Florida man calls police to verify his meth is authentic, cops claim
S E E D E D C O N T E N T
Most drug users tend to keep their dealings under wraps, but one Florida man was arrested after allegedly calling police to check the authenticity of his methamphetamine.
In a Facebook post from the Hernando County Sheriff's Office, authorities claim Spring Hill, Fla., resident Thomas Eugene Colucci dialled 9-1-1 to “ test the methamphetamine ” he had recently purchased.
Colucci told dispatched officers he purchased the drugs from a male person at a local bar. After using the drug, Colucci believed he had been sold bath salts instead of meth.
The report goes on to state Colucci allegedly told officers as an "experienced drug user" who has used methamphetamine prior, he "knew what it should feel like."
The Florida man even produced two dime bags containing a white crystal-like substance, which he handed over to the deputy, the report claims.
Telling officers that he did not want other drug users to purchase "fake" methamphetamine, Colucci asked to have his drugs tested for authenticity.
Deputies arrested Colucci at the scene.
Officers did eventually test the two baggies surrendered by Colucci, both of which tested positive for methamphetamine.
The Hernando County Sheriff's Office charged Colucci with possession of methamphetamine, possession of drug paraphernalia (two counts) and set his bond to USD$7,000.
In the statement, the Hernando Country Sheriff's Office wrote: "If you, or someone you know, have doubts about the authenticity of any illegal narcotics you have on-hand or have obtained from another person, the Hernando County Sheriff’s Office is pleased to provide this service, FREE of charge."

We really do have some dumb asses in Florida. LOL difficult to believe this level a stupidity.
They are everywhere Kavika..
The other week my neighbours received an anonymous letter thinking they were drug dealers...who ever wrote it got the wrong street number....
Basically accusing them of short changing people on the amount of drugs sold...
Quote....you are short changing on the drugs you are selling and giving us good drug dealers a bad name....
We killed ourselves laughing and they took the letter to the cops...first thing they said at least there weren't any spelling mistakes...
LOL, stupid rules the day with that group of dumb asses.
Googling “Florida Man . . .” Always leads to fun stories.
Yeah that was my favourite line too. Someone at the Sheriffs office has a good sense of humour;
Just had to double check and make sure it wasn't April fools day...
Can’t fix stupid.
Obviously covid missed this guy or even the virus has standards...
Sure you can,
although this particular person seems unwilling to put in the required effort
Nah, you can’t .... not really. You can try but true stupidity can not be fixed.
Period.
That’s what natural selection is for .....
Some years ago, I was watching Worlds Dumbest Criminals. During a jury trial the victim was asked if the people that robbed him were in the court room. One of the two defendants raised is hand saying "Here" His attorney gave him one of these
