re: Per SI - Texas A&M WR Ainias Smith Arrested on Gun, Drug Charges

Guy riding around with a gun and weed. You’re right no big deal. Normal civilians do this all the time.

Yes I do. Medical cannabis is a great thing. So is my P365.

Honestly don’t even care.

Why should you? Smith was obviously coming home after doing some
"preparation" for SEC media day on Thursday. He's a team captain so its important for him to set the right example for his teammates, i.e. do WTF you want and deny it when you're caught.

According to the police report and probable cause statement obtained by the Houston Chronicle, Smith was arrested for DWI after he was stopped for speeding just after 2 a.m. Wednesday. Police then found a "rolled joint of marijuana" and a gun with a "full magazine and a round chambered" during a search of the car.

Smith and a passenger in the car both denied ownership of the gun or the marijuana, according to the police report and probable cause statement obtained by the Chronicle.

A team captain in 2021, Smith led the Aggies in receptions (47) and touchdown catches (six) last season while finishing second in receiving yards (509). The 5-foot-10, 190-pound Smith has started 21 games the past three seasons and has 112 career receptions for 1,321 yards and 15 touchdowns to go with 373 rushing yards and four touchdowns.

As more details come out, my stances are so far being confirmed.

Don't give a shite about the gun or weed.

Need more details about the DWI.

Although, concerning the DWI, what's come out so far are trending towards being a bullshite charge for 2 reasons:

1. Only $2,000 bond for the DWI charge. That's very low.

2. He was pulled over for speeding. Not suspected DWI, not reckless driving. Just speeding. Which means he likely was in pretty good control of his faculties. Which makes me wonder if the officers gave him a sobriety test to try to get a reason to search the car. Will be interested to see what he blew assuming there was a breathalyzer test administered.

1. $2000 bond is standard for a Class B DWI in Texas. Has no bearing on the severity of subsequent offenses.

2. LOL. Speeding was the probable cause for the traffic stop, nothing more. If the dude was drunk or the car smelled like weed, that's all the reason they need to search the car.

This is some piss-poor internet lawyering spin.

He has not been released on bond as of this time

wtf. should've been released immediately. the cops who arrested him should be fired.

Exactly. If the police want to search the car, they have to have a reason. Administering a field sobriety test and using officer discretion to determine they failed it, gives them the ability to search the car.

Meaning if cops want to search a car, they'll give a field test.

Which is why I want to know the results of the breathalyzer, assuming one was administered. Cops can lie, but BAC doesn't. If he blew under .08, then that tells me the car search was bullshite to begin with.
