59 pounds of marijuana

Roughly the equivalent to having a bale of hay.

Outrageous tax discrimination. Why isn't the Songbird's lettuce taxed at the same rate?

Roughly the equivalent to having a bale of hay.

A bale of hay with $59,000 street value.

A bale of hay with $59,000 street value.

This is what happens when government meddles in the free market, huge profits for the D&R party drug cartel. Without Trump & Jeff Sessions price fixing it would cost about $29.95 per bale on ebay.

With liberal socialists, such as Bill DeBlasio, a bale could not be sold. Just as the liberal socialists have limited the size of a Big Gulp, sales would be limited to a gram, and each gram would be subject to a tax -- for the children and education. In San Fran, the tax can help clean up the poop in the street.

No record found that she is related to a cop.

Doesn't need to be related but perhaps she is working as an informant for them.

Dicktard is famous for creating a little spoiled girl, hysterical DRAMA... to trigger his sheep followers, when he can locate one or two incidents out of millions, and claim a nationwide epidemic. Just like Black Lies Matters or MSM in general.

You wanna know why he acts like CNN? Because he was in the fake news liberal MSM business.

Still the coward I see.

coward

It’s more of laziness. lol

You simpleton.

[Thread article] The Nebraska State Patrol says a trooper made a traffic stop of the woman's car on Dec. 17 just after she left Interstate 80 in North Platte. The trooper discovered the driver, Estrada, was wanted on a 2010 traffic citation for speeding in eastern Nebraska. She lives in North San Juan, California.

There is another possible explanation of why the case was disposed of as it was.

Missing from the article is any description of the trooper's cause or justification for the traffic stop. Running the plate, and discovering the outstanding 2010 citation after the stop, would not justify the stop.

A very possible reason she was transporting 59 pounds of pot was that she was muling it from California to Nebraska to profit from a higher street price. The trooper may have observed the driver, the plate and the vehicle and correctly surmised what was going on, leading him to make the stop.

While there may have been a legal problem with the stop, once the marijuana was found, it was seized and she was not getting it back. If they took the marijuana as contraband, she could have been facing civil asset forfeiture to take her vehicle as well. No charge or conviction would be required to confiscate the vehicle.

Assuming a legal problem with the stop, she still does not want to hang around in Nebraska and take her chances fighting over the stop, and the state would rather not present the case.

The pot was gone in any case. She pays the fine and restitution and gets out of Dodge, with her vehicle. The state avoids any embarrassment. The result is amenable to both sides, even if neither is overjoyed.
