This whole situation couldn't have been handled any more poorly. 2 four legged family members dead over some marijuana and an undercover officer dropped it off!!!

This kinda crap happens all the time though, it just happened to be to a mayor this time. Just legalize marijuana, stop killing and jailing over it and work on REALLY taking care of your community!
