From the article,

“(McCue) said he did not observe any sign of impairment at that point. He explained that (Loud) seemed steady on her feet and he could not observe any odor (of alcohol) at that time,” MRI’s report states. Johnson, who was the lead officer, wanted to investigate further."

"...the officers went through her home taking photos of the mess."

They had no apparent reason to detain her. You are saying she was wasted but that is not what the article says. Furthermore, going into someone's home and taking pictures is considered a search.

They didn't search her house. They were inside with her while she was trying to call someone to come watch over her because they thought she way too drunk and when they went allowed inside they were even more concerned because you couldn't even walk around. I dont necessarily agree with the law or the officers' actions- but it is the law we have in this state, and they did not break the law or even the spirit. The misguided officer was worried about this woman's health and safety. He wasn't trying to teach her a lesson. He didnt infringe upon any rights as they are currently laid out. Maybe we should change the law or maybe even defund the police and fund other social programs that might actually help this poor lady. But right now, this is the system we have. Detention and short-term protective custody are all the state does to for the homeless, addicts and the mentally ill.

Right? Though Dartmouth is like super high Asian student body isn’t it?

Off topic: I am still traumatized by when my sisters friend grabbed a little brown ball out of mascoma lake, and then like 5 seconds later my sister saw a diaper floating... we grew up too fast...

Your best bet is Pittsburg but I know many people who didn’t get to spend as much time on the sled as they wanted this year due to poor coverage. But the last few years prior even south western sledding towns like Washington have great trail systems that get groomed on main trails and can have a pretty long season.
