Drug War Issues
Many of our readers know about the tragic case of Rachel Hoffman, a 23-year-old in Tallahassee, Florida, who was killed by drug dealers after police coerced her into acting as an informant without having access to an attorney. Drug War Chronicle is currently looking for cases, reported or unreported, in which police appear to have committed misconduct or made serious misjudgments in their treatment of informants.
If you can help us find such cases, please email David Borden at [email protected]. We will keep your name and personal information confidential unless you tell us otherwise. If you are uncomfortable sending this information by email, feel free to contact us by phone instead; our office number is (202) 293-8340, and you can speak or leave a message with David Borden or David Guard. Thank you in advance for your help.
Further information on the informant issue, including the Rachel Hoffman case, can be found in our category archive here.

AND THIS STORY IS 100% TRUTH
Police misconduct???
I have a friend who's son was taken into custody by the school first then the police based on the word of some peers who were caught in possession of marijuana. He was thirteen years old when this happened.
Although he has never been caught with any marijuana or other drugs and voluntarily took a hair follicle test that came back negative for any drugs. He has yet to have fifty dollars in cash and his cell phone returned to him. The incidence occurred six months ago.
If this is an interesting story more details and a first hand detailed version can be extended to you by request.
