Cops serve baseless warrant on Afroman, find nothing, steal his money, then Afroman makes music video out of raid footage, cops mad!

That is some cold, gold shit! If Afroman was an old white guy with straight hair, he would totally be Ricardo Montalban!
Attorney Steve Lehto has some thoughts about this -
Adams county is pretty much farm country. I hunted that area for many years. I don't recall ever seeing a black person there. I do know that hwy 32 from Cincinnati east through Clermont, Brown, Highland and Adams counties are not the place to speed or give the PO PO a reason to stop you. My hunting partner was driving a bit fast and we got stopped. Mirrored sun glasses and Smokey Bear hat cop comes to the window and says... Boy, do you know how fast you was driving through my town? I busted out laughing. I thought It was a scene from Smokey and the Bandit. 6 mph over and an out of state tag. Must be a major drug route
I was on my way back from an Idaho hunting trip with my dad, and got pulled over in South Dakota for 5-over in the interstate. The cop put me in the back of his squad car and questioned me for 45 minutes trying to trip me up to gain probable cause to tear my truck apart. He finally gave up and gave me a written warning for 5 over! When I got back to my truck my 75 year old dad said "What the Hell was that all about!??" I explained to him what a fishing trip is...
Back the blue!

Stopped in Brantley, AL about 30 years ago for not turning right from a right turn lane. Midnight, no traffic. I thought it was the fat cop from the old, "You in a heap of trouble, boy," Dodge commercials. He berated me for a couple minutes, noticed the DOD decal on my windshield and demand my "milletary eye-dee card." "Yore eye-dee card got you out of a ticket this time, boy. Ya'll might get away wid dat shit in Flada, but not in my town."
i hope he counter sues. oh, and put me on that jury please.
Pure brilliance on Afromam’s part!
There's a time limit on the amount of time they can detain you for a traffic stop. 45 minutes is beyond reasonable and if documented there's ground for a civil rights violation.
Who signed the warrant? Could it be a judge.
Perhaps the suit should go to the judge that signed off on the warrant.

Tell me you didn’t watch the video without telling me.Did you just assume the baselessness of that warrant?

Thats tough when youre driving west through Kansas in the middle of nowhere, get stopped, "Because you swerved and I thought you might be drowsy" which translates to "You were driving west bound with out of state plates and you might have some money we can steal." . First thing they did was grab my cell phone so "I couldnt call in a hit on them" while they were searching the car. The whole incident cost me 3 hours and a trashed car. If it hadnt been such a headache they would have been funny like the Keystone Cops. One of them had on a tactical vest that looked like he bought it at Woolworth's.
And I respect the law, and those who HONORABLY uphold it.
One would hope. These are public officials acting in the capacity of their public jobs.
Small town PD shakedown. Usually what they'll do is write you up for going much faster than you were because they know you won't drive 8hrs just to fight a 285$ ticket.
Probably the Honorable Judge Rubberstamp.
Reyes v United States 2015
and yeah 15 minutes is about how long they can hold you without probable cause or a warrant.
Did you give them permission to search car? How is "sleepy driving" grounds to detain you for hours and search car?
No, they got a drug dog and said he alerted on the car. No drugs or money found.
2 guns to none do what they want.
It happens all the time.
You are right, I let me uninformed bias dictate my comment. Difference is I can admit it, both the uninformed part and the bias. A great many people can't and that is part of the problem.
Wow! I can see why the fat cop is upset. The truth is painful.
Good solid days work for the boys in blue . Raided a home on an “anonymous” tip and stole money , probably took some selfies . I mean imagine how scared they must have been! It’s good training that they could over come that and still remember to steal the money .
And to think the properties rightful owner had the audacity to release the footage of the raid . That right there is grounds to get swatted. Hope they don’t have to return the money they stole .

Yeah, I should have been more specific. THEY SAID the dog alerted. All that happened is that they thought they smelled money.
There's already been the "East" vs "West" war/battles/rivalry,,,,, ad nauseum. So I guess now they're gonna do the "North" vs. "South". Sorta-like de-ja-vu.... all over again.
On the flip side. No way is that dude 100% on the "up and up." That the cops didn't find drugs is not proof that the guy isn't heavy into them. I don't know one way or the other. But, there ain't no one with that many cameras on the interior of his home that ain't into something.
says who? you? MAYBE, the motherfucker had them there to record any criminals breaking into his house. i know people (ordinary folks) who have security systems in their houses with cameras recording. one buddy even caught a thai exchange student rubbing his nuts all over their food because of it.
just because YOU don't have that type of thing, doesnt make other people who do guilty of whatever you imagine. grow up.
I just have cameras all over my house so I can watch myself banging your moms all over it.
Cameras inside and outside the house are great if you live in an area with lots of petty theft or nuisance neighbors. I have a Costco camera system because of a run-in with a wacko neighbor who would do all sorts of nonsensical shit.

My dog “alerted” to your car is the one you need to pay attention to. What’s the dogs pedigree and his nose trained to smell.
Garage cameras are another one. Too many shitheads who run into peoples garages and steal tools etc.
