Comments on: Super-nosed Cops http://brownandlittlelaw.com/2008/07/14/super-nosed-cops/ Arizona Criminal Defense Attorneys Wed, 16 May 2012 20:47:29 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.2 By: Samuel A Malat http://brownandlittlelaw.com/2008/07/14/super-nosed-cops/#comment-59 Samuel A Malat Wed, 17 Nov 2010 18:47:10 +0000 http://brownandlittlelaw.com/blog1/2008/07/14/super-nosed-cops/#comment-59 http://www.dailybusinessreview.com/PubArticleDBR.jsp?id=1202474796981&rss=dbr is an article on unburnt pot smell in NEW York that resulted in dismissal. Then again, New York takes the illegal immigrants that Arizona is trying to get rid of. Anyway, I lost a case, but won a standing ovation, from a municipal court case where a police officer claimed that he saw a joint butt in an ash tray when the ash tray was in a monster truck that took a ladder to climb into. If I was not personal friends with personal friends of the judge, I was told that I would have been held in contempt for putting a chair on top of the defense table to demonstrate the height of the truck since the judge was too lazy to walk outside to see the truck. (Actually, I could almost walk under the thing) Welcome to the world of criminal defense, it is only TV shows and movies where motions to strike clearly defective evidence is suppressed. My favorite saying at parties is that there is more science fact in an episode of Stat Trek than there is in a season of CSI. There is certainly more correct legal reasoning there too. Sad, but true. The worst is that there are so many innocent people convicted, subscribe to theinnonceproject and what is left of your hair will be pulled by your own fingers before it hits the floor. http://www.dailybusinessreview.com/PubArticleDBR.jsp?id=1202474796981&rss=dbr is an article on unburnt pot smell in NEW York that resulted in dismissal.

I am sure there is some scientific data some were. It is sad to see a judge even began to believe this crap. It is also sad that our justice system would allow a search based on smell in such a small amount. I bet that judge could not have smelled it or is he smoking it? We should just all become Fascist so we don't die from stress having to deal with this crap.
