Police: Woman Looking for Cocaine Dealer Mistakenly Calls Cops
Monday, March 12, 2007
COLBERT, Okla."” A woman looking for a cocaine dealer called a number on her son's cell phone only to discover later that she had phoned a police officer, authorities said.
Ramona Williams, 42, was arrested on a drug complaint, Durant police Lt. Mike Woodruff said. Prosecutors were preparing charges Monday of possession of drugs with intent to distribute, he said.
Woodruff's number was on her son's cell phone because he had been arrested previously on drug charges.
"She was looking through her son's cell phone directory and found my number," Woodruff said. "Her son had told her that if she ever needed help with anything to give me a call. I think she misunderstood.
"She thought she was talking to a drug dealer."
Woodruff said he played along and set up a meeting between her and an undercover officer.
Williams and Tony Whitt, 36, who also allegedly participated in the meeting, were arrested Saturday night.
I love these kinds of articles. They're almost as good as the NRA's Armed Citizen column. A teacher in Tennessee or Kentucky did the same thing as this genius, only buying marijuana with text messages on her own phone a month ago. The LEO recommended people save their dealer's numbers to avoid that kind of problem.
Folks in Durant, OK breath rarified air any way. In 1978-79 i was the M/Sgt. of the Ft. Sill OK Army EOD unit. We got a call that there was a bomb in a dorm at Southeastern State University in Durant. Sent a team down there to take care of it. It was a hoax device. While all the cops in the world were at the college a couple of guys robbed every store in thetownat gunpoint.
Here in Anchorage today a lady called the police upset that someone had stole her 4 prized pot plants for the forth straight year. Cops told her it was it was againts the law, but she didn't care she was so upset as she raised them and cared for them like childeren.

Hasn't the state legislature decriminalized marijuana possession, though? I heard that the state police won't arrest an invididualwith up to an ounce or one plant at a time for personal use as long as they behave themselves. The feds were really ticked off about it, if I remember correctly.
I did a little checking. It seems it was decriminalized, but the legislature tried to recriminalize it a few years ago, at which point the ACLU sued and won its case against the state.

They don't call it dope for nothing...

Don't know. Don't do drugs and don't follow the the laws for them. All I know is I heard it on the radio and thought it was foolish.
Must be illegal as it made the news radio.
Your Mind on Dope!
