Serious question - here's a scenario for you...
1. Cop makes stop for traffic violation.
2. Cop smells marijuana.
3. Cop calls K9 unit to do a sniff, dog indicates.
4. Cop searches car.
You've said you don't think the "cop sniff" is enough for PC to search the car, but that the K9 sniff is. Do you think the cop in my scenario has unreasonably extended the traffic stop to call in the K9?
Depends on how long it takes to bring in the K-9. But, most likely yes.
My "cop sniff" position is also biased to due to my feelings that marijuana should be legal. I readily admit that.
