▀ (Stanton, TX)
SWAT NABBED A slinger for pushing a truckload of dope.
The task force busted down his door on East Broadway and Florence and laid claim to the supplier’s inventory of meth, cocaine, and fentanyl.
The drugs were in the presence of other adults and even a teen.
▀ Fictionista (St. Tammany Parish, LA)
A man was pocked up and he allegedly tried to dupe cops into thinking he was someone else.
The July 22 traffic stop involved a driver behind the wheel of a purple Nissan Maxima wheeling along Highway 190 West.
The conversation started with the driver claiming he was “Nick Ambo”.
There was also a passenger and a small tot.
Ambo quickly decided to make a break for it and he fled on foot.
The coppers scooped him up two blocks away and determined his name wasn’t Nick Ambo — but 35-year-old Anthony Batiste who had an open warrant.
The ride was searched and decorating the cop cruiser’s hood was a baggie with 57 grams of methamphetamine, anothe rwith 3.8 grams of cocaine, and a 32 grams of marijuana sack along with drug paraphernalia, a pistol, and a social security card belonging to Anthony Batiste.

▀ I 27F got a call from state police calling me to be reference for an ex bf 27M who cheated on me with an officer he was training. Do I silently give no reference by never allowing them to get in contact with me or do I tell them the truth?
HelloKalder: This same exact scenario happened with one of my friends. Ex bf had her as a reference, left one cop job to find another, the new PD called her for a character reference and she (truthfully) blasted him and told them how terrible of a person he was. He didn’t get the job and was also blacklisted from their department (he didn’t have other shining references either). She definitely needs to tell them. She would be preventing a lot of people from having poor, unequal power dynamic interactions with him.
JadieJang: Tell them if you feel safe doing so. It's really important that this guy not get any MORE authority over people than he already has.
NDaveT: If it were me I would let them know that he had a romantic relationship with someone he was training. Ideally people like that shouldn't be cops.
MrLizardBusiness (responding to^): Right. And he still put her down as a reference, so she should give an honest reference.
snickelo: The way she worded it makes it sound like he didn't so much list her as a reference but just a previous relationship. Do state police interview prior partners to get an actual assessment of applicants' character before hiring them for a position known for rampant abuse of authority? Cause if so I love that and all law enforcement agencies should do it. But I guess then we'd have like.....no cops.
scientist_tz: I don’t know about state police but when I applied for a government security clearance years ago I had to give them my previous addresses over the previous 10 years AND the names and contact information for people who knew me at each address. I was putting friends and roommates in that document. For police I am thinking maybe it’s not that deep but it’s probably deeper than “hey tell us three people who can vouch for you.”
Old_Implement_1997: My dad’s wife had to get the equivalent of a top secret clearance when she worked as a machinist for the DOE (after she retired she told us that she worked on some of the space shuttle parts) and they talked to practically everyone who knew her OR my dad.
ninjette847: I got called about my brother's previous roommate who I don't think I ever had a full conversation with. No clue why, maybe because I'm a lawyer and easy to find, they called my work phone.
Mauinfinity-0805: Is this in America? Seems like it's easier to become president then it is to become a cop.
One-Two3214: Yeah, where I’m from (Texas) some places actually lowered the requirements to become a cop. Now you only need a high school diploma or GED/equivalent. It’s super easy to become a cop.
iKnowItsTwisted: It's so easy to become a cop here, depending upon the state you don't even need a clean criminal record. As for education, you just need a GED/high school diploma. We don't even require cops to know the law and our supreme court decided that they aren't legally required to protect civilians! Shit's bleak here.
UpOnZeeTail: State police usually have a higher level background check similar to federal government clearances. They will check previous relationships, people the candidate has lived with, and immediate family members in addition to formal references. The standard of performance is usually higher. They do more in-depth background checks than municipal police.
Vilnius_Nastavnik: Can confirm, I worked a state government job and the state police were responsible for my background check. They called a bunch of people including a few wild cards I didn’t actively disclose to them like old college professors. I think they like to get a broad sampling of your behavior in the community.
Wardstyle: Former PO and trainer here. Absolutely report his romantic relationship with his trainee. That is a huge integrity issue. Who knows what he may do in the future if given access to more female recruits. Did his old job ever find out? Sorry you went through that.
Accomplished-Shoe109 (responding to^): So it’s interesting because as soon as I found out about it I cut all ties, so I am unaware of the exact dynamics to follow. What I am aware of (per other officers girlfriends from the same department) is that they are fully in a romantic relationship now at current. So, considering they both work for the same department and are openly in a relationship, I assume that this previous job definitely knows but I am not sure anybody knows any specific details. 🤷🏼♀️

