The false positive in this case was on a field test kit.   And these kits are apparently well-known for reacting with a host of ordinary chemicals that aren't cocaine.

That is the real question.

I wish judges were more educated on the subject.

The funny part is that Arfcom GD would consider those judges to be "liberals."

Thanks for the info.  That department shouldn't buy junk, then.  Doing so undermines the credibility they have with the prosecutors, courts, and the community.

Do you think it's more likely that they don't know, or that they know and don't care?

Remember the SCOTUS ruling on DUI checkpoints, they essentially admitted they're unconstitutional but ultimately approved them anyway because "safety".

I'm not going to defend or condemn the use of dogs.  My concern is the false positive test.  Was this addressed?  My experience is that nothing will cause a false positive for cocaine.  And why did they get a case filed without a positive lab test?

A case for possession based on the drywall dust wasn't filed AFAIK - he was held for being on probation for a prior drug conviction. It took 90 days for the legit lab test to be conducted and when the lab test came back negative he was released since he hadn't actually violated the terms of his probation.

This person is on to something.

The argument that an arrest is not a conviction is based on the idea that absent a conviction, there is no punishment. That is obviously false on the face of it, and everyone needs to quit pretending otherwise. An arrest, even a false one that leads to charges being dropped or dismissed, is still hugely destructive.

At a minimum, when these things occur, the state should be liable for all legal fees and lost wages. There should also be a requirement that the state make a public statement admitting wrongdoing.

I'm less onboard with personal consequences for the arresting officers unless it is obviously egregious or the officer has a history of causing problems like this. I don't want cops afraid to do their jobs. At the end of the day, the taxpayers are responsible for the actions of their employees, so I don't have an issue with reparations for lost wages and lost reputation coming out of the public treasury.

i would be suing the shit out of that dept. . makes you wonder if dogs are actually misused regularly.
I don't think suing should be necessary.  I think each level of "legal", wrongful kidnapping should at the minimum carry a financial penalty, and reparations.

Something like this...

1.  $10,000 for the arrest itself plus any damage to property or loss of wages.
2.  $10,000 for the initial booking at the jail, and then 3x the person's hourly earnings (or minimum wage if unemployed), for each hour spent in jail.

All paid upon exoneration.

Then the municipality must undergo the expense to clear the person's name, articles and press releases, whatever it takes.  Because like it or not, admit it or not, everyone pretty much makes assumptions about you if you're arrested.  It matters not whether you're innocent or what you're being arrested for, we all make conscious and subconscious assumptions about the arrestee.  

I think the state should be held accountable for unjustified or mistaken disruptions to a person's life, and it should be enough to make them a little more reluctant to pull the trigger willy-nilly, or abuse their "legal" authority.  It should also more than make the arrestee whole, and compensate him/her for the trauma and disruption to their life.  

I also think the arresting officer, and any other government official involved should be thoroughly investigated, and at the very least reprimanded and retrained.

If law enforcement has risen to the status of a "profession", then as professionals they should be held to a higher standard.

Lawyers, CPA's, financial advisors, and other "professions" carry types of malpractice, or errors or omission insurance and bonds.  They are also held accountable for their actions by different regulatory bodies.  

While I understand your concerns, I kind of want officers very confident that the arrests they make are appropriate.  If they're "reluctant" to make an arrest, maybe they shouldn't.

“I recognized, through my 11 years of training and experience as a law enforcement officer, the substance to be some sort of narcotic,” Riggs-Hopkins wrote in the report. The officer retrieved several pieces of the white substance from the floorboard, ran a test and “received a positive indication for the presence of amphetamines.” Twice.

It is FACT that dogs are missused 100% of the time and most times there is a "hit" is because the handler wants PC to search and signals it. There have been NUMEROUS independent tests that shows that dogs are wrong something like 60%+ of the time.

This is not the issue at hand. We are not indicting you for your behavior. The issue at hand is "90 days in jail for possession of drywall". Your stated conduct, having found yourself in somewhat similar circumstances, is not being faulted. You should consider, however, how apparent it was for all of us that you automatically fell into the defensive line with your brothers - even knowing how far in the wrong they were. The later equivocations, obfuscations and straw man arguments are not an expungement. When you see a man doing wrong - fight against that evil at the earliest moment - even if the man be your brother. Justice delayed is justice denied.

