they'd have to prove intent
"Norman Gurley, 30, is facing drug-related charges in Lorain County, Ohio, despite the fact that state troopers did not actually find any drugs in his possession. Ohio passed a law in 2012 making it a felony to alter a vehicle to add a secret compartment with the 'intent' of using it to conceal drugs for trafficking." This is the first person arrested under the strange law.
they'd have to prove intent
This is true, unless they have him on this angle:
I didn't read the whole thing yet. I wonder if this is a valid arrest, or bogus because of how the intent of a law is often misused.(D) No person who has been convicted of or pleaded guilty to a violation of aggravated trafficking in drugs under section 2925.03 of the Revised Code that is a felony of the first or second degree shall operate, possess, or use a vehicle with a hidden compartment.
Once again, I say we need a "scope" and "purpose" of all laws. The black and white of the law is often abused.
Check that used car you bought.
For secret compartments you can't find.
I could go for a free...bird....Free Beer!
Well, it IS funny, ya gotta admit.
Sometimes things like this are really what it takes to convince people that a law was at least poorly written if not poorly conceived as well.
smh...people cant even modify their own cars without being charged with a felony. what a silly law.
just hide that in your tires
Except that felonys aren't very funny.
It's a travesty there's a law like this on the books, imo.
How did the cops find the secret compartment
Just the private prison libertarian utopia we live in, no surprises here.
