Agreed. I think it can be fairly argued that the officers in question did not, in fact, know how shitty their field test was. Unfortunately it could just as fairly be argued that they did know and would gleefully make use of an investigative tool they knew was faulty at every opportunity just because it increases their odds of making an arrest (and then lie about it).
