Best part about it is that none of it actually guarantees you immunity or even leniency. Best the cops can do is “put in a good word” with the prosecutor.
This reminds me of how the idiot Tallahassee Police Department negligently and recklessly arranged a transaction that led to the murder of Rachel Hoffman. >


The purported goal of the operation was to buy 1,500 ecstasy pills, 2 oz. of cocaine, and two handguns, which was contrary to department policy, using $13,000 cash in a buy–bust operation. Hoffman's family stated that all three buys were very out-of-character for her.

This part infuriates me. How incredibly incompetent do you have to be to not see this is a bad idea? Obviously, the dealer is going to be immediately suspicious when their regular weed customer suddenly says “oh by the way, this time I also want to buy a fuckload of hard drugs that I can definitely afford somehow and some guns too because this party is gonna be nutzzz” like how in the actual fuck did they think it was going to play out? >

Coercing a person to do your bidding under threat of imprisonment because they possessed 6 ounces of weed and 4 ecstasy pills also does not sit right with me.
