The officers demanded his passcodes, warning him they’d get warrants to search the cellphones. Montanez suspected that police were trying to fish for evidence of illegal activity.

Let sandbox take the initial hit on this and exit the debate. Limit the first smart cards to simple contracts with strict cash limits. Stay out of the battle of long term holdings on the card, at first. Too many gains are being given up the longer we postpone the issue.
