Drugs and Cops

From Drug War Rant:

A man with no prior record, at home with his daughter in the middle of the night. -
Police serve a warrant to the other resident of the duplex, and an officer mistakes Cory's door as part of the other resident and busts in unannounced. -
Cory hears someone enter the house and gets his gun to protect himself and his daughter. In the darkness, shoots at the intruder and kills a cop. -
Cory is on death row in Mississippi.

And this entry:

Officers set up a sting with the help of an informant to buy a pound of marijuana for $3,200. Informant meets with dealer and gives him the money. Dealer leaves the car to go get the pot and... doesn't return. No pot. No money. The cops finally tracked him down and recovered the money and charged him with "theft by unlawful taking."
