Hooooooleeeeeeee fuck that is a comically blatant frame job

But also: corroborating articles? I’m not finding anything from AP or similar that back this up. How fresh is this?

Uh oh. It would be wild if it was inadmissible. Their whole job is to collect USABLE evidence.

Now is a good time to remind people to never ever agree to a police search. They're gonna phrase things weird and take advantage of your good nature. Never agree to any sort of search.

Hell, even if they have a warrant I'm tempted to explicitly say I don't consent. I'm not going to resist but I'm gonna make it clear I'm not consenting. Because how the hell do I even verify a warrant is real? I have no idea, and I certainly wouldn't be able to find out if they're at my door.

Be aware though, in Georgia there is "implied consent" with regards to roadside breathalyzer tests. If you get in that situation, remember I'm just a random lemming and not a lawyer. Other states might have similar things.

Ask them to show you and take a pic of it for your records.

Pro tip: set a shortcut to your camera on your lock screen so you don't have to unlock your phone.

On most Android phones there's a physical shortcut for the camera like pressing the lock button twice.

"If you get in that situation, remember I'm just a random lemming and not a lawyer."

Indeed! And along those lines, ask for a lawyer if you're arrested. Especially if you're innocent. People who think "I'll look guilty if I ask for a lawyer" just make themselves vulnerable to words being twisted against them.

You know it's a sham the question is, what are you gonna do? you're the people with access to guns... me here in Europe I gotta fight with literal sticks and stones

[–] [email protected] 13 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

I think you're confused, I live in Europe and I have way more guns that the average American.

On top or that, compared to an average American, you earned the right to own them by passing several tests and know how to safely manipulate them.

...but MUH FREEDOM 🇱🇷

I've been saying all along everything happened too quick for him to be the actual guy. It was pretty clear to me they were desperate to make an example of someone quickly and not accurately.

[–] [email protected] 25 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

Both things can be true, no? He may actually be the guy, but they acquired evidence illegally and still planted it to subvert due process (again).

They need to play 12 Angry Men for every jury before deliberation, but play it twice for this particular jury. That's not the kind of evidence you send a kid to the chair over.
