"I Think We're Dead"

This incident happened in 2006. I don't know why it's making the Internet rounds now, except that there's currently a lot of talk about marijuana. But this is just too funny to pass up.

I am also not discussing the legal or political aspects of this case. On April 21st, 2006, a call was placed to 911 seeking assistance for a possible drug overdose. The audio transcript of the call was released under a Freedom of Information request.

It turns out that a Dearborn Michigan police officer removed a small amount of marijuana after a drug bust, and he and his wife baked the pot into brownies, that they subsequently consumed.

After an internal investigation, the officer was allowed to resign, and no charges were filed. Many people, including a Dearborn Michigan councilman raised objections to the fact that there was no prosecution.

A report on the incident and portions of the tape can be heard in the following newscast:
