The cops allegedly seized pot, cocaine and pills, per the news. The authorities executed a search warrant, suggesting they had the pair under surveillance for some time. This is because the Fourth Amendment1 requires police to file sworn affidavits with the court to establish probable cause before a judge will issue a warrant. Of course, the investigation provides the basis for the affidavits. Additionally, before entering the store, surveillance officers claim they saw the father remove a black bag from a nearby parked car and place it behind the store’s counter. Authorities claim this bag held cocaine and marijuana. Furthermore, the police also claim to have found an opioid pain medication while executing the warrant. Among other crimes, the cops filed charges for cocaine possession with intent to distribute. Read more

Mandatory Drug Court

Additionally, this made drug court mandatory for non-violent drug offenders. Furthermore, drug court costs less than imprisonment. Indeed, the state spends $42,000 annually per prison inmate.
