To put it in a different perspective, if I were driving around with empty beer cans in my car, I would expect problems if I got pulled over by the police. Nobody in their right mind would accept the "I didn't know it was there" excuse in that case, and I don't see why pills would be any different.
I agree 100% that the truth should have come out in court and that the end result (if true) was ridiculous. All I'm saying is that from the cop's perspective the evidence on the scene looked sketchy and he did his job.
What's the problem with empty beer cans? Don't you Americans have breathalizers to know if a person was under the influence while driving that you need to fuck people over for being untidy?
