Court OKs Police Theft and Lies in Drug Search

Bill of Rights - Void where prohibited by lawUn-f*cking believeable! If this wasn't an illegal search, what is? The immediate parallel that comes to mind is "War is Peace, Freedom is Slavery, Ignorance is Strength" ... and I'll let you remember for yourself what dystopian novel that quote comes from.

Cops who faked a fender bender, a car theft and then a police chase in order to search a car for drugs did not violate the Constitution, an appeals court rules.

Notes: If you put a <mailto:> link in the URL field your address will not be mangled: this could be a bad idea as your email address could be easily harvested by bots designed for SPAM. The comments field should now format correctly for line feeds and carriage returns: when you hit the 'Enter' or 'Return' keys in your comment it should break to a new line. The text should wrap cleanly. Please let me know if it doesn't. No HTML tags will pass through - entering links seems to be the main cause of comment SPAM. Also, please be sure that Javascript is enabled in your browser before attempting to post a writeback. Sorry for any inconvenience, but this really helps cut down on the amount of comment SPAM I have to deal with.
