Is the DPS pulling over any cars that
don't consent to a
search?Department of Public Safety troopers arrested two men Tuesday morning on money laundering charges during a traffic stop on Interstate 40 near here.
Troopers stopped a 2006 Cadillac TDS at 8:30 a.m. traveling westbound on Interstate 40, according to a DPS report. After receiving consent to search the vehicle, troopers found $114,930 in cash secreted in the lining of an ice chest in the back seat of the Cadillac, the report said.
The load is believed to have originated in Detroit and was headed for Tucson, the report said.
Long-time readers from the
tin-foil hat brigade (you know who you are: you think I'm monitoring your thoughts, and I am) will see this as yet another example of the DPS monitoring cars with the mysterious automobile
black box. Not that I'm giving credence to nor discrediting this assertation, but it's kinda kooky that this sort of thing happens all the dang
time along I-40.
