This case reminds me of one of my arguments in the drug war. All the money and manpower spent on controlling what someone does with their own body means cases like this are over looked. What if, instead of looking for drugs to arrest people for, the community officers job was to check in on elderly people on a regular basis. As a tax payer, I can tell you where i would rather have my money go.
