Kop Busters: Why Barry Cooper Is Our New Hero

Due to urgent Dewby Brothers business, Herschel didn't have a chance to fully expound on the story of one Barry Cooper, O.G. KopBuster and Internet folk hero, in his post below, so if you will permit me I would like to explain a bit more about Barry, his show and his mission. Actually, why not hear from Barry, in his own words?

KopBusters rented a house in Odessa, Texas and began growing two small Christmas trees under a grow light similar to those used for growing marijuana. When faced with a suspected marijuana grow, the police usually use illegal FLIR cameras and/or lie on the search warrant affidavit claiming they have probable cause to raid the house. Instead of conducting a proper investigation which usually leads to no probable cause, the Kops lie on the affidavit claiming a confidential informant saw the plants and/or the police could smell marijuana coming from the suspected house.

The trap was set and less than 24 hours later, the Odessa narcotics unit raided the house only to find KopBuster's attorney waiting under a system of complex gadgetry and spy cameras that streamed online to the KopBuster's secret mobile office nearby...

...It is not illegal to grow plants under a light in your home but it is illegal to lie on an affidavit and plant drugs on a citizen. This operation was the first of its kind in the history of America. Police sometimes have other police investigating their crimes but the American court system has never dealt with a group of citizens stinging the police. Will the police file charges on the team who took down the corrupt cops? We will keep you posted.

I think it's clear now why Barry is our new hero. Just take a look at the video of the cops wandering about the "drug" house, looking rather "dazed and confused," if I do say so myself:
