    Financial considerations are coming into play for jurisdictions such as Ellis County, where the prosecutor’s office is getting so many drug cases that the jail is running well over capacity.

    On a related note, given Kansas' fiscal mismanagement I now do everything possible to avoid their borders. I have no desire to be pulled over for any traffic-related reason just so they can squeeze money out of me. Since I've never smoked pot their drug enforcement laws are irrelevant to me unless a trooper tries to "plant" it on me.
