More Key West Cowboys: Coke in the Conch Part Two
April 19, 2007
I'm sorry - I know this isn't funny. Crime isnt' supposed to be funny - drugs aren't funny either….But - the drug busts in Old Town ( well - all across town for that matter) always seem to radiate a bit of a comic sheen. Maybe it's me. Or those two years of Criminal Justice classes I took back in college. Either way - as the bumper sticker says - sometimes you just have to say no..:-)
Just say noKEY WEST — Two men in the 400 block of Greene Street about 3:30 a.m. Monday allegedly gave a police officer permission to search them, apparently forgetting they each had a bag of cocaine on them.The officer responded to a report of a "suspicious person" in the area and met Joseph Dewey, 22, and Gerald Palmer, 24, both of Layton. They told the officer they didn't have anything illegal on them when he asked.He then asked if he could search them, reportedly telling them they had the right to refuse, but they didn't. Both men went to jail on charges of possessing cocaine.
