POSTED: 4:43 pm EDT August 12, 2005

WOODLAND, Calif. -- The pictures on Zachary Hicks' missing cell phone cam are more than embarrassing, they've led to his arrest.

Police in Woodland say someone turned in Hicks' lost cell phone.

Investigators reported they found digital snapshots stored in the phone of piles of pot and cash.

Officers searched Hicks home and said they found drugs and money, and another camera phone.

Police said the new cell phone cam has pictures of dope and money, too.

hey you know, this guy is goingto go to court, in his defense, I can hear it now, who gave the cops the right to search through the pictures on the phone. right there it should be dismissed.
I bet he ends up serving time.

yep, he'll get some sort of consequence, even though the police shouldn't have been looking at anything on his cell phone in the first place. a cell phone is private property and should be respected as such, that would be the same as police receiving a lost wallet and then taking the money for themselves...
