Shortly before midnight on November 10th a Riverside Police Officer was parked on West Platte Road and NW Business Park using radar to check for speed violations when a black, 2011 Audi A8 registered a speed of 48 mph in a 35 mph zone.  The police officer, in a marked police car, subsequently stopped the car on West Platte Road at Riverside Street.

While questioning the driver the Officer detected a strong odor of marijuana from inside of the vehicle.  The officer then requested the driver and two passengers to get out of the vehicle.  Once out of the vehicle the Officer explained to the driver, who owned the vehicle, that he was a K-9 Officer and that the dog would alert to an illegal substance.  Subsequently, inside of a black bag the officer discovered the wallet of the driver and vehicle owner,   Dwayne L. Bowe, and two containers that had 6.6 grams and 3.8 grams respectively of what is believed to be marijuana in them.  Bowe was then placed under arrest for the possession of a controlled substance.  The K-9 alerted to a black backpack and inside of that was found a container that had 4.2 grams of what is believed to be marijuana in it.

One of the passengers, George A. Thompson, said the backpack belonged to him.  Subsequent to his arrest for possession of a controlled substance, Thompson was searched and on his person two hand rolled cigarettes, containing what is believed to be 2.2 grams of marijuana were also found.

Bowe and Thompson were both transported to the Riverside Police Department for booking on the following municipal charges:  Bowe for speeding and possession of a controlled substance with a bond of $750; Thompson for the possession of a controlled substance with a bond of $500.  The third passenger in the car, who was not charged, posted bond for both men and they were released with a court date of December 18, 2013.

He's already served a four game suspension as an NFL player.  I'm not sure if those strikes reset. 

If he was caught and arrested for having weed, the league should suspend him.

After the officer stopped Bowe, the wide receiver asked the officer whether the nearby Sonic was open then.

they're not until the legal precedings are finished. why do you think Aldon Smith hasn't been suspended yet?

The CBA doesn't allow it.

Also, he got suspended for performance enhancing drugs when he got suspended. Doesn't fall under the league's substance punishment.

Let's suspend one guy for being a bully, but not the other for driving around with drugs in his car.

Protect the shield, babbie.

That's different actually. The team suspended Incognito. Not the league. And you can be sure he's gonna sue because he's not getting paid (the max you can suspend under those grounds is 4 games) and it's a slippery slope when it comes to team suspensions.

The teams will always play guys with pending court cases, and rightfully so because you never really know the facts and the appropriate punishment (especially from the league's position) until things are actually settled.  Maybe it was his buddy's, maybe the charges get dropped because of improper police protocol, etc.

Besides, teams will never voluntarily suspend their high paid guys except in a case like Incognito's where it has tangible ramifications to the team. It's why Braylon played, Alfonso Dernard, Aldon Smith,etc.

Not quite the same as the rest of this thread, but Sam Hurd got 15 years.

put him in a cell with Sandusky.

So he could rape Sandusky? Pretty sure I know which of the two would have the upper hand.

Sandusky's hands would be in Dennard's pants.
