News Pot dealer's tragic choice ended in death - Page 11

15 min ABC video about Rachel Hoffman 23, a college student busted with dealing pot. She was given a choice to be an informant or 4 years in prison.
The "deal" she was on went terribly wrong ending in her death.

The Tallahassee police clearly were looking for the bust and were not taking her safety in mind. She was not a professional but was asked to purchase large quantities of drugs and a hand gun. She had no weapons charges but was asked to purchase one. The police blame her because she left the plan that was originally conceived.

The Tallahassee police FAILED horribly in so many ways.

Sorry if repost, I searched!

It's a joke that puts money into the pockets of killers with badges.

She was one more life snuffed out in this so called "war" on drugs. I agree with you this war is not working, but bureaucrats must give the illusion they're actually doing good when all it does is pack our prisons with non-violent criminals and cost us tax payers more. It's a vicious cycle that I hope to see the end of before I die.

I'll tell you what part. The Everton Police Department isn't. The entire police force puts in no more than 20 hours a week and they won't write tickets on any of the locals. ( Because the city can't afford to hire a prosecutor )
