They could say it's probable cause. It's not like Henry's never been in trouble with the law before and he's been known to hang out with some unsavory characters. Cops go by his place on a routine patrol, they see a car that is unfamiliar, they run the plates and, surprise, surprise, the car is stolen. Seems like their hunch was right on.
Yes.
We'll burn that bridge when we get to it.
Rental cars usually have a sticker on them, don't they?
An out of state rental car might be considered unusual, I would think, especially one from so far away.

I don't think so. When I rented a van while I was on vacation recently, it had Illinois plates.
No it really isn't. I go out to colorado every winter and we rent a car. You get rentals from Utah, Wyoming, California, etc. It almost seems like we very rarely get one with a Colorado liscens plate. I have a feeling that the police don't want the bad pub with this case and nothing will happen of significance.
Actually, I don't think they do any more. IIRC, they were being targeted for crime.
At least that's what the guy at National told me.

Some do have a sticker, that is easy to peel off.
Go Gators!

Hanging around Chris Henry in a guaranteed collar for any law enforcement officer.
I say nail this idiot. No need to investigate. It's just a typical Chris Henry offense.
Like when he failed that drug test

Like when he beat up those kids

The guy is a 'lowlife'. Even the prosecutor says so.

Honestly, it would take a pattern of false accusations to convince me that the police were trying to nail this guy in any way possible. If that were the case, I might be skeptical until all the facts came out.
That's pretty funny.
When all is said and done more is said than done.
I'm shocked
I find it peculiar... Already semi truck size holes in this story.
Cedric 3/24/08It's absolutely pathetic that people can't have an opinion from actually watching games and supplementing that with stats. If you voice an opinion that doesn't fit into a black/white box you will get completely misrepresented and basically called a tobacco chewing traditionalist...
He had to drive. Odell ain't got a license no mo!

I guess I don't understand why this is a big deal. A beat cop notices a car that is out of place in the driveway of a citizen who's had plenty of interactions with the police. It's reasonable to assume the officer actually had an idea of which cars were "regulars" and which wern't. There's no issue with running the plates as they are issued by the state and are available for the entire world to see (not saying this is an exact legal explination, but rather just my opinion).
As is often the case there's likely more to this case that what has been reported. But I take no issue with the police based on the details presented thus far.
