There's an article on my RSS feed from The Press Democrat that is about a man in possession of heroin. The guy was only pulled over for talking on the cellphone, but it led to the officer searching his car and he found about six pounds of heroin wrapped up. The guy was an immigrant driving without a license, so he will be getting multiple charges.

The man had heroin in his possession, but it was in a car, so he gets another charge for the transportation of it. What if he was just keeping it in his car? I know it seems unlikely, but to say he wasn't is assuming things, not the truth.