⬛ DOPE PICS
▀ nothing beats oxy a blunt and a soda
MikeyMorgan12: oxy and xans have me drooling and euphroic af love this combo right here
ripkoikio: last time i did this combo i kept waking up with my face in my mechanical keyboard then sitting back up only to end up face first in my keyboard again
wishesandhopes: Be careful, you can die if you overdo it on that combo.
leosdoitbest: Yeah last time I did this combo I woke up in the ambulance after 3 narcans 5/15/2023
Undergr6und: Imo benzos take away some of the euphoria I’ve heard it from alot of ppl too
Dane1211: Stopped smoking blunts last year, but I do miss em every now and then
beefpilaf47: toss me a xan. lol
t0ny_bender: You can keep the blunt just give me the oxy and the flats 🥶
eco2k (responding to^): the other way around! fuck them pills let me face this blunt tho
t0ny_bender: I can’t lie I’d burn the blunt down too that weed looks like some fire 🔥
Many_Maximum_9060: How do you feel about the new pink 10s and the green 15s that have the slit in em ?
215aPhillyiated (responding to^): So much easier to split, not like it was hard with the other ones but these are much easier
Many_Maximum_9060: Agreed, I haven’t seen any grey 20s in a while usually my boy gets scripts of ALG’ 15s k8 and k9’s and A51 blues no pressed ones either all from the pharmacy been breaking scripts down for like a decade now it’s starting to get harder to find em several of my plugs got cut off stopped getting em through pain management and a couple other ones died shits rough out here lol.
paulglo: get a pill spliter at the pharmacy
Civil-Sound9808: they’re nice I think they’re a tiny bit smaller which is cool if you snort them but i just eat oxys so it’s all the same to me tbh
waiting_with_lou: Coffee and a cig are a god tier combo but I can't argue with blunt + oxy/bar/valium + a nice soda. People go to such lengths for lean but you may as well just take a low end dose of hydro or oxy and maybe add some promethazine if you really want to try and replicate the experience. I do enjoy the sizzzurp but even being sober for many years I still think it would take a lot for me to have any noteworthy effect but unfortunately it's super cost prohibitive so I can't even try.
The_Herbalisttt: Fr damn wish i had some o those pinks dawggg. Can't even find a pressed blue that's good around here lmaooo
Pretend_Power7600: Yea I gave up looking for the dirty 30’s. I’ve had so many bunk ass pills ☹️
The_Herbalisttt: Dude we just had some good ones the other day. first ones worth the fuck that I've seen in 2 months now. my buddy does more than me and still didn't seem to think they were good. They blew my mind he gave me a half and it lit me up, could instantly tell they were good as soon as they hit my nose. so I bought one from him. Only one and a half but when I got home after that whole pill I was nodding out for a second . Didn't buy any on the trip up there because I didn't expect them to be good. I quit doing them because of this shit trying to quit kratom now been on it for years, but i can get away with doing some blues one day as long as I don't double back the next day or 2 LMAO. Probably gonna go later I wanted to try again but I'm worried they'll suck. Dude got some beans though so that's really just what I'm going for. It's just been almost a week since we had the good ones.
Pretend_Power7600: That’s cool I quit and now just use 7OH. I couldn’t find a consistent dealer and gave up.
The_Herbalisttt: Felttttt everytime we get some good ones turn around he buys 10 more and they all suck. Do nothing.
Pretend_Power7600 (responding to^): Yup. It sux but 7 actually works although it’s a whole other demon itself ya know.
The_Herbalisttt (responding to^): Yeah man. I would try 7, kinda want to but I don't have the money and I'm not actively looking for it right now. I'm already taking Kratom like I said I've been on that for a while I'm trying to quit! I'm actually at the lowest I've ever been and can say that I'm down to 6 g a day! I tried to drop a half gram the other day and woke up filling some withdrawals I had trouble sleeping but no RLS thank God! So I would never switch to 7...just wanna see what it's about before it gets banned and hopefully not kratom too. I'm trying to quit on my own ffs 🤦♂️ lol I don't want the government to try to force me, fuck them. Shit dude we actually got some good ones! same pills as the other day for sure: I was supposed to get three beans they were only five bucks a pop and two blues but he only had one bean so I didn't think to get 3 blues for same price. 🤦♂️ I should've. Lol Sitting here playing red dead redemption I'm honestly kind of fucked up after doing that last half . Started nodding off typing this lol.
The_Herbalisttt: Nah man i was just excited aint seen any in like 2 months even worth a penny. Makes no sense
HennessyAlc1: coochiiees 💞
ProductOk7175: They don't make k56s with the large slit in the middle like that g
Difficult_Exam_4913: Lol u mean they dont make k56s without the vcuts now. They changed the design a few months ago

▀ Mayday In July (Tomkinsville, KY)
A PLANE LANDED in an open field along Chandler Road.
The aircraft is believed to have suffered engine failure and the pilot, reportedly from Iowa, touched down in the pasture — careful to dodge any homes.
▀ Convict Car Thieves Busted With Meth (Mt. Juliet, TN)
A COUPLE CONVICTED felons can’t break old habits.
The deviants were caught driving a Nissan Sentra stolen out of Nashville on June 30 at the Hermitage Inn on Lebanon Pike.
Cops moved on the car after its license plate reader delivered a hit. The chase ended on Highland Drive and both perps, a woman 39, and a man, 43, were charged.
The cops also plucked meth intended for resale, a pistol, and multiple forms of other peoples’ IDs.
