If the police stop you, say on New Year's Eve, checking for drunk drivers at a spot where everybody is being pulled over randomly (i.e., without probable cause), and find pot on your car seat, can you be arrested? You're not drunk.
I assume you can, but what about the protection of the 4th Amendment since there was no probable cause to begin with? Just a random search. |

Well, if you can do the crime, then you can do the time. |
