Smell of marijuana isn't enough to conduct a search in CO.

Know your rights when dealing with da blue.

Drug-sniffing police dogs in Colorado may need new training if they can detect marijuana, after a ruling last week by the Colorado Court of Appeals that sets a new precedent for drug cases.

A three-judge panel agreed that if a drug-sniffing dog is trained to alert officers to marijuana and other drugs, cops need more cause to search a vehicle without permission.

Should 100% not be allowed as probable cause to enter/search a vehicle.

The win/loss record with cops when you get co for rational during the stop is 0 wins and all loses. Right or wrong, roadside isn’t the place for that battle.

Hell, a good friend of mine got pulled over just into OK from TX for “passing too closely”. The troopers were hunting for weed. Friend had $20k in his truck, cops made a stink about it. My buddy asked if either of them had a $20 on them. One said yes, my buddy said when you compare net worth, that $20k is relatively less of my net worth than the $20 is yours.

Apparently that didn’t go over well.
