I lived in a small town, and the cops were convinced that people were selling drugs at the Burger King.

So they had one of the new cops go undercover there for three months, and all they managed to get was some idiots who had a gram of weed (in a medical state) and five vicodin pills. The judge threw it out and warned the town about wasting the court’s time.

He knew he had a lot bigger fish to fry than two kids who stole drugs from their grandmother to get their coworker to stop bothering them about it.

One of my favourite legal principles I don’t see applied enough “de minimis non curat lex”, “the law does not concern itself with trifles”.
