all right so the kid who got the 20k taken is my best friends since we were kids...so i can fill in some of the blanks to the story here
He had been pulling into a parking lot of a wal-mart around 11pm, the wal-mart was closed and he was pulling in so he could call somebody and get directions. As he was pulling in a state trooper came outta nowhere and pulled him over, immediately running up to the car and demanding he be told what my boy was doing there, etc. So my boy calmly explained that he was a bit lost and was just pulling in to call his friend for directions, and the trooper said he wasnt buying his story, and wanted to search the car. Of course my friend told him "sorry officer I don't submit myself to illegal searches" The cop says he was suspicious because of a few hundred dollars my boy had sitting on the passenger seat (only like $400...)
the cop then calls for backup, and tells my buddy that they're allowed to circle his car with a K9, and if the dog has any hits then they can search the vehicle. So the K9 does a loop around the car...finds nothing but then they have the dog jump up into the open window where my boy had been talking to the cop (isnt this an illegal procedure already??) and the dog starts barking and scratching at a bag on the seat. So my boy tells the trooper that they can take that bag out and search it...only like $200 in the bag, no drugs. So the cop then brings the dog through the inside of the car (cop said they were allowed to do so once the dog hit on anything inside the car) and hits on the passenger seat pocket in the back, and they find a scale. After the scale was found the dog didnt have any more hits inside the car and was brought back to the K9 cruiser.
NOW the search should have been over considering no drugs were found and the dog wasn't hitting on anything else in the car. But it seems the pigs werent satisfied and angry that they couldnt find any kilos or whatever so they decide to keep searching anyway. My boy said once the pigs realized that the dog wasnt hitting on anything that the 2 cops walking away from my boy and were whispering to each other and he said it looked like they were conspiring to do something. So then one cop walks towards my boy and starts talking to him in such a way that made my boy turn his back to his vehicle for a minute. The cops had left his back passenger door open when they took the dog out and when my boy was distracted talking to one cop, the other cop walked up to his car and reached under the seat...taking the 20k or whatever out. Now keep in mind that the loot was wrapped up inside two grocery bags, no way to see through them, and the pig claimed he could see the money through the bags. BULLSHIT.
So my boy demands that they count all the money in the bag before they seize it so that they dont try and pocket some of it themselves. They count the money from the bag, and the pigs tell my boy that they're seizing his cash and his car. So at this point my boy tells them that theres another couple grand in the center console that he wants to count with them before they take his car, that way they can't just act like there wasnt any more cash in the whip. So when he asks them to grab the other money and count it they tell him "no, neither you or us can enter the vehicle until we have a warrant" which is bullshit because they already searched the vehicle and grabbed the other loot with no warrant.
Either way my boy is in a rough spot, hes talking to a few lawyers and trying to figure his shit out. Hes a strong person so i know he'll pull through but god damn it pisses me off how we break the law...and we get fucked and have to pay thousands in lawyer fees just to protect our rights. But cops violate our rights and break the law everyday and get away with it!
