It's Memorial Day, which means its time for illegal law enforcement checkpoints on the Guadalupe and Comal Rivers in New Braunfels and Comal County. Over the past several years, my office has filed several suppression motions in Possession of Marjuana cases dealing with illegal police checkpoints on the Guadalupe and Comal Rivers.
A "checkpoint" is a fixed place where law enforcement stops everyone, or people at random, without reasonable suspicion or probable cause to believe the person stopped is committing a crime.
