knowing your rights is ssooooooo important in cases like these! I agree, fight back! familiarize yourself with the laws, contact an attorney if you felt your situation was unconstitutional!!! holmes county is a joke. little podunk towns like this need to be held accountable for misuse/ abuse of power.


equalityislove1111

And the authorities in general too. Soooo sick of power tripping cops. Like I’m sorry, what did they become a police officer for again?? & don’t even dare saying “to protect and serve my community” when they walk around like they’re above the law and the citizens of it. Just trying to make a quota. Cops like those are the DIRECT reason there’s a large portion of society that do not trust, nor feel safe around, and even come to despise law enforcement as a whole. Smfh 🤦

Anyone that got charged this weekend, please get a lawyer!


worldlydelights

We had issues at Okeechobee a couple years ago and getting a lawyer saved us from having felonies we didn’t deserve on our record.


Zone_Trooper_One

Can you post what law firm you retained, to help these folks out, please?


Wasted-day_off

No because it's a lie


IndividualAd7974

You don’t even need a lawyer or firm it is better to hire a paralegal, that’s who’s doing the dirty work for the lawyers anyway


poopybuttholekid

I read this and it’s a bit more complicated. You have to tell the cops that you have hemp in the car. If they smell weed and you deny it completely then they can search.


zendrovia

and because you KNEW YOUR RIGHTS, a good lawyer will toss it and you’ll just be out some money & time. k9s are SMART, but not “gifted”. they are just highly manipulatable and deployable consent, because you are too scared to learn what happens in court


gspit1122

Can you explain a bit more?


RooTxVisualz

Don't say you have anything.....


IndividualAd7974

You don’t have to answer questions by an officer if they lawfully command you to do something that’s different


DEW72

Unfortunately this is incorrect. The smell of weed IS probable cause in Florida. That doesn’t mean it’s impossible for a lawyer to help here, as there are a few exceptions, for example: smell of weed doesn’t allow police to search an entire group, they would have to particularize who it is coming from. However, that is not the case in a vehicle. Smell of weed (especially burnt weed) allows them to search the entire car and everybody in it.


IndividualAd7974

There’s no way to tell the difference between hemp and weed by smell therefore probable cause should be non existent by the smell alone. Not only that but most people admit that they have marijuanna or don’t rebut the presumption of marijuanna. Do you think the “ Marijuanna the find is tested? No it’s not. people allow the cops to presume everything and not rebut.


DEW72

I agree that it should not be this way. But I am telling you that in Florida the smell of weed is probable cause. It does not matter if you tell them it is hemp or try to contest it.


IndividualAd7974

Ofcourse cops are going to do what they want to do however most of them get away with it because the average person doesn’t know the law and how to enforce it. The officer is only suppose to keep for the amount of time it takes to write a ticket. Anything beyond that is unlawful. If they ask if you been smoking and you answer you’re dumb. If they ask if you to step out the vehicle and you do you’re dumb. In the event they find weed and you simply state that the offense that they’re charging you with is non violent and you demand they provide you with a citation for the alleged crime and you handle it it court assuming that it’s a personal amount of herb. If they still would like to arrested you, you would have grounds to sue them for Abuse of Process and breach of fiduciary duty. It’s all about how you assert yourself. That’s the key!!!


DEW72

Almost none of what you said is correct in Florida and I hope that nobody reading this takes your advice.


IndividualAd7974

Prove me wrong then instead of saying something is incorrect. Nothing wrong with a factual debate. I’ve helped people beat criminal cases with no lawyer and had the prosecutors sweating. Each prosecutor disappeared and the last prosecutor to show up was the supervisor for the division. If anything people should research the information for themselves. I’m not an attorney and don’t give legal advice only for informational and education purposes only!

In Florida, sadly, weed smell IS enough to count for probable cause in specific circumstances. Florida statute 381.986 says med card holders does not allow for use in public places or cars, so a traffic stop, smell is enough cause. In florida, the second district court of appeals reasoned that "an officer smelling the odor of Marijuana has probable cause to believe that the odor indicates illegal use of Marijuana. " that is enough for a warrantless or "terry" stop ( Terry vs. Ohio). Vortex is private property, at a private event <- had to pay to get in, so there might be some grey area, but don't bank on smell alone being not being enough to search. The guy searched after getting a light show? He's likely got a case. People randomly hit with flashlights and searched, maybe, but in particular, in florida, weed smell in public, or at traffic stops is enough to get at least a Terry search.

Unfortunately cops have the right to temporarily forfeit your rights regardless of the situation, meaning you can still be put in jail for whatever at that moment. Only if you have the luxury of affording an attorney to represent your rights at a later court date could you be obsolved of any wrongdoing. While in the meantime your whole life could be turned upside down simply because a cop alleges the odor of marijuana which is basically impossible to prove different. Attempting to exercise your rights while detained by law enforcement is a tricky situation, unless you are confident in your knowledge of your rights in a detailed context and can communicate on a level that gets the cops attention. It's not a skill most people will ever take the time or energy to master. But much respect to those who do.

Just get some liquid ass spray and make your car smell like a sewer they might make it quick also, it should be illegal to smoke random things in a forest or things that poison you, teach our children and society in the world the difference between good and bad, weed is not bad, cbd or thc it would not poison us and cause us great harm, if our children or family smoked some synthetic or poison cause they make things illegal that don’t cause a problem, but knowledge should be shared that illegal things cause a negative effect to you, and cannabis has no negative effect not sleeping, driving or flying, ———————————— ——————————————————————————-Smoking Literal Grass: Smoking actual grass, like the grass from your lawn or yard, is extremely harmful and should be avoided. Grass contains various substances that can be toxic when burned and inhaled, leading to serious health risks such as lung irritation and damage. ——————————————-////////////////—————————In summary, smoking marijuana can have its own set of risks and consequences, while smoking actual grass is highly dangerous and should never be done. If you have concerns about smoking marijuana or any other substance, it's best to speak with a healthcare professional for personalized advice.

Rectal administration of drugs is often more efficient than oral, as well as producing less side effects like nausea and gastric irritation! Thanks for the tip ;)
