TODAYS DA OF THE DAY: TRUTH IN ADVERTISING?
We’ve all heard stories about the CREATIVE ways people have tried to hide their drug stash. And then there’s THIS lady.
Cops in Florida pulled over a car on Saturday, when they saw the driver wasn’t wearing a seatbelt. During the traffic stop, they noticed that the passenger was moving things around suspiciously.
The 41-year-old woman was named Lauren Riley. The cops spotted drug paraphernalia, so they launched a full search of the vehicle.
Inside Lauren’s purse, they found a bag labeled, quote, “BAG OF DRUGS.” (???) It contained crack cocaine . . . powdered cocaine . . . crystal meth . . . Xanax pills . . . and other drugs. There was also a needle . . . straws . . . a metal spoon . . . and four glass pipes. So yeah, it was accurately labeled.
Lauren was arrested on a variety of felony charges, and a misdemeanor paraphernalia count. She’s in jail, and her “Bag of Drugs” is being held in a police evidence locker.