That's the problem. The blue line is ridiculous. You can ALWAYS count on guys like JIA and a few others to fall-in line on that, no matter how egregious the offense by an officer. Very few of us would have a problem if an officer acted within in the law and Constitution in effecting a legitimate arrest, where the law was clearly being broken. So why do some badges always choose to die on the hill of a bad arrest, which leads to an unfair incarceration? I supposed it's because they don't think it was a bad arrest. Which is all the more frightening... that a guy ASSUMES a civilian MUST be guilty because he has a prior arrest. Three months in jail for having drywall until the "perp" has been proven innocent? That's INSANE and it's scary as hell that the resident JBTs are so quick to defend stupid shit like that. But you'll never convince the supercops that their fellow supercops were in the wrong. Because "muh brothers in blue" and all that. Asinine! Frankly, it's pretty clear that the JBTs have NO ability to empathize and put themselves in a situation where something goes wrong and another LEO is having a bad day and wrecks their day, or that of a family member. True karma would dictate that it will happen to them eventually... and I sincerely hope it does!

He was put in handcuffs when court records showed he was out past his court-ordered curfew. Hours later, police realized the system was not up to date and Cashe had not violated his curfew.
That accounts for about about 0.1% of the time he was in custody.

Issues/problems with the dog, with the field test and with the lab taking 3 months.  The drug/drywell stuff should have never happened and that's a failure on the LE Dept/Officer/K9/K9 training as well as the field test kit provider.  A 3 month backlog in a lab isn't exactly a street level police work issue.

Feel free to explain how the Probation (or Parole) system should work when a person is suspected of violating their Probation terms.  Should the person be able to remain on the street until the newly suspected crimes/violations are found guilty BRD in court?  If so, WTF purpose does Probation serve?

Probation terms can include abstaining from alcohol - a perfectly legal activity (for those over 21 y/o) - yet the simple possession of a bottle of beer could put someone back in jail.

lol at the guys saying don't break the law and you wont get pulled over.My truck has DRL,and there's been a few times at night I've forgotten to turn the headlights on.

And another lol at the cops believing anything you tell them-court paperwork says 10,but the computer says 8,so lets fuck him up.

Cops were dicks,imo.

No argument here.

Issues/problems with the dog, with the field test and with the lab taking 3 months.  The drug/drywell stuff should have never happened and that's a failure on the LE Dept/Officer/K9/K9 training as well as the field test kit provider.  A 3 month backlog in a lab isn't exactly a street level police work issue.

Feel free to explain how the Probation (or Parole) system should work when a person is suspected of violating their Probation terms.  Should the person be able to remain on the street until the newly suspected crimes/violations are found guilty BRD in court?  If so, WTF purpose does Probation serve?

Probation terms can include abstaining from alcohol - a perfectly legal activity (for those over 21 y/o) - yet the simple possession of a bottle of beer could put someone back in jail.

I did go back and re-read.  You said there were "issues" and "problems" but then state that he wasn't in jail because of that but because of violating the terms of his probation which he of course did not.  

You still are pretty far from stating that this was unacceptable police work.

With just one word, was the police work acceptable or unacceptable?

It's always better to err to the side of fucking peoples lives up-as long as our brave heroes go home safe........



A University of Virginia student, alleging assault and malicious prosecution, filed a $40 million lawsuit against the state over being arrested and jailed after buying a case of sparkling water.

If law enforcement has risen to the status of a "profession", then as professionals they should be held to a higher standard.

Lawyers, CPA's, financial advisors, and other "professions" carry types of malpractice, or errors or omission insurance and bonds.  They are also held accountable for their actions by different regulatory bodies.  

While I understand your concerns, I kind of want officers very confident that the arrests they make are appropriate.  If they're "reluctant" to make an arrest, maybe they shouldn't.

The typical response from the LEO masses when people suggest such oversight is cops would quit, no one would ever want this job, etc... etc...

It's just an open admission they know the occupation is less than professional.

Yep all they had to do was make a notation of it and check it to verify when they get back to the station. If it turns out the computer was right all they had to do was call and report it to his probation officer the next day. Let them deal with it.

No, he's right.

There are a small few cops here who could see a video of a cop skull fucking a baby to death and would still defend the actions...

It is absurd the lengths a small few will go to try and justify the unjustifiable.

Did I miss where you did anything other than state it's acceptable that he was locked away for three months because police identified drywall as cocaine?
Technically,he was busted for violating curfew.Even though his paperwork said 10,the computer said 8.

Probably whoever entered it in the computer screwed up military time.
He was put in handcuffs when court records showed he was out past his court-ordered curfew. Hours later, police realized the system was not up to date and Cashe had not violated his curfew.
That accounts for about about 0.1% of the time he was in custody.

That's not unusual especially if he's serving it in a halfway house

Which part of the "police work"?  That's a rather broad brush.

A K9 alerting on drywall is unacceptable "police work".  

Patrol officers using a field test kit and believing the results isn't unacceptable "police work" on the front line officers part.

A testing lab determining the substance is not cocaine is acceptable "police work".  A testing lab taking 90 days to run the test isn't a front line officers issue.

I know it's not unusual - I completely missed it if it was mentioned in any of the links and I'm surprised no one pointed it out when I (and others?) responded with "terms of his probation" or something similar.
