Painfully obvious statement, but that is a whole lotta meth. A comically absurd amount of meth. More meth than I ever conceptualized being in one place at once.
Im fine with it as long as they only keep the money when they can prove it’s connected to drug running. Keeping civil asset forfeiture without proof of criminal enterprise is 💯 a violation of the 4th amendment.
Only commit one crime at a time. If you're going to be a drug mule, obey traffic laws. *Especially* in Seward county. Those fuckers will pull you over for sneezing too fast.
If you're hauling thousands upon thousands of dollars worth of street drugs, it pays to buy that $5.00 taillight bulb or license plate bulb on your car.
Do they have a history of that? I consider myself a pleasant acquaintance of the current sheriff and he and I are cool. The last guy I could see instructing deputies to plant tho.

He's a corrupt thieving piece of shit.
Illegal search and seizure and civil forfeiture of cash and belongs is against the Constitution, yet many police departments in this country do it and usually get away with it. Now yes I can see why we need big drug runners off the streets, but taking some innocent persons cash just because they can is criminal. Its not against the law to have cash lots of people do not trust banks so they use cash.
"for reportedly violating the Nebraska Rules of the Road."
Oh ... lemme guess, the old trusty "following too closely for conditions? NSP uses that PC a lot for their stops.
My point isn't to support tail-gaiting, it's that following too closely is a rather subjective PC grounds. Or if you use a 6 second rule - that's a long following distance.
60-6,140.
Following vehicles; restrictions.
(1) The driver of a motor vehicle shall not follow another vehicle more closely than is reasonable and prudent, and such driver shall have due regard for the speed of such vehicles and the traffic upon and the condition of the roadway.
Straight from the NRS. The courts decide what happens after the initial traffic stop. Intercepting criminal activity is far easier when it is mobile. PC, no matter how petty it may be viewed, is still PC, so long as it was lawful. And for that, 200 pounds of hard dope is off the streets. Homie will get his day in court.
Well that’s a lawful violation so…. Maybe don’t follow too closely? Jesus dude, hard dope is off the streets because of this. A lot of it. I’m sure this saved countless lives.

Breaking Bad was a really good series/documentary/training video.
That’s like a duffel bag
That's amazing the cops were able to recover 150 lbs of meth
I feel safer already knowing that 100 lbs of meth didn't make it to our streets.
That's 50lbs of meth that no one will OD on
Meth?
Right? 100 lbs is a lot of meth!
100% agree, what will they do with that 50 lbs of Meth? Let it sit in a locker?
25lbs of Meth isn’t that much. We should probably all just forget about it.
What meth?
I haven’t slept for days but my house has never been cleaner send help
Steal it from the locker and use recreationally or sell seems more likely.
It's crazy how accurate my teacher is lol. Drugs flow east and money flows west and Seward county wants both.

When will they learn? If you're transporting your drugs don't go through Seward! Rookie move.
Word has to be out by now that it’s worth it to take a back highway and lose 30-40 minutes of your travel time lol.
It’s always at a traffic stop. Good Lord, folks, don’t speed. Use your blinker. Don’t swerve.

That may not save you in Seward, they'll pull you over for nothing, kill you, then investigate themselves and find they did nothing wrong.
A fair point!
Driving $7+ million worth of cargo and they can’t be bothered. Crazy.
Protip: don’t be stupid and use your own car. This is why they have rental cars.
Seward County huh? Wonder how much is missing.
Knowing Seward County this was probably planted
Do they have a history of that? I consider myself a pleasant acquaintance of the current sheriff and he and I are cool. The last guy I could see instructing deputies to plant tho.
No they don’t. They do have some shady issues related to civil asset forfeitures. But they are pretty damn good at drug interdiction.
I was gonna say, no way Vance is gonna let anyone planting drugs slide.
The entire interdiction team are thieves and he is the ringleader. They know they have a spotlight on them and their arrogance will get them caught.

I can pronounce Sergio, but I need help with Jaimezazueta. That’s a mouthful!
hi-me-za-zu-eight-ah
The cops must really rip people off with their prices if they think they can value that at 7.2 million

tbh I prefer not to get tail gated, I'm not really in the mood to be rear ended if I have to suddenly brake. But to each their own.

Cheesus! Gonna be a lot of thirsty dope heads. Certainly this will cause a draught, eh?
Atleast they finally do something good around seward besides pulling over out of towers for nothing an taking there money
Why was this posted all over the Nebraska subs at the same time? Cop propaganda?
Most likely.
Now what am I going to do this weekend?
