For the Record: Can a Law Enforcement Officer Search Based on Smell of Marijuana?

Managing Partner, Dylan W. Greenwood, discusses whether law enforcement officers have the right to search you, your car, or your home based on the smell of marijuana alone. The SBI sent a directive to all law enforcement agencies and district attorney offices around the state. They cannot differentiate legal hemp from illegal marijuana. It should be impossible for an officer to develop probable cause for searches or arrests based on smell alone.
