Good Job!! Thank you for cleaning up our streets and trying to help keep as much of this "nonsense" away from our youth as possible. KUDDOS to all involved, another fine job by Worcester County Sheriff's Office!
If it weren't illegal to possess and distribute objects (things), then what would the police do with their time?
10:55 another moron. Go live somehwere else where there is anarchy and see who protects your civil liberties and rights. Get the F outta here if you don't like it!
Okay so now the various LE agencies involved have done their jobs, now the question is what will the courts do? I'm guessing not much and Tyrone's name will be back on case search for something else before years end.
10:28 How much do I hate cocain, how much you ever smoked in a straight session? Cocain ruins lives, the only thing worse is meth and H. What the heck do you know about anything.
Well geez. I thought we were free in America. As long as we don't harm others, I thought we could do pretty much whatever we wanted to do.
I guess I was wrong. I also see here that most commenters don't even want to be free.
Please oh mr government man tell me what I can eat or drink or smoke. Please tell me how to live my life. And spank me if I mess up.
2:34 it is COCAINE not Cocain MORON! Matbe if you stopped smoking that $hit you could spell better.
3:23 They harming others by selling it to them and possibly selling it to those that were not otherwise exposed. Again, smoke what you want but don't blame me if you can't the forest for the trees.
