that is, i've been told that there are a lot more police reports than you'd expect which mention, for example, an arrest for posession of drugs having occured after the suspect accidentally dropped a bag of cocaine (which was subsequently found in his pocket during the arrest). <snip> i don't remember where i heard that, though, so i'm not sure how true it is. anyone know?
Well, I certainly can't speak for the whole country, but I read a lot of police reports in my area and I've never seen anything like this. I'm sure it's possible, but I've never heard of it. Maybe it's more common in really urban areas, but I've never seen it here.
