Wow. That's a dangerous precedent, IMO. I can think of lots of tangents that can go down. Should a first time drug offender have his medical records searched to see if he had sought treatment in the past? If the guy has been using drugs, clearly there is justification to seek his medical records too see if he is really a first time offender or if it is just the first time he got caught. If they have the guy on drug charges, that's evidence of a crime that needs more investigation to see just how far it goes.
