Undercover Cops Flirted With Students to Trick Them Into Selling Pot
[url]http://www.alternet.org/newsandviews/article/789519/sick%3A_young%2C_undercover_cops_flirted_with_students_to_trick_them_into_selling_pot/[/url]
[quote]Last year in three high schools in Florida, several undercover police officers posed as students. The undercover cops went to classes, became Facebook friends and flirted with the other students. One 18-year-old honor student named Justin fell in love with an attractive 25-year-old undercover cop after spending weeks sharing stories about their lives, texting and flirting with each other.
One day she asked Justin if he smoked pot. Even though he didn't smoke marijuana, the love-struck teen promised to help find some for her. Every couple of days she would text him asking if he had the marijuana. Finally, Justin was able to get it to her. She tried to give him $25 for the marijuana and he said he didn't want the money -- he got it for her as a present.
A short while later, the police did a big sweep and arrest 31 students -- including Justin. Almost all were charged with selling a small amount of marijuana to the undercover cops. Now Justin has a felony hanging over his head.[/quote]
Wow. First of all, I feel terrible for that Justin kid. And this is really stupid.
-blam!- tha police comin straight from the undergroud.

That's just shameful... Track down the real drug dealers, not the kids caught up in it...

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] AgentCOPP1 [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] FloodPsychologis I'm pretty sure that's illegal. Baiting someone to commit a crime is illegal if I remember correctly. [/quote] Actually it's not. Look up "bait car" on google.[/quote] Not even close to the same thing. That is using a car to catch people that are planning to steal cars. This was getting a kid to buy pot, that had no intention of buying pot to begin with. [Edited on 02.28.2012 6:36 PM PST]

The policy of the American government is to leave their citizens free, neither restraining nor aiding them in their pursuits. I would have stopped this officer by force if I were there.

Bull you need a lot of marijuana to get a felony charge.

Stupid police.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] MrBojangles136 [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Prove Me Wrong [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] MrBojangles136 [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Prove Me Wrong Not if you have any regard for the supreme law they all swore to uphold. "The policy of the American government is to leave their citizens free, neither restraining nor aiding them in their pursuits." -Thomas Jefferson[/quote] I guess you can quote that to an officer when they try to arrest you for possession. I'm sure they'll agree with you. [/quote] The fact that there is tyranny doesn't help your point, or lackthereof. Anyone that tries to take my freedoms will be starring down the barrel of a shotgun. I don't care if you are a cop or not.[/quote] I suppose defending your "right" to commit a crime, by committing a crime makes the second crime ok too? [/quote] What "crime?" The only crime is the government's unjust laws. Also, defending liberties to death is not a crime, it's the duty of the people.

You know why "drugs" are even an issue in society? It's simple, some are illegal, some have an age requirement, and some require a prescription. The ego-driven society is, as always, undecided. O dem bad crimnelz and deh jrugz... Ownly eff deh drank teh licker instedd uv doin dose juiceys! Maybeh deh deprezzed or crazy, hurr taek deez pillz yo, deh gud! What's broken is the [u]entire[/u] judicial system though... And to the story presented here, obvious entrapment is obvious. P.S. Folks, the situation is really straight forward, 14 pages of repetitive dicussion? I had no expectations...

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] MrBojangles136 [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] falln4reach and tricked him into buying drugs.[/quote] lol It's not like the cop sprinkled magic dust in the kids face, or used his jedi mind tricks. The kid shouldn't be stupid enough to buy drugs. [/quote] Either way, there isn't much to discuss here. The kid will get off on all charges, as it is entrapment, as many have said. He had no previous intentions to do it.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] NinStarRune Who's stupid enough to mistake a 25-year old for a 18-year old? Are we sure this wan't Danny Bonaduce?[/quote] As a 25 year-old, I find it hard to tell how old girls are, especially if they're between 16-22.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] JeffDunham This happens everyday, ever see the biker shows on nat geo? Some episodes they stayed with the gangs for years to catch them, and sometimes even caught +50 gang members. This absolutely nothing, I feel no sorrow for this delinquent at all. [/quote] Delinquent? How? The cop posed as a teenager, got a young innocent guys trust, and tricked him into buying drugs. I feel sorry for you if your to cold hearted or too dumb to understand this.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Method Man NYC The carcinogens are created as a result of combustion; the substance itself does not impose any physical harm.[/quote] So I'm assuming because water is made of hydrogen and oxygen it's both flammable and breathable? No one has gotten cancer from smoking it and I posted a link to the evidence on page 11.
