I tell you my real name, if let me go

'I haven't smoked meth in four days'
Kimberly Smith, 18, and James Moore, 21, were a little too talkative with Bay County Sheriff’s deputies Monday.
Deputies arrived at the couple’s Panama City residence to deal with a dispute over money. But as they were settling that problem, Moore told one of the deputies that he smoked meth about four days ago, officials wrote in an incident report.
After that confession, one of the couple’s neighbors accused them of cooking meth around their baby.
“She is crazy,” Moore replied. “I have not smoked meth for four days.”
Smith agreed telling the deputies that she had not smoked meth in “three or four days,” deputies wrote in an incident report.
That was not much of a defense, the deputies decided, and they got permission to search the couple’s residence. They found a bong with marijuana residue, according to the report, and they then asked Smith and Moore if they would agree to a drug test.
Moore said no.
“I will fail the drug test. I will tell you what I will test positive for,” he added.

Man Feeds Young Girls Drug-Laced Ice Cream
Prosecutors say a Kansas City, Mo., man gave sedative-laced ice cream to several young girls and filmed them in pornographic poses while they were unconscious.
James Phillips Edwards was charged Wednesday with advertising, possessing and attempting to distribute child pornography.
Investigators say in court documents that computers seized from the 60-year-old Edwards' home contained pornographic images of at least eight girls. They say one video showed three girls being given drinks and ice cream before they are shown apparently unconscious.
Authorities say all of the girls have been found safe.

Driver downs drink as cops arrest him
James Robinson had one more for the road, police said.
After all, they don’t serve hard liquor in jail.
When police caught the 32-year-old Florence man early Monday driving with an open bottle of Smirnoff Vodka, Robinson finished off the final sips as he was being arrested, police said.
That last drink resulted in an additional charge of tampering with evidence. Robinson is facing charges of operating a motor vehicle while intoxicated and having an open container of alcohol.
Springdale police were called to Ventura Court after getting a call that Robinson was trying to break into his former wife’s home. Robinson had fled in a white Toyota by the time officers arrived, setting in motion a search, police said.
Officers pulled Robinson over down the road, quickly noticing “a strong odor of alcohol on his person and bloodshot, glassy eyes,” according to the arrest report.
Robinson failed a field sobriety test, police said.
That’s when he guzzled down the remaining vodka, police said.
