more law enforcement follies for you kids to be entertained by, though those on the end of situations like the story below can't seem to join in your fun;

Police incompetence coupled with the war on drugs is a dangerous mixture that all too often takes the lives of entirely innocent people and hurls them into turmoil and destruction. Not only does the war on drugs lay waste to the rights and lives of countless innocent people caught with substances deemed illegal by the state but many people who never possess these substances fall victim to drug warrior cops so hell bent on ruining lives that they will claim that powdered milk is cocaine.

After being held in jail for weeks, Cody Gregg, 26, pleaded guilty to trafficking drugs on Oct. 8 and was sentenced to 15 years in prison last week. The only thing is Gregg never trafficked cocaine and was instead in possession of powdered milk. He was forced to take the guilty plea just to get out of jail. Days later, after a lab tested the powdered milk, they confirmed it was not cocaine and the conviction was dismissed—only after Gregg’s life was thrown into utter chaos, however.

The nightmare began for Gregg when he was targeted by police for extortion in August for an alleged “traffic violation” while riding his bicycle. When police caught up to him, they discovered a bag of a white powdery substance. When the cops used their notoriously faulty field test kits, the powdered milk tested positive as cocaine.

As TFTP has reported on numerous occasions, tens of thousands have been convicted and served time for crimes they didn’t commit because the cases against them relied on horribly unreliable field drug test kits.

So prone to errors are the tests, courts won’t allow their submission as evidence. However, they are continued to be used by law enforcement, needlessly ruining thousands of lives. Gregg’s nightmare is evidence of this horrifically flawed system.

Police claimed Gregg was in possession of 45.91 grams of cocaine so he was charged with trafficking for having such a large amount. He was booked at the Oklahoma County Jail on Aug. 22 and held on $50,000 bond, court records show.........https://thefreethoughtproject.com/guilty-cocaine-powdered-milk/
