Deputy sheriffs in Florida were taught a valuable lesson by a man with his face covered in tattoos, who helpfully informed them that "there's nothing wrong with drugs." This, of course, came after they found meth stuffed in his underwear.
According to The New York Post, the man was initially taken into custody for a traffic violation before finding reasons to suspect him of other shenanigans.
Thomas Carpenter, 41, was originally pulled over by deputies for a suspected traffic violation on March 18, but the officers soon discovered evidence of drug use inside his car — with two children and an unidentified woman also inside, the Putnam County Sheriff's Office announced Tuesday.
After arresting the man, deputies made another important discovery.
While performing a physical search at the station, deputies found 11 small, tied sandwich bags filled with a crystal-like substance stuffed into the front of his underwear, according to the sheriff's office.
The substance tested positive as methamphetamine and weighed about 322.1 grams.
Carpenter tried to assure the deputies that 'there's nothing wrong with drugs' while he was at the station.
See, guys? It's totally fine. Everyone keeps meth in their underwear and there's nothing wrong with it.
Surprisingly, his sell job didn't work on the officers, leaving him facing 8 counts of drug-related charges.
Despite his pitch, he was charged with amphetamine trafficking or methamphetamine 14 grams or over, possession of marijuana with intent to sell or deliver, two counts of possession of a controlled substance without a prescription, smuggling contraband into a county detention facility, and three counts of drug paraphernalia.
Don't worry, man. Where you're going, you'll have plenty of opportunities to hide stuff in your underwear.
