    Odessa Drug Search Ends With a Twist 12/04/2008

    CBS 7 News Staff
    December 4, 2008


    Odessa, TX - Odessa Police served a warrant this afternoon looking for drugs, but instead found themselves the subject of a reality television show.

    It happened around 4:30 this afternoon, when undercover police served a warrant in the 200 block of Lotteman.

    The owner of the home tells us that the police were looking for drugs.

    Their investigation didn't turn up any drugs, but instead several thousand dollars of video surveallance equipment and a number of protesters on site.

    This is a developing story, so tune into CBS 7 News at 10 for the full story.

    Protesters for what? Protesting police officers looking for drugs by giving them false tips to a fake setup? WTH?

    Sounds to me like a group wasting precious time and resources of the police department.

    "Kop Busters" Plants Fake Drug Den 12/4/08

    Odessa, Texas - They didn't find any drugs; instead they found a poster telling them they were on a reality show called "kop busters."

    It's an online reality show that goes around the nation exposing what they say is police corruption. The reason they came to Odessa is because they were asked to by a man who says his daughter is falsely imprisoned.

    Video cameras, plants masquerading, as drugs, and a message are what police found while serving a search warrant today.

    Barry Cooper CEO of Kop Busters.com said: "The best equipment known to man is what Cop Busters has and we're going to continue going across America busting these cops."

    The reality show team out of Austin has been setting up the fake drug den for 6 months, going through painstaking methods to keep it a secret.

    "We had to use encrypted emails, we had to use Wal-Mart blowup cell phones in case our phones were tapped," said Cooper.

    But why all the trouble? “Get Yolanda Madden out of prison," said Cooper.

    In 2005, Odessa woman Yolanda Madden was convicted of the possession of drugs with the intent to distribute. Now she's serving a 7-year prison sentence.

    "I could prove absolutely without a doubt she's innocent," said Raymond Madden

    Her father says he's been trying to get a court to retry the case since the conviction.

    "We had a witness that planted the drugs he testified in court that he planted the drugs," said Madden.

    Cop Busters says the show exists to help fix the system.

    Odessa police say the matter is still under investigation and at this point they are looking to see if any laws were broken.

    We will continue to investigate the Yolanda Madden case and bring you any developments.

    I don't see how they are going to prove someone planted drugs on this lady by setting up a fake drug house. What they are doing seems to have nothing to do with a WITNESS that planted drugs. Go after the witness, not the police.

    I agree that it doesn't make sense but I do find it funny.

    If police planted drugs then yeah, I can see going through with it, but this sounds like a court problem not a police problem.

    Good Find Cag

    From the first Link:
    PostPosted: Thu Dec 04, 2008 6:17 pm Post subject: Barry and Candi bust cops in Odessa!! Reply with quote
    Barry wants me to tell you all that he's sorry he hasn't been able to attend to the forums like he wants to. However he does have some good news with the recent success of his new reality TV show Cop Busters.

    Odessa Texas, The police that Barry once worked with kicked down the door to a fake grow house where their attorney was handcuffed, later to be released.

    Yolanda Madden had drugs planted on her and is currently serving 8 years because of it.

    Barry and crew wore red t-shirts reading "Free Yolanda" in an effort to bring attention to the case.

    They busted the cops by making a fake grow room that pumped out a lot of heat, sent in an anonymous tip, and waited.

    The cops, instead of doing what they should have done, went straight for a search warrant and kicked the door in.

    Welcome to Cop Busters.

    I'm curious, what should the cops of done?

    Sounds to me like someone has an axe to grind with the police.

    They've done something akin to calling in a false alarm to what?

    Catch cops breaking the law?

    Anyone else see the irony?
