Marijuana You Say? Case Dismissed!
Do you remember the Dallas law enforcers that went to Botham Jean’s apartment to plant, err, find evidence to assassinate his character? This is probably going to come as a shock but they found something:
One of the warrants became a public record Thursday afternoon when it was returned to the judge who signed it. It was shortly after Jean’s funeral had ended. It listed several items found in Jean's apartment, including a small amount of marijuana.
I can see the courtroom now. The officer's defense attorney mentions that the search warrant resulted in the discovery of marijuana. The judge says, "Marijuana you say?" He then taps his gavel and says, "Case dismissed!"
Truth be told, the discovery of marijuana is irrelevant to the case at hand. Even if Officer Guyger was aware that Jean was in possession of cannabis, she had no warrant to enter the premise. Without a warrant or an invitation, which she never claimed to be given, she was in his dwelling unlawfully. But I'm sure the discovery of cannabis will give all of the boot lickers their much needed reason to defend Officer Guyger's actions and that's what the warrant was all about, assassinating Jean's character.
