US student tries to score dope at cop shop
2006-02-16
A 20-year-old North Dakota State University student has been arrested for "criminal attempt and possession of drug paraphernalia" after trying to score some marijuana at a West Fargo police station, In-Forum News reports. Grace Sium rang the cop shop at 3.15am last Saturday enquiring as to where she might acquire some blow. Despite the dispatcher's repeated protestations that "selling and possessing marijuana was illegal", Sium persisted. Accordingly, the dispatcher admitted the cops had puff in the witness locker, and said if Sium swung by they would "hook her up".
Grace is not a physics major.
Officer Ken Zeeb - who arrived for work at 3.45am - recalled: "The dispatcher got on the intercom and said, 'You know what? She's here. She just handed me $3 for marijuana'." Zeeb quickly moved to cuff the master criminal, and later explained: "She didn't seem like she was really under the influence of drugs or alcohol. She understood what was going on and articulated herself well."
"This is your brain on drugs. Any questions?"
Zeeb, who has worked narcotics for over seven years and "and has arrested people for trying to buy drugs at a house as it was being searched by police", admitted the bust was "about the craziest thing I've ever come across". He rightly concluded: "This is something that you couldn't even make up." Sium is now languishing in Cass County Jail. She declined to respond to a phone message left for her on Saturday.
"Like dude, what am I supposed to say, ya know?"

#12  I think all the energy expended in growing that hair has robbed her brain of nutrients.

Not to mention the physical exhaustion from signing her name.

Alrighty then, more information that sheds light on our intrepid heroines antics.

Her name is "Grace (Tzega Ogbazhi) Sium"! And it seems she ain't from these parts. It might be perfectly acceptable in her homeland to attempt to buy pot from the cops, for $3!

Heh, heh!

#6  Did she catch a glimpse of the shutter gun? Did she take the NDRAB out to look for her stash at 4 am?

#5  I remember one police officer with an amazing record of drug busts. He would show up at the door of an apartment after a party noise complaint, knock on the door, and when they answered asked if he could buy some drugs.

Invariably, they would ask him if he was a cop.

He would reply "Yes".

They would laugh and go get him drugs.

The punchline: He did it in uniform!

As a second punchline, I suppose, his department eventually made him stop using his technique. I guess their rationale was that it was like hunting in a baited field.

#3  Some years back we had a woman show up at the Montgomery Alabama Police Department to swear out a warrant against her boyfriend who stole her crack cocaine.

Busted them both. (When the cops stopped laughing)
