The story i read on this at the time was:. Guy was drunk. But walking home. They offered him a lift. He came back with no wants. So they put him in back to give lift home. Was around christmas. Being drunk he thought he was in trouble. And did not want the gun to be found on him. So he was emptying it. But kept dropping it.

This reminds me of a case I got involved with many years ago.

A trooper in a neighboring state came across an unoccupied but overturned truck. The trooper continued to drive and came across two Mexican nationals.
He told them to get into the squad car. While inside, one of them asked the trooper if they were in trouble. The trooper in turn asked why would he ask that. The response was because of "the drugs in the truck." Turned out there was hundreds of kilo's of cocaine in the truck and they were transporting it.
I got involved because it was being managed and delivered to someone from within our jurisdiction.

Back to the OP. Not "silly police", but more along the lines of "lucky police."

Has to be so hard to be a compassionate cop and be totally safe in some situations. I am weighing on a job in SC out in the sticks, have till June to think on it. Very hard decision when I want to help these near illiterates but think just one of them might not really like me.
Maybe I should just buy a still, lotsa sugar, mason jars and play it safe.
