Lady, what were you thinking? It’s already bad enough that you thought going into a place full of cops with contraband was a good idea, but you should have known this was going to happen once you got processed at a county jail. We’ve all seen plenty of movies about prison—the strip search is part of the routine. And this woman, thrown into jail for resisting arrest during a traffic stop, was hiding something underneath, which landed her with another felony charge. The reason she gave when she got busted is unbelievable.
Yes, it’s a Florida story. This is a Florida woman’s saga, where bags of cocaine poured out of her butt. About four grams dropped during processing, and officers knew something was wrong because she kept placing her hand on her backside. When she was finally busted for the narcotics, the woman said it must’ve wound up there during an intimate encounter (via NY Post):
Brevard County Sheriff’s Office deputies arrested Reagan Cox, 30, on Saturday for resisting arrest during a traffic stop. When she arrived at the Brevard County Jail, staff noticed something abnormal with Cox’s “lower region” — or her “jail purse area if you will.”
Corrections deputies escorted Cox to a changing room, where she attempted “to shield” her buttocks with her hand, authorities said.
When staff removed her hand, a baggie dropped to the floor containing 3.8 grams of cocaine.
Cox denied knowing about the cocaine and told deputies that someone must have placed it there during an “intimate encounter,” according to the statement.
She received an additional charge for bringing contraband into a detention facility — and was released from custody the same day.
“Folks, if not realizing that someone left cocaine in your ‘Jail Purse’ is not a good enough reminder to not do drugs, then I don’t know what is!!” clinched the sheriff’s office statement.
You cannot make that story up.
