Missouri Police Are At It Again

Already, problems with the investigation into ten month old Lisa Irwin's disappearance have started. Someone on the police force has given the press the "information" that Lisa's parents are no longer cooperating with police. Well......well. Not a word about how they've run afoul of the local law enforcement, just "not cooperating". What happened, did the parents call in a private investigator? Did they get polygraphed privately? Did they get someone with better trained SAR dogs to assist in the search? Did they just get tired and need rest? You didn't say, Missouri Police. Also, is it possible that the baby was taken by someone to whom you cannot stand up? Some criminal whose attorney mops the courtroom floor with you every time you meet him in court? Or do you suspect that someone politically well connected may be doing some unlawful things involving human trafficking, and perhaps it is easier to blame the parents and close the case, instead of actually doing the right thing? Could any of those things be the case, Missouri Police? I still have not forgotton the time you tried to tell my nephew he had drugs when he really had basil and oregano!

I understand there was a tip called in about Lisa Irwin possibly having been sighted in a truck stop in St. Joseph. I am glad they shared the surveillance with you, and I hope you look at it closely. One can pick up a highway to just about anywhere in this country from St. Joseph, Mo., and every tip must be scrutinized until Lisa is found. All of this blaming and flaming of Lisa's parents is just discouraging the general public from calling in tips, even if someone happens to stare this baby right in the face; and detracting from efforts to actually find Lisa Irwin. I honestly don't care how many cell phones Lisa's parents had, or how many they lost.  Cell phones get lost and found at my house on a regular basis. I even found a neighbor's cell phone in my front yard once. I also don't care who doesn't understand how an electrician can work at night..........they get emergency calls once in a while. I know this for a fact because my husband has gone on emergency calls. If the parents have done something wrong or are responsible in some way for all of this, we can roast them in the news and on the internet later. Lets find this missing baby.

Tutorial For Missouri Police

After my nephew's arrest in Missouri yesterday, already discussed on this blog, for NON-POSSESION of marijuana, or any other illegal substances, I thought it might be helpful to all of the Barney Fife's in Missouri to study this tutorial concerning marijuana and common spices, that one might find in spaghetti or pizza sauce.  Law Enforcement in Harrison County, pay special attention.

Oregano looks like this:

Basil looks like this:
 And sometimes like this:


and it never, ever contains LSD, as you told my nephew. Also, oregano and basil will always test negative for THC. The fact that you guys were stupid enough to make those accusations last night is amazing. I am sorry that you are on the taxpayors' payroll, because you are a waste of money.

Now; marijuana looks like this:

 It also does not smell like pizza, spaghetti, ravioli, or tomato soup. The spices for which you apprehended my nephew were fresh and whole, and the above pics are the actual plants from which I picked the leaves. You should have been smart enough to discern the difference. Do you know where I got the cuttings from in order to grow them? Walmart, Home Depo, and my childrens' school. No joke. If my nephew decides to hold you accountable for last night's false arrest, false inprisonment, and illegal search and seizure, testifying and providing actual samples for any court proceedings will not be a problem for me.

Would you like some recipes for spaghetti sauce, pizza sauce, and beef stew?

And The Barney Fife Award Goes To..................................

I was going to award this month's Barney Fife award to the police in Linn County, Kansas, for making a drug bust with no actual arrests, but a last minute contender threw it's hat in the ring.

My nephew, James, from Minnesota, visited us in Kansas for a couple of days. Yesterday, he left, at around 2:30 in the afternoon. Before he left, I put some fresh oregano and basil from my garden and some dried oregano in a paper bag for him to take to his mother, my sister-in-law. I have several gardens, and I usually trade herbs and produce with friends and neighbors. I also bake pies and cookies, and I am known for the best potato skins in town. I also make the best meatloaf in this part of Kansas.

While driving through Harrison, Missouri, my nephew got pulled over for speeding. James thought it was only going to be a matter of signing the ticket and leaving, which it should have been. But no! The police wanted to search James's car. James said "no", which is the only appropriate answer to give any government official wanting access to one's home, car, or person without a warrent signed by a judge. Then, the Missouri police decided that James's refusal to allow illegal search and seizure was probable cause.......for something......but nothing specific, you understand.  The handcuffed him, mirandaized him, and put him in the back of the paddy wagon, and made him wait for drug dogs! And when the drug dogs got there, one of them pulled the bag of oregano and basil out of the car in it's mouth! The police insisted that it was.........drum roll.........guess, people, guess..........marijuana! Poor James tried to tell them what it was, but they moved on to searching his trunk, removing his removing parts of his engine, going through his cell phone data, and demanding to know where he got these "drugs"!

Just a word about oregano and basil; they both have very distinctive smells, and both will remind one of pizza or spaghetti.

When James stuck to his story about his aunt giving him oregano and basil to take back to his mother in Minnesota, they "field tested" the basil, which, they told James, was positve for LSD. (where the HELL is the eye-rolley when I need it?) The oregano was too, but to a lesser degree. When they got back to the station, James was still sticking with the basil and oregano story, because honesty really IS the best policy, even when the cops are pricks, and they confiscated the oregano and basil I tried to send to my sister-in-law and cut him loose. If they had really found LSD in the basil, would they have turned him loose? Is there really a field test for LSD on basil leaves? I doubt it. But if they find anything at all illegal about my basil, which I started from cuttings I bought at Walmart, btw, they're gonna descend on James in Minnesota. They told him so. They also kept the oregano and basil as evidence. And one cop still believes the oregano is actually pot.

So.........I'm kinda leaning toward the Harrison County, Missouri cops as the winners of this month's Barney Fife Award. They worked hard for it. The good people of Missouri can rest easy, knowing that no delicious spices will cross their borders unapprehended.

Hey! Missouri Police! Get your heads out of your asses!
