Police keep shooting themselves in the foot
I support the police in general but they really do stupid things sometimes. A Disney World security employee searched a 69 year old grandma’s purse and found a legal pain medicine derived from hemp. They called the Orlando police who arrested her, stripped searched her with s cavity search and put her in jail for 15 hours. All that time she was separated from her family. The charges were dropped when the DA realized nothing illegal was done by now panicked granny. This happed in April 2019 and since then Disney refuses to make amends. So now she hires a high profile lawyer and sues for $187 million. If I were on the jury she would get all every penny. Too many CEOs think they are above the law and too many police officers are ignorant of the law.

I'm 100% behind Law Enforcement and I'm sorry for the good officers..
But! A Los Angeles police officer accused of fondling a dead woman while on duty... |

187 million? You’re shyt’en me. IMO worth about about 100K if that, but when you got sleazy lawyer’s they ask for well only 187 million. I mean why not just round it off to 200 million?

Foolish error for sure and hope the appropriate people have to find new employment but considering there are so many police law of averages says sometimes errors are made.

Isolated incidents do not portray the general reality.
They just make good news fodder....and unfortunately are presented as if representative of the general/majority. |

Looks like some context is needed here. I'm using a write-up from "heavy.com" about this case. ( Hester Jordan Burkhalter: 5 Fast Facts You Need to Know | Heavy.com ) For starters, CBD oil is not legal in to possess and use in Florida unless you have a prescription for it. Yes, you can buy it, and there's the obvious disconnect with the law. But you still need a prescription for it and need the THC content in it to be lower than a specific percentage.

Obviously, the fact that you can buy CBD oil at gas stations and the like in Florida calls for the legislature to get involved, as it is confusing to a customer. Either change the law about CBD possession, or outlaw its sale in the state. But this isn't about that. This, to me, is about whether the police acted legally. Seems like - according to the heavy.com article, anyway, that they did. |
