@@NoCreamForYoui think it all depends on the amount its legal for medical in arkansas but i dont think 80 lbs is for medical. its still a felony how ever you look at it with that amount

[@MikeLockheart]

The police dog wont be able to smell it if the criminal wears gloves when loading the weed into the vacum bag, and makes absolutly sure he doens't touch anywhere on the outside of the bag of plastic, and puts it in something like coffee, or strong engine grease. But even one tiny touch of the gloves on the outside of the bag, and the dog can smell it for years after.. quite incrediable the police dogs nose, but not foolproof.

[@arkansaspoliceactivity]

@@naughtystep285 Great idea, I'll look into finding some training footage.

[@CarolinaBobby]

Looks like they checked all the boxes for a traffic stop: ✅ Out of state plates ✅ Very minor traffic violation ✅ Rental car ✅ Wishy-washy story ✅ Odor of marijuanna We have ourselves a drug mule!

[@kenjames3346]

That's not a mule; that's a MAGA Swamp Donkey!

[@tecwzrd]

Report said no oder detected but other than that spot on. Story was off which is what alearted him to being a possible drug mule. I'm sure plenty of people have stories that are off as well but are clean but it raises suspicion either way.

[@SallySallySallySally]

It was the usual "following too close" pretext. They were tipped off and were waiting for him.

[@hazelbee2191]

and out of Oklahoma. Heard that mentioned as a hot spot on other traffic stop

[@Chrisss2112]

✅ No front plate on a rental

[@mitchmoe6224]

Mental note: dont drive through Arkansas unless you plan on having your driving skills majorly critiqued by ASP. This is the second video watched where someone was pulled over for following to close. These police officers need to come to Illinois, they'd have perps pulled over all day!

[@Janterjay]

I suspect this was actually a tip off, so the Trooper was being picky as an excuse

[@metarugia3981]

"Following too close" is a tactic ASP use to pull people over suspected of running drugs. Any vehicle with an interstate tag, especially if it's a rental is a prime suspect for drug mules.

[@xe9ys]

I guarantee you that he could smell weed as soon as he started talking to the guy. It's also the second time I've heard someone say they are coming Oklahoma and that's also a sign they are transporting weed.

[@Shawn-ne6ld]

These stops are the result of informants.

[@williamtoms2123]

[@ItsMeRockyT]

People talk WAAAYYYY too much. "Officer, give me my ticket and let me on my way." and say nothing else. Soon as he answered he flew to Dallas, that was it. Busted! lol

​@@whataboutrob442I got pulled over with California plates. I smoked weed in my car the night before because I like to hotbox my car, listen to music and drink a beer in my own driveway. Cop wanted to search my car and I said no, he brought canine and Said dog alerted and had probable cause to search. Well they spent like an hour searching and found nothing 😂. I was sober of course, but it was hilarious how hard they were trying to find something but no with me sir 😂

[@Johnny_Utah187]

Didn’t signal properly? Somebody snitched.

[@TR99FRC]

That’s what I’m saying, it’s the same song and dance every time. Following too closely, rental car with a stupid story, coming from Oklahoma with weight. Someone is snitching…

[@jobeymathew998]

Yep.They got info on the guy.this is not a random stop.

[@alexkbenjamin]

Cops can scan the license plate and determine it's a rental. Then they just need to wait to get a reason to pull them over.

[@hanknavarro3415]

Doesn't seem any one is snitching they just get them out of state plates

No shit that's what I thought. The cop was literally up the road waiting

[@dogeboss9662]

Yeah it’s all fake dog didn’t even signal , they just use that as an excuse to search whatever they want. Meanwhile in my city black dudes are driving around with bumpers hanging off dark tints no plate speeding smoking weed and don’t get pulled over

[@GaetanoDeStefano-b1p]

Well, I thought I was in Illinois, but found out that I am getting pulled over in Arkansas but I thought I was going to Oklahoma to catch a train to Florida then drive to Michigan to pick up another rental in Iowa....... YOU CANT FIX STUPID!!!!! HOW MANY TIMES DO I HAVE TO POST THIS?????? Good job ASP.

[@Tayeb-Little-T-]

we can clearly see that this Trooper has a job because he immediately identifies the strange behavior and responses of the individual, congratulations to the officers for this seizure of grass! 👍

[@cee_tee]

Yeah. Great attitude from that cop all around. Treated the suspect with complete respect before and after he made the arrest. We need more like these.

[@Tayeb-Little-T-]

yes you are absolutely right, he makes you want to become a police officer in Arkansas!!! ​@@cee_tee

[@jesusgalvan317]

Definitely a tip. He knew exactly what he was going to find. He didn't ask if there was any drugs he asked is there any weed.

[@JacobC479]

Probably because he just came out of Oklahoma

[@Joe-ym6bw]

That went by me good point

[@rikellis7871]

Great job Dex, yep these drug mules dont have a good storyline about their travel, once again, he flew from Dallas to Oklahoma and picked up that car with Colorado plates heading to Memphis, that means he's contacted the CARTEL BUSINESSES via social media, gets lots of travelling money and a destination and drives asap, to get there. Excellent law enforcement investigation techniques!!! He is potentially a Drug Cartel Member, they've heavily infiltrated DALLAS AND HOUSTON(ADDED INTEL)

[@Skunkhunt_42]

You really should study up. What if the mules case is dropped due to it being hemp?

