Do leave home without it

I can't say that I know much about what you're supposed to do when you have to visit your probation officer, but I'm pretty damn sure you're not supposed to take your weed with you:
A Dothan [Alabama] man attempting to report to his probation officer and pay some fines was re-arrested when he emptied his pockets for a metal detector at the Houston County Courthouse and laid out more than the usual coins and keys.

Two baggies full of marijuana came out, too, authorities said.

Malcom Williams, 51, tried to escape when the drugs appeared Thursday, but he was caught after a minor struggle and a failed attempt to Taser him, sheriff's officers said.

"He reached into his pocket and pulled out a handful with change, U.S. currency, keys, and the marijuana was evident in his hand," Houston County Sheriff's Capt. Antonio Gonzalez said Friday. "Every now and then you have somebody who forgets what he had in his pockets."
Hmmmm...what could have possibly made the guy forget that he had he had two bags of weed in his pockets? Oh, right.
