Intake During Intake
Goleta Valley, CA
Following protocol for incoming inmates, a 44-year-old woman turning herself in to authorities to serve the remainder of her sentence was searched during intake.
The woman had apparently forgotten to remove a small bindle of methamphetamines from her purse, and it was put on a table by authorities. Sheriff’s personnel became alarmed when the woman not yet in handcuffs grabbed the drugs, putting them in her mouth in an attempt to swallow the evidence.
After a brief struggle, jail personnel took the drugs from her mouth before she swallowed.
The subject was additionally charged with possession of a controlled substance.

Well, I give her an A for effort. Bad move though, I mean if you turn yourself in–why take anything with you at all?

Proving again what I’ve always said, that stuff makes you stupid!

I’m not sure as it “making” people stupid, as much as they are already stupid in the first place and the drugs only intesifiy that.
