Metro Police knocked on the door of 30-year-old Drew Pate for a #KnockAndTalk (where they don’t have probable cause, but attempt to get consent to search anyway). Pate consented to a search and even told officers where his marijuana was located.

Drew Palmer Pate was booked into custody Thursday on a citation issued in February. The citation details that “Detectives conducted a knock and talk at the listed residence. Individuals at the residence answered the door and agreed to a consent search. The defendant (Pate) told detectives where his marijuana was located. Detectives located the marijuana where the defendant said it was.
