Police officer took 4 pounds of marijuana home. He won't face charges.

A police officer in Richmond, California, took too much of his work home.

Officer Nebulous Avila picked up four to five pounds of marijuana from a UPS store as part of an investigation in November of last year, The Contra Costa Times reports. But instead of filing a report and taking the evidence to the police station, as required, Avila just took the drugs home.

After an internal investigation questioned him about his missing reports — 37 in all — Avila admitted to keeping the marijuana. "Avila told investigators that he used two pounds of the marijuana to train his police dog in February 2015, and when pressed, he acknowledged there may be more in the trunk of his K-9 patrol car or at his house," The Times reports.

Amazingly, officials at the Richmond Police Department said Avila probably won't be charged with any crime, citing evidence too weak to produce a conviction.

Thoughts?

Yet another cop that broke the law in many ways yet is not treated like a criminal that he is...
