intent to distribute..how do the cops

[fredcdobbs]

I'd agree with everything except the rent where you grow. If you own make sure you don't have more than 10% equity which is not a problem these days. They will not bother to take a home that they can't turn around and sell.
Outside of Lazyman's advice be respectful and do not cop an attitude. I had a friend who was busted outdoors and they went through his home that was well kept with pictures of family, grandchildren and a beautiful letter from his deceased wife (cancer) that showed the police he was not deserving of the laws they were paid to enforce. He had a medical condition pot was legitimate for and no scales, baggies etc. They treated him with as much respect as he treated them and it paid off. I've always made a point to talk to police when I see them at convenience stores or anywhere in public just to get comfortable with them. I had a neighbor who was a cop and he said it all depended on how the the person treated them as to how far they pushed the issue. Most cops like most americans have smoked pot at some point in there lives and know it is not what it is made out to be but they have to make arrests. They never know if who they pull over is one of there own making sure they are doing there job. My neighbor said coming out of the academy they would use new cadets none of the other cops knew to see if they would take large sums of cash when pulled over. Just something to think about.

i disagree with you..in my experience with cops,they are out for themselves and could care less about the right thing or "justice"..your case might be the exception but it aint the rule..

INCORRECT...
They take it, appraise it, auction it or let it be foreclosed and LEAVE you with the NEGATIVE DEBT...

THANKS

i hear about all these maintaining a dwelling/vehicle for transportation charges but havent heard about anyone around me ever getting hit with those here in the bay area...*knocks on wood...

fucking god damn games we play..fuck cops and asset forfeiture almost makes you wanna just go out in a blaze of glory..burn the house and car so they cant get money from it then hide out in the hills and go guerrilla...

my bro-in-law/growing mentor got popped one time and one time only, and it was leaving a really small op (<5kw house)...they claimed it was for bad registration at first, then when he countered that everything on his car was up to date, they came right out and said that they had followed him from the house and had a warrant to search his car, etc. All he had was 2 jars with about a quarter (ounce that is...cops were really disappointed with that ) in each, and the only reason they were separated was because they were different strains but very similar looking...he got hit with intent and maintaining a vehicle plus a couple of misdemeanors. Literally the only example I have ever personally seen of M.V. charge IRL.

Usually will charge you with this by default if you have a felony amount instead of a misdemeanor amount in a non-medical state. Usually anything more than a micro-grow and you can plan on at least being charged with it to begin with. Now what they let you plead it down to is another story.

Sell to an undercover, obviously anything you have from there out is intent to distribute.

Best options you have are no tell, no smell, no sell.
