  1. The chick from Salisbury needs to walk. Regardless of the dope she had. A citizen told a cop at a public area that a man was harassing this woman/doper. What has she done wrong to be searched? I know she didn't just say I have pot. She was asked and responded with the truth ,which isn't illegal anymore unless it's in the open. So the cop should not have searched this woman.
