A
75-year-old Louisiana woman has been arrested for allegedly arranging
for drugs to be smuggled to her son in a county jail. Cops charge
that Judy Futch twice delivered Suboxone, an opioid addiction
medication, to an “inmate job site” outside of the Ouachita
Correctional Institute so that inmates could later deliver the
narcotics to her 46-year-old son Derrek. A criminal investigation was
opened last week when deputies discovered Suboxone “at one of the
inmate workers jobs.” When confronted by cops, Futch denied
involvement in any smuggling. When shown photos of her carrying a bag
at the job site, Futch claimed it contained “hamburgers for the
inmates.” Futch subsequently confessed to “buying Suboxone and
bringing it to the job site” at her son’s direction. Futch said
she “has done it approximately two times.” She added that she
paid a total of $300 for fifteen Suboxone pills. She was arrested on
felony conspiracy and narcotics possession charges.

FUN FACT FOR YOU:
Share this with your friends... they'll think you're really smart!
The Tallest Mountain in the World Is Not Mount Everest. Though it is the highest mountain in the world (at 29,029 feet above sea level), it is not the tallest. That distinction goes to Hawaii’s Mauna Kea Volcano, which measures 33,476 feet from its base to its top. It’s a great place to take in views of the night sky thanks to the very dry atmosphere, and a popular spot for both amateur astronomers and snowboarders.

His wife, Jessica, posted hilarious images of the small car inside the Florida home to Facebook on Tuesday morning. "My husband was afraid his car might blow away," she wrote. "And my car is in the garage.” The couple moved the vehicle out of their home after the storm weakened and moved away from Florida.

School
officials say that a 3-foot-long ball python escaped from its cage
inside a Wisconsin high school — and is believed to be hiding out
inside a science lab ventilation system. The snake — a science
teacher’s pet named Kai — is suspected to have busted out of its
cage inside a classroom at Fond du Lac High School sometime during
the Labor Day holiday weekend, principal Matt Steinbarth said
Wednesday. Firefighters in Fond du Lac were unable to track down the
nonvenomous constrictor on Tuesday — the first day of classes for
freshmen at the 2,000-student school — despite using a thermal
imaging camera. The snake’s suspected whereabouts were narrowed
down after school officials consulted two herpetologists and a local
snake expert. the principal said the snake, which is often used by a
science teacher during biology class, shouldn’t be considered a
threat to students. (https://bit.ly/2lxAJSr)
