Okay, this is why you don't toss out a water bottle filled with your liquid DNA. I was on a traffic stop the other night on the freeway, and guess what I step on as I'm walking back to my car? Yeah, a piss filled water bottle. So the cap blows off and it sprays my boot with someone's processed mountain dew. As you can probably tell I'm seething mad at this point. So I go get an evidence bag and some gloves, empty the rest of the magical juice out, and collect up the bottle. Later I took the lot numbers and bar code off the bottle and called up Aquafina (brand on the bottle). Turns out through the numbers they gave me the name of the distributor who bought that lot. The distributor in turn gave me the name of the store that it was sold to, Pilot Travel Center which is just down the freeway about 50 miles. So, I call up the Pilot, and talk to the manager. He gets me the info for the bar code on the water bottle and I find out when it was sold, oh, and the guy used his debit card. Now, in order to get the debit card info (i.e., owner) I would have to subpoena the bank that the card is through. Luck being on my side, the guy also used his "Pilot Driver Payback" card somewhere in this transaction. This info is owned by Pilot and the manager gladly gives it to me. So now I've got this guys name, personal info, and the company he drives for. Now I'm just waiting on a call back from his company so I can get his phone number to ask him a few questions.
The moral of the story? Don't throw out your nasty piss bottle on the road because a short-tempered cop might step on it and track you down :twisted: . Plus, it's just plain nasty as hell.
