    as for your point about the radar malfunctioning,I do believe you are right, and in that case the evidence would still be admissible becuase the cop was acting in good faith

    its happened to me

    I was pulled over doing 52 in a 45. the problem was there was no posted speed limit (the sign was covered with burlap, road work was starting within a day or 2) In NY, if there is no posted speed limit, the speed limit is 55, so I was not speeding per the law. After the fact, they found a dime bag in my car (dumb friend, fell out of his pocket onto my back seat)

    It took me 6 months of going to court but after proving that the speed limit sign was obscured (by the town) I got the initial contact thrown out. And because the cop had no right to pull me over, he had no right to search my car, therefore the possession charge was also thrown out

    (legally) found the site, any further evidence should be tossed out of court.

    for example, you get pulled over for speeding, but you were not speeding and can prove it, cops find a bag of weed on you. that gets tossed out as soon as you prove you were not speeding. same thing should apply here

    that is the question I am wondering. The cops knew he was here illegally, thats all that should be needed to deport him. period. Why the waste of money and resources on something that should take the department 30 seconds to get immigration to come pick him up??? When I was in german (and i am/look german) I was stopped no less than 10 times in a week for them to check my passport. why is that so hard to do in america???

    while legally you might be correct, but logically, its simply wrong.

    If I can get something I want, and no one is offering it up to me at a nominal fee, I find nothing wrong with taking a free copy of said item. legally it might be wrong, morally, fuck them for not letting me access something I would gladly pay for if they would let me.
