After a Florida woman was arrested on several charges during a traffic stop, the authorities allegedly found syringes and a bag of narcotics stashed inside her female private parts as she was being booked.

Last weekend, a deputy from the Flagler County Sheriff’s Office was patrolling when they reported that a pickup truck with what appeared to be the driver’s seat belt was hanging outside the vehicle. When the license plate was checked, the deputy discovered that the one on the truck was registered to a different car, and the registration tag was expired. The deputy turned on the lights and siren and performed a traffic stop. It was estimated that it took approximately 30 seconds for the driver to pull over and stop the truck, and the deputy noted that they believed it was longer than necessary.

When speaking with the deputy, the woman reportedly stated that the truck was registered in her name, but her license plate had fallen off, and she had borrowed one from a friend’s vehicle. She also allegedly said her driver’s license was suspended, and that she didn’t put on her seatbelt because she was in a hurry.

A grandmother who had custody of her two young grandchildren is facing charges after she was accused of physically and emotionally abusing them in multiple ways.

In 2022, a 32-year-old man with two children was shot and killed. According to reports, the youngsters’ mother was unable to properly care for them, so they went to live with their paternal grandmother at her apartment in Warr Acres, Oklahoma. While some of the neighbors reported that the kids appeared happy, someone notified the authorities last March and told them they suspected they were being abused.

A social worker from the Oklahoma Department of Health and Human Services (DHS), accompanied by law enforcement from the Warr Acres Police Department, visited the residence to conduct an investigation. The 8-year-old girl reportedly told the social worker that their grandmother regularly abuses her and her 10-year-old brother, and that the woman both uses and sells narcotics. The child added that she locks them in a cage when she goes out, and it was reported that the boy said the woman gives him pills beforehand.

Just after midnight on April 2, a man from Athens was riding his motorcycle, which was reported as having a concealed license plate, on I-65.
