The mix-up "sounds more like a storyline from one of the 1980’s Police Academy comedies than what should be expected in a high-profile prosecution,” Biden's attorney wrote.

The mix-up "sounds more like a storyline from one of the 1980’s Police Academy comedies than what should be expected in a high-profile prosecution,” Biden’s attorney wrote.

Federal prosecutors mistakenly claimed in a court filing that a photo of sawdust they found while searching Hunter Biden’s electronics was cocaine, attorneys for the president’s son said Tuesday.

The sawdust picture was used in a court filing detailing incriminating information that prosecutors said they turned up while executing a search warrant of Biden’s laptop and electronics, but his legal team said in court papers that the picture was sent to their client by his then-psychiatrist as inspiration.

The picture shows three lines of yellow dust on a piece of wood near some other dust. The psychiatrist sent the picture to Biden in 2018, saying it was "lines of sawdust sent to me by a master carpenter who was a coke addict.”

Biden’s attorneys said the message and picture were “meant to convey that Mr. Biden, too, could overcome any addiction” and used the apparent mix-up to mock prosecutors.

    It didn’t sound like they were falsifying anything. It sounded like the person in OP’s story just had a bag of coke in their car.

      They start that process over hostess powdered donuts. just to piss the rich fuck off. Ended up citing him for the proximity alarm and left it at that, but not before they searched his car.

      (who the fuck drives a jag and then has powdered sugar donuts in it? Ew. that shit gets everywhere.)

      Oh there was clear understanding that they were definitely hostess donuts of the powdered sugar variety.

      It was a joke on my part and not a serious report. The cops ran with it, because these cops definitely were bastards, and because the idiot Jag owner went full on Karen over something that was ultimately his own fault. (If he had a legal alarm system, if he paid for parking, or he had a shred of self awareness and just called for a jump…)

      Cops pull that kind of shit all the fucking time and get away with it because their victims don’t have the resources or contacts to get away with reporting them.
