Default Bad Vette Driver

A colleague sent this to me with a quote "I thought this was really funny because I know you drive a red corvette "

Thought I would share:

Cops find drugs in car, along with fake ***** and bladder

By THE NEWS-PRESS STAFF
Published by news-press.com on March 15, 2005

A Deep Creek man faces drug charges after deputies pulled over his Corvette and found drugs ? as well as a fake ***** and bladder in the trunk, the Charlotte County Sheriff's office reported.

Jeffery Neal Thompson, 42, of 2225 Yeoman Court reportedly told officers the contraption, which was attached to an elastic belt, is for urine tests. He was on probation for drug use and had two days left of his probation to complete, according to the sheriff's office.

An officer went looking for Thompson's red Corvette around 9:25 p.m. Monday after deputies received complaints about the car's driver running people off the road in the area of Peachland and Vertan's boulevards in Port Charlotte. When the deputy made a traffic stop, he smelled burnt marijuana, according to a sheriff's report.

After a search, officers found a marijuana pipe in Thompson's pants, 7-grams of marijuana in the driver side door, and 25 valium pills in the center console, sheriff's officials said.

Thompson is charged with felony possession of a controlled substance, misdemeanor possession of marijuana, possession of drug paraphernalia and resisting arrest without violence. He was taken to the Charlotte County jail with bail set at $4,000.
