I don't know if they already do, but someone with an extreme amount of knowledge, should offer seminars on what is, and is not allowed and what is and is not probable cause, etc. The same people should be training officers as well.
In my opinion, right, wrong, or indifferent, his refusal to let the officer search the car, worked against him. My only point of reference is Live PD, Cops, etc. but I've seen enough examples to know that is the critical turning point.
