      Its not, the officers testimony about what they saw/smelled however is. Imo officers testimony is too weighty at the moment and should count for less but it is what it is.

      She also fucked up bad by saying it smelled like “alcohol” alcohol is colorless and odorless, she should get slightly more descriptive like a sweet alcohol smell which could be schnapps, brandy etc but alcohol itself cannot be discerned from legal to illegal.
