Oh, okay.

Rick you are 100% right and everyone else is wrong!

Now...don't Bogart that joint....

Richard, did they have a search warrant? If they DID have a warrant, you're basically screwed unless you can prove that the information on the affidavit for the warrant was knowingly and intentionally false.

Sorry SJ, haven't had a chance to read the other thread yet. From the OP in this thread, it appears the police had a clue and stopped your vehicle for whatever violation they could justify seeking to find evidence for probable cause for a home search. But I have no sympathy for dealers and hope the sentence leans much more to life. Especially as there is apparently no remorse.

You are not going to get 99 years
The second case may go federal because of the meth and gun combo. I would say their is a possibility of that here. They may slap together a conspiracy case against you if they can find witnesses. Sometimes they do that so that the search warrant doesn’t become an obstacle when prosecuting You will be looking at 5-7 years and you will serve 85% of your time. For sake of simplicity the original case may just be used as part of the bargaining process.

First of all there was no evidence found for a probable cause,so how can they get a legal search warrant.Second of all what if there was a murder on the other side of town and you get pulled over,arrested, and charged with murder because you fit the descreption,your telling me you would smile,show remorse, and say good job officers.Kind of the same damn diffrence isn't it _i_khead!!!Like the seniorjudge said your always right,bad news for you d_c_head nobodys perfect and especially means you.About the life thing,that means you got no heart or remorse i guess cause you have never done anything wrong in your life.Remember this flake you can fool any and everybody except yourself.Also be looking for your new bestfriend,my friend-good old KARMA.Thank you and have yourself a good day.

Yep,....NO remorse from the criminal. Maybe he will get some when he has to deal with Bubba.

Okay, so they HAD a search warrant.

What is your attorney's argument to show that the warrant was issued based upon false testimony or with insufficient cause? Note that quashing a warrant is no easy task. And since the warrant (and the snitch) appeared to be spot on about your drug dealing (as evidenced by the seizure), it's gonna be kinda hard to argue they erred.

If they had indicia of possible transportation (the door panels), two prior drug beefs, and a snitch to testify as to your supplying the neighborhood, that could well be sufficient for a warrant.

My problem is I have never heard of someone getting pulled over,not having anything illegal on them and still going to search someones house.I'm not an outlaw,never been a smarta$$,or ran from them.

Well, apparently you are a dope dealer.

Asifde from that, DID they have a warrant? Or did they NOT have a warrant?

The answer to that question will determine how much of a shot you have in getting the evidence tossed.

sorry to bother you judge but i see all your posts so i figure you know what your doing.Dont all of there reasons for doing this seem like a little too much,sort of covering every angle possible and then some.I ask because one lawyer i talked to said there are only three ways they can get a search warrant-(1)somebody informs them of illegal activity (2) there is visible evedience at the residence of burglary,assault,etc (3)apperance of not maintaining human sanitation,i think such as people living in there own extreme unsanatized waste,etc.. The lawyer followed this by saying"they can have one and only one of these reasons for getting a search warrant." if you dont mind i would really appreciate your input on this.Sorry to waste your time,thank you and have a good one.

I dont think so becuase one of us wont be here anymore,and ya'll talk about remorse,i've been accused of something while driving down the damn street with no visible evidence on or around me,this is my point anyway put yourselfs in my position and you would be saying the same damn thing!
