Kop Busters, reality show!

[Twistid 5,000+ posts]

"KopBusters rented a house in Odessa, Texas and began growing two small Christmas trees under a grow light similar to those used for growing marijuana. When faced with a suspected marijuana grow, the police usually use illegal FLIR cameras and/or lie on the search warrant affidavit claiming they have probable cause to raid the house. Instead of conducting a proper investigation which usually leads to no probable cause, the Kops lie on the affidavit claiming a confidential informant saw the plants and/or the police could smell marijuana coming from the suspected house.

"The trap was set and less than 24 hours later, the Odessa narcotics unit raided the house only to find KopBuster's attorney waiting under a system of complex gadgetry and spy cameras that streamed online to the KopBuster's secret mobile office nearby.

maybe cops will watch this and stop being such dickheads/scumbag.. No disrespect to those cops that actually are worth a ****.. I can't tell you how many times middle of the day i see cop cars sitting in a parking lot at the park here.. 3 or 4 and they sit there for hours.. and this isn't a park that gets vandalized or anything so.. and i see them sitting in parking lots behind my old job facing opposite of anything..

They do that to catch up on their paperwork. Nothing wrong with just sitting there.

The lies and falsifying documents and such is reprehensible though. Those kind of cops should be kicked off the force.

Tricking the cops should be illegal.

I dont get it (n00b) How did the cops target the house? Can they detect these special lamps or something?

did you know that those heat lamps increase your electricity consumption significantly enough to a point where it can become obvious of suspicious activity?

with that in mind, find out all the legal documentation "Kopbusters" is using against them, set your own "grow stash" and wait til you get raided, then sue!

it's the american way!

nope.. Like I said (n00b) So, the fact that it is running at all times and drawing all the electricity tips em off? Do they get tips from the electric company then?

What is a FLIR camera? just googled it, its a thermal imaging camera, but can it see through walls? Do the cops drive around with them or what?
