Hey Sam,
Out of four class A charges, 2 were dropped and the other two were dropped to a class C. We paid a 200 dollar fine and 200 dollar court fee on each case, plus had to give up all our stuff. Part of it was due to the DA handling our case was out for an illness when our court date came up, he had agreed to drop 3 charges and we pay a fine on the fourth. The new guy handling the case said he could find no paperwork stating any of this, so we plead no contest to 2 class C charges paid our fines and called it a day.

Sounds to me like the police and the DA’s ideas of what evildoers that need to be prosecuted are not the same.

I also know of two cases from the Straddle raids that got dismissed with no problems.
