What state was this in? We can look up the predicates for that charge in the state, and then be talking more coherently about what might have happened here. Thanks!

I'm guessing North Dakota? That's 3 states away from Chicago on the only Amtrak route from there to Portland.

Were the charges federal? Did North Dakota (or whatever) police intercept him, or a DEA TFG?

What exactly are you trying to accomplish here? We can all see that person's HN comment history, see that fully half of it is drugs; and if this HN subthread is quiet about it, that is because we are politely avoiding confrontation.

I have not looked at their comment history, and the guidelines ask us not to do that.

You can read my comment history. It's right out in the open. Why would guidelines say not to look at it when it's right on the profile? Lol

He got on the train in ND. A drug task force illegally searched his bags and arrested him in Portland. I believe it was all state charges from a state agency working with the DEA. I'd have to ask because I don't remember the details. This was like a decade ago

We're not supposed to dredge things up from people's comment histories to throw at them in discussions.

		FWIW, this seems like the arrest/seizure - doesn't mention heroin and honestly seems pretty sketchy. Aside from a prior arrest for selling weed, using a BS 'hit' from a dog is pretty thin pretext to search the cans. https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/3100482-9-1-16-PPB-M...
