on and on.
So I begin to ask about the car to see if his bullshit is that bullshit. I ask about the rear seat area and see it is the nice cloth bench seat. But all the signs of having had police restraining equipment, front rear divider, maybe had the perp seat but looks original. I ask if they have removed the seat to check for contraband. What do you mean he says. I said I would never by a police car without it being checked for dope, bombs, grenade launchers. I said if you were a Deputy and never seen detainees hiding shit you weren't a Deputy long. I told him that I will come back tomorrow with cash but you have the seat out and a mileage statement for your inspected car without working dashboard or the price comes down. Next day I get ready to stop in to look over car again before I buy it. And there was a cop convention going on, and the focus looks to be the Crown Vic with doors open, on other cars also. So I pass by and they are closed and the car is gone the next day. I find out the following days that the "Deputy" had a few stolen cars on the lot and the CV was one of them. Yikes That sure was a nice car and one of the best years. |

I was gonna say, there's a local church and it seems like a few times a month, they have a bunch of K-9 cops from different agencies roll up. I never knew if it was some play date for the doggos or training or what. But it seems like a safe bet would be to approach a group like that, let them know the situation, and see if they want to run their dogs through the car. If a flock of dogs doesn't find anything, then it doesnt matter if there's drugs in the car. A dog at a traffic stop wouldn't find it.

The found some bricks of cocaine. Called the agency that seized the car, they came out and collected the stuff. Years ago a colleague told me a story where they working on an airliner (US owned and registered, by a so-called flag carrier), they removed a interior panel to do an inspection, and found it crammed with bundles of US currency, likely a 7 figure amount. He said him and his buddy freaked out for a minute or two, did the inspection, and packed it all back in there. Guess they didn't want a creepy guy with a weird haircut showing up... |

When we bought a used car for our daughter it had that recently cleaned smell. As it wore off we began to smell the weed. If the car sat for more than a day with the windows closed then the smell would hit you as soon as you opened the door, didn't even have to get in to smell it.
In the end we found less than a joint scattered throughout the car. |
