The particular instance in question was being watched because of a suspicion of nefarious (love that word) activity being conducted there - apparently not KNOWLEDGE of such. Subjective nature of that suspicion opens a can of worms that for me would seem to lead to the individual officers judgment being the deciding factor - I think way above their pay grade. Someone going 80 in a 45 or handing money to someone on the street in exchange for a small bag witnessed by the officer eliminates the decision making process for the officer in question.
maybe this will help to understand the convoluted point I am trying to make...
