He was passed out drunk in a running car in the middle of the night.

There's really no choice for the cop there. Same thing happened to a UGA player a while back. No complaints from me. That's legitimate.


Having a parking ticket escalated to weed bust is the cop LOOKING for a reason to bust the kid. It's different.

Yeah, cop sees weed and smells it, completely different here...

BTW what is illegal about sleeping in a running car?

Hand's first hearing was supposed to be in September.

I can't find any google results to an article to say what happened.

Have the charges been quietly dropped?

See what I mean? Undisputed facts run counter to his narrative. Instead of perhaps reexamining what he thinks or having the self awareness that his perceptions might be incorrect he just plows ahead truth be damned. Welcome to Trumpmerica.

So if a cop sees weed in a car he's just supposed to let it slide? It escalated from a parking ticket to a weed citation because of the own player's stupidity. It's not unusual for a traffic stop to escalate into something bigger because of other things that are discovered in the process. Stop acting like your player is a victim.
