We cannot continue to let this happen, the law enforcement in this country is out of control, operating completely outside the law. They aren't being held accountable when they violate constitutional rights, or break laws. The judicial system has failed us the same as law enforcement has failed us, and we are going to have to fix it ourselves. Law enforcement needs to start realizing we are fed up with their behavior and we are not going to let them get away with it anymore, they need to get scared of being held accountable ON THE SPOT, RIGHT WHERE WE CATCH THEM IN VIOLATION.
I don’t get it. This gentleman owns two houses, (in this market? GOOD FOR HIM!). You can see the officer walk past/away from those houses, past another small structure, assumably a shed. He then walks onto a trail, up a hill, and past a second house sized structure. Why isn’t he arresting whomever owns THAT property? What happened to common sense?
These two "officers" have nothing better to do then to harass these good people. They are seriously investigating Marijuana plants that are growing randomly? Total insanity.
These officers must get off to over powering individuals and roughing them up. Doesn't matter that they just ruined somebody's day and for some their lives but now these people have no trust, and shouldn't, ever trust the police again.
Bro, You need to stop bringing race into this. I don't believe race had anything to do with it.. Its just cops abusing their power. I've been treated like this & I'm white..
One thing rhat i didnt gear anyone mention is that outdoor marijuana is harvested from august to november. Thay said rhey just moved in in july. They could have easily checked with the landlord to see if they truly had just moved in in July and then ruled them out because the plants would have been growing long before that. Simple police qork that police simply wont do.
The fact that the cop doesn't understand how being accused of a crime right from the jump could scare someone who is innocent is indicative that he needs serious retraining at a minimum.
Any cop who doesn't immediately provide their name should be considered a criminal impersonating an officer, and any force needed to resist them should be lawful

People need to have a "come back with a warrant" sign on their porch
Typical gestapo move

Oh hell I live beside a liquor store and if they find a bottle of liquor I might get arrested for bootlegging

Update from a year ago, is not an update?

If they are like the cops around here, they most likely took the plants home and replaced them at their neighbor’s house.

That was just a bit more than 80 ft from his house, certainly not on his property.

How in the hell did they even know it was there. That looked like it was 300 feet in the woods?
These cops need to do time in jail , and be sued and have to pay out of their own pocket not tax payers pocket. Hope you win
Sue them
Those officers should both be fired for that crap.
Most West Virginia cops think they are above the law
Protect and serve is a friggin joke
Do you have a warrant? No? Get off my property.
No warrant these people didn't arm there self

Is the deputy fired? 👍🤙
It wasn't even Marijuana.
There wasnt even buds on those plants….
