It doesn t happen nearly often enough, but it s always enjoyable to watch a court lay the smackdown on a law enforcement officer s literally unbelievable assertions. And this case [PDF] via FourthAmendment.com contains a claim from a supposedly trained and experienced officer that s so ridiculous, the court has no choice but to discredit his testimony completely.
Indianapolis police officer Daniel Hiser performed a traffic stop that resulted in the discovery of marijuana and a handgun in Davon Gray s possession. But it s the events leading up to the stop that triggered the court s BS detector events that include Officer Hiser s apparently miraculous olfactory sense.
