Mobile Phones: Empowering Stupid Criminals Everywhere, Part X

Posted by Carlo Longino on 03.01.07 | 2 Comments

Wow, it’s been a while since the last post in this ongoing series, but here’s a good one to get going again.

A 34-year-old middle-school teacher in the US state of Kentucky got arrested after she tried to set up a deal to buy some pot via SMS. The only problem was that she texted a cop (via Engadget) instead of her dealer. The cop set up a “deal” with the lady, then arrested her when she showed up. A state police spokesman, apparently with a good sense of humor, says “She learned her lesson. Program your dealers into your phone.”

If only she could get on that Dutch MVNO for pot smokers
