The OP is either incredibly stupid, or super incredibly smart. With a law degree, the OP could be one of the best lawyers out there!
If this all happened at a secondary stage of a checkpoint, then it's all bull. It's all still in view of normal traffic, and if anybody saw an officer throwing baggage from a truck out into the dirt, I'm certain I'd have heard about it by now. And, while an officer throwing that sort of conniption isn't impossible, I don't know of too many officers willing to risk their job over a "bust" that isn't even required in the first place.
Oh, my favorite part: the OP referenced a crying child, but suddenly the OP's son is posting the same question? Interesting.
Oh, and then there's....no, nevermind. I could go on and on, but nothing here is adding up.
Either this is homework, somebody having fun with us, or the OP is lying about important details.
