The comments and answers from the driver indicate to me that she knows that weed has been in the car recently.

Is there solid evidence pointing out that the male knew the full scope of the search? I might have missed something glaring.

Possibly. The blonde suspect tells the male trooper "I have never been searched like this...she put her finger in my....." (review the tape for the balance, don't want to violate the 10 year old daughter rule).

If the male trooper had a shred of Honor he would have immediately gone to his superior and reported the female trooper.

Understood on the fact finding, but I think they are already there.

Not surprised the female got her butt in a sling...trying to find where the male went wrong, but I've only had time to watch it once.

Lack of honor.


Depending on where you (I mean this as the collective you, not gigag) went to school or what jobs you have worked at there is usually a "Honor Code" or similar. Having knowledge of a crime or inappropriate behavior and doing nothing is just as bad as participating.


Texas A&M for example:

An Aggie does not lie, cheat or steal or tolerate those who do.

The male cop tolerated what was going on, which in my mind is just as bad as what the female did.

The tone you (not collective but directly at gigag) are taking almost seems to defend at least the male cop, if not both. Is this your intention?

LE or not, I have a hard time believing anyone can see this as less than despicable.
