Perhaps you are more naive than you think.

Do you think a police officer would really risk his livelihood to attempt this sort of thing?

Think about all of the illegal steps an officer would need to take - from procuring the drugs to falsifying the documents (narrative, etc.) - just to "punish" you.

And what exactly is the payoff?

Yeah, it's completely ridiculous to imagine cops planting drugs.

I don't think anything here, I just watch what happens.

I wouldn't do most of the stuff cops in the US are doing, and without knowing you the slightest I still have some confidence that you wouldn't either.

Yet they do. Not all of them, but some. And that is enough.

I'm just savoring the irony here.
