Wyoming Supreme Court Dumps drug conviction
Christopher Lee
Wyoming has a much larger political problem than Mary Cheney.

The cop had probable cause for the stop.
The judges disregarded that and decided police can’t speed to catch up.
This is akin to Chicago’s no foot pursuit idiocy.
Road speeds in Wyoming are different than other places.
The state only has about a third of million people.
Cops have to speed all the time and it’s legal for them to do so.
Drug dog sniffs are perfectly acceptable without ANY probable cause under long standing Supreme Court caselaw as long as the subject is not detained much to bring the dog.
The further implications of this ruling will lead to people challenging any stop if the cop cannot describe P.C. before he even accelerates to confirm or observe.

We're losing our "country of laws," bit by bit.

We are becoming a lawless nation of ex-men, and rainbow dancers.

"ex-men and rainbow dancers" Love that phrase Bill! I will shamelessly steal it for use later...

I might too. Except that I have to be careful since I have a gay daughter and a gay niece (wife's daughter).
