Carl pt. 2

I see Carl driving the same car I stopped the other day.

I flip around and light him up.

"ah man, DD"
-nothing in the car?
"no, you can search"
-I am going to pat you down for weapons, considering last time.
"understandable"

I pat him down and find an altoid's tin
"that just has weed in it"

he is clean for weapons, I look into the tin and there are two baggies, one with meth laying atop some crumbled weed.

I cuff him and he starts to object.
-what about the meth?
"i forgot that was in there"
-for someone who wants to be there for his kids you aren't trying very hard

Carl in less than 5 days has earned several felonies.
