PSA: Don't throw your Paraphernalia/DNM Materials in the trash

A friend of mine got a no-knock flash bang raid by DEA/SWAT. On the search warrant they said they went through his trash and found 'evidence of marijuana'... I've heard they do this alot as there is no expectation of privacy for trash? Something along these lines...

anyways all they found is less than an ounce of marijuana - I kid you not... They confiscated phones, guns (legal and very normal to have in this state), and a combined $1500 between the 3 people at the house... Arrested everyone & charged them with possession of less than an ounce (misdemeanor)... Then they tagged on a couple of bogus charges to my friend including Possession of a firearm for a Felon - no one in the house was a Felon...

PS My friend is not a dealer. HOWEVER, he is black in a very white neighborhood. He also has other black friends over at his house all the time

Let's set aside your freshly-made account:

Hhahahaha! I call "bullshit." The DEA and/or SWAT teams are not going through people's trash looking for THC residue on packages. Keep this shit in the Tin-foil Hat Tuesday thread.

I have trouble believing this bullshit as well. But, if no one was prohibited by law from possessing a firearm then this won't hold. But again, I don't believe this. Not at all.

No, OP makes a good point. I know the police go through your trash- trash coming from your known address. Why? Cause its discarded and once its out of your house its, well, considered unwanted trash. I'm not saying they'll do it for fucking minor shit but they can do it. They can do the fuck they want with your trash. This I know from personal experience (not DNM related).

Sounds like he got arrested for being black. Sorry. But yes, put a lock on your trash can and ALWAYS SHRED DOCUMENTS. That way if they open a bag, find a broken bong they can't associate the documents with you. Cross cut is preferred and don't throw it all in the garbage at once, do it over several weeks so they can't piece it together. If your are doing what I think you are doing at the scale you are doing, the house should be a trap house anyways lol.

Yo, next step is to get your community to decriminalize cannabis like mine did.

Remove all shipping labels from any packaging. Burn them. Throw away remaining packaging in random dumpsters.

I was actually going to post this the other day. Because there was a post on reddit that got 40k likes and it showed the police dig through people’s trash in a certain county very regularly . Especially if it’s out near the road
