Cops searched man's anus along road - and never found the pot

South Hampton, NJ - A bodycam video newly made public shows New Jersey state troopers repeatedly shoving their hands down a driver's pants alongside a Burlington County Road - apparently feeling his genitals and his anus, searching for marijuana after saying he reeked of pot.

But even after multiple searches, the troopers found no marijuana and sent him on his way with only a tailgating ticket. They say on the video repeatedly the car he was driving doesn't smell of pot, and they don't find any in the troop car where the driver sat handcuffed.

"If you think this is the worst thing I'm going to do to you right now, you have another think coming my friend," one of the troopers, identified on the video as Joseph Drew, tells the driver as he appears to search the driver's pockets and outside of his pants.

The video was first published by open government advocate John Paff. He came across the case through happenstance - filing random public records requests, as he does across the state.
