Woman offered ride in police car arrested after asking if it was okay to bring her weed along

A woman from West Volusia, Florida, is facing drug charges after trying to take marijuana into the patrol car of a sergeant who offered her a ride, according to a sheriff’s report.

The sergeant responded at about 10:40pm on Wednesday to a home near Orange City for a possible domestic dispute and met with Michelle Sanford “who was extremely intoxicated,” the report states. The sergeant determined Sanford had not been struck by her boyfriend, but asked if Sanford had somewhere else she could stay and offered to take her there.



Sanford, 36, brought clothes and an open beer, which the sergeant advised she could not bring. “Why don’t you take your weed with you,” Sanford’s boyfriend, Thomas Laudenslager, 46, said. Sanford said she would and asked the sergeant if she could take her weed and smoke a joint at her father’s house.

Laudenslager then asked Sanford why she would actually say something that could get her sent to jail. “It’s just weed and he might be cool with it,” Sanford said. Sanford, after showing the marijuana to the sergeant, was arrested and charged with possession of paraphernalia and a misdemeanor drug offence.

Geez. It had to be Florida. Why even bother identifying the locale? (Sarcasm.)

Right Lurker111? I came here to say the exact same thing. Even when I first saw there was one comment already, I just knew it was gonna be about Florida.

I read the headline aloud to my husband. Then I said, "Florida." He said, "You're in the wrong state, lady." LOL

Carl Hiassen's books almost write themselves that place is cray cray
