What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?
This occured in Texas, in a very small town.
I was pulled over for not having my headlights on (at 7oclock)(with the sun still shining and my sunglasses still on).....
the officer (a K9 unit officer that was patrolling without his dog in the car) asked for my id, i gave him the id.
first....he just asked what i would say if asked if he could search my vehicle....
i said that there was no reason for him to search the vehicle, and explained i would not consent to a search.... he then claimed that since he was a drug dog carrier, he could run the dog by the car and if the dog ''hit'' or ''alerted'' to my vehicle, he would then perform a search.... i expressed that i felt this was wrong and under no circumstances could he search my vehicle ( i felt very much like i was being profiled and that my rights were being violated)....
the officer called for backup, then left the scene to retrieve his drug dog. the dog supposedely alerted to my vehicle. the police then started seearching the vehicle all together (3 of them at this point).... after finding a cigarrette butt from a bugler (cowboy, roll your own cig) they cuffed me and put me in the back of the car, explaining they had found marijuana. (after i begged them to make sure it was marijuana and not just a cigarrette butt they realized it was just tobacco).
the search continues....
they found a piece of notebook paper that contained a powdered substance that they claimed tested positive for LSD. it was not LSD.
i bailed out on a $10,000 bond, under the charge of possession of a controlled substance , penalty group 1a , less than a gram...which is specifically LSD. the substance as i stated above, was not LSD.
after thorough tests are done on the substance, and it is shown to not be LSD, can i beat this case??? i havent been indicted yet, just arrested and bailed out.
the police told me the powder tested positive for LSD, and i am POSITIVE it is not.
