Amazingly Bad Luck

  • Text messages about buying drugs mistakenly sent to a Nebraska state trooper led to the arrest of a 23-year-old man on marijuana possession and other drug charges, police said on Tuesday.

    The Nebraska State Patrol said that one of its troopers started getting text messages last week from a person who was looking to buy drugs. The trooper continued to correspond through text messages until a meeting place was set up.

    The trooper, dressed in civilian clothes, arrived at the agreed upon location and arrested 23-year-old Aaron Sartin of Kearney, Nebraska, police said.He was charged with driving under the influence of drugs, possession of less than an ounce of marijuana, and possession of drug paraphernalia. Additional charges were pending.
Now that's just some bad luck and bad timing all around.

There's a saying in statistics "rare means never". It doesn't matter to me how he got him, but have any of you ever gotten a text message about drugs in a metro area of approx. 5M.?

Yes. Twice in the last five years. One of them, I was able to work with a tact team to make the arrest. Pretty funny when he found out he had sent all his info to a police sergeant.

Yes, Steve/Occupy Chicago or wherever, he did.

He made the choice, and in the real world, adults must take responsibility for their decisions.

If you don't LIKE the law, work to change the law. But, in the meanwhile, it's still the law and he violated it.

I think there's a lot more subtle humor and irony on here than meets the eye. I thought there should be some indicator when the poster is pulling a gag and then I realized the responses are usually funnier than the post.
