He was charged with possession and intent to deal, but the article doesn't state if he had meth on him or not. Anymore info on this?

And when the informant looked in the bag, he realized he'd better be halfway across the country in a witness protection program by later that day, because he was busted.

I can see charging him with robbery, assault and battery, but not intent to sell, he intended to sell cheese doodles to a clown.

Even if you sell someone fake drugs to rip them off you still can get hit with "intent to distribute" if they have other evidence of you setting up the deal under the pretense of selling drugs anyway

It's like I forgot the charge. In Maryland it's like fraud sham CDS but fraud in all states but since it's Cheetos idk if that would be worse than just regular fraud but probably since it was sold as drugs.

Not a drug crime. But fraud is a different crime.

TIL It was illegal to possess and sell Cheez Doodles

When the cheeto package explicitly says not for individual resale.

How did he use his vehicle to drug the CI from across the road?

So first he tries to sell the CI some shit, but then gives him a taste on the house?

using his vehicle?

from across the road?

While it's perhaps funny that the criminal gave someone cheese doodles while attempting to rob them, they were, in fact, a criminal, and they did get caught. So I'm not sure this particular example is one demonstrating a failure of policing.

If in fact the police officers had been robbed and the culprit had gotten away, that'd clearly be a failure. But if you try to catch a drug dealer and that drug dealer attempts to rob you and you catch him, you have now caught someone who not only deals drugs but robs their customers - seems like a success to me!

The perp was arrested for "possession with intent to sell". In other words, it seems like he had drugs and was offering to sell them, but in this particular instance he chose to instead attempt theft. The only indication I see of a possible error is that the officers put the confidential informant in danger -- that person presumably didn't sign up to get attacked.

(And obviously there are corrupt officers who make stuff up, so it's always possible that the perp didn't actually have drugs and they were planted on him, etc. etc. But I'm taking the article at face value for the sake of argument.)