[@John-s7z3i]

Cops 100% have been tipped off about all of these stops.. no way they pull people over and just “figure” this stuff out every time.

[@shawneemac1ify]

Yup

[@dennissvitak5475]

Dude needs a much simpler story. From Chicago, in Arkansas, and been to Texas, Oklahoma, Tennessee, and with a rental with Colorado plates.

[@christiangonzales7429]

Happy new year, APA! Hope you are staying warm and safe in this intense weather. Down here in the Houston area, we are bracing for it!

[@arkansaspoliceactivity]

Stay safe down there Christian

[@Pauley_in_GP]

As others have said, I think there was a tip involved. I guess it could be just great police work or cops that have psychic abilities, but it sure seems that whenever someone is pulled over on KZbin for following a truck too closely, the cops will be asking to look in the trunk within a few minutes. (Not that there's anything wrong with that 😀.)

[@keithclayton1271]

With the prevalence of drug dealers carrying firearms Law Enforcement would be crazy to send a single unit to investigate a reliable tip. If it's a reliable tip they often will observe at a distance so they can cuff the buyers as well, especially when it's a federal investigation (inter-state drug smuggling = federal and usually large quantities). They'll follow vehicles with out-of-state plates sometimes just to watch their driving and if the driver does anything improper they analyze their body language and answers to questions after initiating a stop. These are nothing more than criminals driving stupidly, and being even more stupid once they're pulled over. No tips involved.

[@BlueBeeMCMLXI]

Look, always look in the magician's trunk.

Thanks Blend

[@trumpmuskteam]

I think CPL Meeks can be a K9 himself since he knew there were weeds in the trunk before the real K9 confirmed. CPL Meeks rocks!!

Hey Christian! Good to see you sir. Get ready, it's terrible here....Head to the store if you can get out my friend.

Haha that K9 didn’t even confirm anything and that was obvious 😂

[@mcpbaa3000]

I think it's pretty clear that someone snitched on homeboy.

[@ncprimetime]

honestly the trooper appears to find reasons to pull over people ESPICALLY out of state rentals. im thinking they have state of the art plate scanners that helps with these things. people work out of state all the time, but rentals are not so common.

[@therealavolpe]

​@@ncprimetime They use license plate readers dotted around the interstates

[@PeggyLowman-ug6vo]

The more he talks, the deeper he gets. He probably should have come up with a better story from the beginning. 😆 I like Trooper Middlecoff, he’s always courteous, but I wouldn’t want to mess with him.

[@TheZombaslaya]

Yeah that's clearly a pretextual stop, the guy used his turn signal, and that cop was too far back to see how close he was to that semi truck.

[@Alex-xi2nz]

Keep telling yourself that.

[@tecwzrd]

I could make it out that he was too close to the semi before turning just from the dashcam. Turn signal to turn back in front of the semi was a bit suspect as he traveled close to 100ft before making the turn. (you travel 95 feet per second going 65 mph and you don't want to wait 3 seconds before making a turn)

[@ChrisMFlorida]

So what? If the dude was clean they would've let him go.

It’s amazing to me these mules think our Troopers are so stupid.. Why in hell would you knowingly refuse an continue to refuse even when The Trooper said a drug k9 is on the way. Mind boggling Great job 👍👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸

Because if you give consent to search, your lawyer can't get it thrown out because of illegal seizure. By refusing to let them search, he gives his lawyer something to work with.

The ole if there’s drugs the dog will smell it real easily in the open air followed by 3-4 laps around the car with no alert whatsoever followed by 3-4 prompted passes by the driver side doors until…the alert on side door for weed in the trunk! 🤔 Then let’s shut the trunk and pull doggo back out and see if he can get it right this time. Nope. Then hey let’s bring another dog out see how he does. Nope.

[@rayr4320]

These drug trap officers must be profiling certain car models having out of state plates at select chokepoints. This video makes it look like wizardry, but i wonder what the percentage of these calculated stops yield a positive drug bust? If its 1:10 it is impressive. I bought a house in marathon florida and I stay there between rentals about 4 weeks out of the year. I have a 20 yr old pickup that stays down there and I immediately get stopped once per year. Im an ex con with out of state driver's license but they never ever ask me if there is dope in the vehicle.

[@PmoneySkates]

Used his signal just fine and gave plenty of reasonable distance around the tractor trailer, these cops violating

[@anim8torfiddler871]

Lot of speculation about the Officer's true source of information, or possible psychic abilities. But following too close sure provides a LOT of employment for EMS personnel, they end up administering aid for plenty of folks who weren't able to brake in time. I was married to a Firefighter who drove ambulance often. She had a lot of stories to share.

[@bjr4567]

Try out of state tags for starters.

I was under the impression the police couldn’t hold someone up to wait on a drug dog. They could only use them if they could get there during a reasonable stop time.

[@amosfrench7169]

every state has a different law on that

[@cee_tee]

My understanding of that law, I’m sure someone will correct me if I’m wildly mistaken, is that the officer can’t hold the subject for an UNREASONABLE amount of time. While the suspect had to wait for a bit, I’m not sure id call it an entirely unreasonable amount of time.

One thing I've learned about this out-of-state plates you're getting pulled over. You don't have any rights you can refuse they're going to say the dog hit and search your car one way or another.
