Jeff White said:I'm just pointing out that he's not pure as the driven snow, and most likely not the victim most of you believe he is. I'm betting he's convicted. Of course then I'm sure that many here will think he's been framed.
I've been in my share of meth houses. 2 scales, other paraphernalia, baggies (as I said before, only interesting if they have the corners torn out), Meth bought from the residence, right now given the limited facts we have, I'd say it's pointing to a conviction.
You live a criminal lifestyle or hang with those who do, don't be surprised when you're splattered with the filth. Ingle should thank whatever God he believes in that he's still breathing.
I was especially touched with the part of the Arkansas Times article where I believe his sister said he never intended to hurt anyone because he pointed a broken gun at the officers. Like they were supposed to know it was a broken gun.
I think you guys have picked the wrong case to be outraged over.
Yeah, I agree. Typical responses in this thread.
Nothing short of the substance itself will satisfy some folks that an item is in-fact drug paraphernalia.
I mean, hell, the burned out glass tube that was designed to hold the little plastic trinket flower, which is now stuffed with burned copper brillo. Well, that's just a silly coincidence. The piece of wire in the same pocket with it couldn't possibly be a push rod!
Dear god, we're framing everyone.
But, hey, they weren't his pants anyway...
Heck, I'm not even trying to comment on whether or not this incident was legitimate. Even the source cited is biased. But, any way you slice it, some folks on here would label it a conspiracy, a cover-up, or the like, regardless of what really happened.
For instance, typical views would follow as such:
1) If I found contraband during a consent search, the search must have been coerced.
2) If I participate in a no-knock warrant, I must have done it to "intimidate the public", and for no other good reasons
3) If I find drug paraphernalia, I must have been trying to pin a BS charge on someone (despite getting many a crack-pipe conviction in court out of arrests that occurred off of the little crack corner in my city).
4) If I wrote the warrant, I must have lied to get it signed by a judge.
5) If we shoot someone and their gun isn't loaded, we must have known that (granted, not many folks on this board would buy that line... but it has been used in other officer involved shootings by other folks).
But, I digress.
