Is it possible the men had paper money in their pants and the K9 picked up the smell ? Perhaps this was not a false positive after all.
Aunt worked for a school lunch room and wore gloves as she said the money turned in for lunches was filthy
So I am thinking of how two men who tested clean for drugs were made to under go all kinds of torture to find something that was not there.
These K9 are so good they can find just one seed in or out doors. If they had paper money in a back pocket they , the dogs would pick up a drug on it or their clothing, not the person.
Rent a car, how do you know the last renter did not drop a seed or a speck of coke onto the seat and you sat on it. Airline seats, bus seats, just about anywhere you sit down if contaminated with a drug, a K9 will alert on you.
One can be as pure as gold and still get their tit in the wringer. A college kid heading back to school had been visiting her boyfriends family. Her mother had at some point packed her a glass container of Celaste Tea.
In the airport her bag fell open the jar was broken and she was held until a test of the contents was taken. Came back as Hereon of some sort. Fortunately both her parents and her boyfriends parents were lawyers, and rushed off to buy other containers of the tea and sent for testing. All tests came back as drugs.
Had this girl come from a poor or even middle class family, her life would have been destroyed, there is no way to avoid being arrested. It is how one handles themselves at the arrest that counts.
Remember I had my computer arrested --out of the blue. Scared me half to death but within 3 or less weeks it was brought home and whoever had managed to hack into my PC was long gone.
Nothing like opening your door to 2 policeman with a warrant to search your home. I myself got tunnel vision and mind block or melt, I could not for the life of me remember my husbands work number, a place I had worked at for 22 years.
Happens when one is placed in a situation one has never encountered before. A frozen body and mind, fear and not being able to understand what is going on or not know to react to the happenings is what makes us victims of the bad guys.
