Looking to buy a CLS55/63
So apparently I been driving around for a year with a crack pipe stashed in my car...

Ok so the other day I slightly dropped my lower dash to inspect my intermediate steering shaft and saw the CGW wrapped in a plastic bag and thought it was drugs, I could t figure out how to get the panel all the way off so I buttoned it back up cause I didn't really have much time. Well.......Today I removed the entire panel and out of somewhere in it possibly the AC vent fell this little guy....For those of you that don't know, it's a crack pipe.😐 The previous owner I don't think was a crack head but her brother who was with her when I looked at it the first time was definitely a drug addict.
First of all, let me tell you I'm law enforcement for my occupation and could you imagine if I got stopped and this fell out of a drug dog hit on my car? Who would believe this story??I would be getting arrested for drug paraphernalia and probably lose my job...Now I gotta go thru this car with a fine tooth comb, cause I been driving around for about a year with this **** in there. 😳😳😳

Yep. Be careful. Many years ago I purchased a car and weeks later found weed under the back seat. I somehow doubt the police would believe it was in the car when I bought it and I never knew...

I was a new car dealer tech for my whole career. A tech in our shop got a minivan in for inop a/c. He diag'd an inop blend air door. So he removes the dash (Chrysler) and low and behold a kilo of (later found to be) coke was jammed atop the air handler box, interfering with the door works.
Came to find out, the minivan was bought at a police auction as it was seized from a drug bust.
The police came and picked up the kilo.

Be glad it wasn't meth like Hoovie's Maserati. He thought a cat had peed in the car at first.

I can visualize it right now, with you in handcuffs being placed in the back of a police car.

I got arrested like that for a roach in the ash tray of an rx7 I bought years ago. I don’t smoke that, and hadn’t cleaned the car out. It went to mayors court, and I was very vocal about the my ignorance and innocence towards this particular situation. The arresting officer certainly was out for blood.

He had to be a real ******* to arrest for a roach.

Yes he was. It was 25 years ago or so, when marijuana wasn’t the miracle drug it is now, but I had looked in the ash tray the day before, and it didn’t dawn on me what it was . He pulled me over for no license plate, as I drove 400’ down the service road, from my apartment to my local coffee shop to get my morning coffee.

My fault for no plate ,but I got a trip to the lockup that Sunday morning for drug possession, and I believe the ash tray was a paraphernalia charge as well. I’m no angel when it comes to moving violations, but I don’t smoke weed.

After being rather vocal and angry in the Mayors court, the charges were changed to some lesser non drug charges. I never got my ash tray back, it was taken as evidence. The Mayor was really baffled as to why I wouldn’t just pay the fine for this misdemeanor charge, when I have plenty of other speeding and such tickets on my record. We essentially argued for 10 minutes about this, before I got pretty mad about the fact I don’t take part in this drug, or any others besides alcohol.
I can only imagine your paraphernalia being located by anyone but you, maybe you can get the K9 to assist in a search of the rest of the car.
