How this doesn't get these cops fired for trying to falsely arrest someone using a test they likely know is flawed is insane (who would ever look at a white spot on the top of a car and think "yep that's cocaine"??). If there was any sense and lack of lobbying by police unions in the US it would be an easy priority to draft better laws on actions of cops.
In this instance, it's hard not to question the intelligence of a police officer thinking a white spot on the outside of a car might be drugs.
But overall, in the War on Some Substances, anything goes. Blame needs to start at the top. It's not like the cop purchased these widely-discredited field tests on their own.
