A Richmond police officer is on paid administrative leave after authorities found marijuana at his Oakley home, police said Tuesday.
The department has launched an internal investigation of the officer, said Richmond police Capt. Mark Gagan. The case has employment and criminal implications, and the DA is reviewing our findings, Gagan said.
Gagan declined to identify the officer. A source close to the investigation, however, identified him as K-9 Officer Joe Avila, 43, who has been with the department for about 15 years.

Again - the war on drugs is a SHAM.

(5,122 posts)One of my friend's brother dropped by to hang out at the fire. He was a cop. He asked if anyone had any pot, and no one did. He said he'd be back in ten minutes.
He put his badge on, walked around the campground until he smelled what he was looking for and was back with a bag in ten minutes, just like he said.
