Friendswood police take a traffic ticket a bit too far.

I would not jump to conclusions, all we hear is her side. I am very pleased with Friendswood PD, due to their efforts we have the lowest crime in the area. Read their crime blotter every week and it will give you a better appreciation for their work.

thats funny. friendswood is full of rich white people. i think its about 98% white ofcourse it has low crime.ive lived there for 33 years and yes the friendswood police take anything too far for anything more then a minor traffic stop.its too bad they cant get the underage drinking under control but that would mean arresting all of the parents for buying their kids the alcohol.lol

Good stereotype but I would hardly say it is full of rich white people (well, 90% are white but not all are rich). Drive through some of the older subdivisions and you will see that not everyone is rich. Yes, the median income is higher than a lot of surrounding areas but there is some relatively cheap real estate and taxes are actually lower than many surrounding areas so it is by no means and exclusive area where the poor cannot live.
I guess you can never please everyone, I do not see them ignoring underage drinking, I see crime blotter reports on a regular basis of underage drinkers they catch. I moved to Friendswood for a reason and I choose to live here now due to the great job the Police do.

Jail time... for minor traffic violations.....what? This is all very strange. I am not saying she is lying, just that something strange is going on.

Meth/crack head turned CI gone wrong is all this is.

The police didn't make her do anything. She made the choice to be a snitch and got scared.

Wonder how much she has stolen to support her habit?

Well, that, plus possession of a controlled substance and drug paraphenalia. Now her lawyer says she has rx for the drugs. IDK. Seems if I has a rx I would fight the drug charge instead of agreeing to do CI work to avoid a trial. That's me. Maybe avoidng a trial was important to her for some reason.

The story alleges she had a prescription for the Suboxone, so maybe she could possess the glass pipe legally (to legally use her prescription). However, Suboxone is a narcotic generally used in the treatment of opioid dependence, which implies she is an addict.

Edit: however, in reading about it online, it looks like the Suboxone comes in a tablet, and is probably not intended to be smoked.

The glass pipe is very questionable but the script, not necessarily. A fair number or people now get methadone for use as a pain med so the reason for her script isn't certain.

I am not up to date on my knowledge of pain pills. The most I take, even after childbirth is usually 800 mg ibuprofen. So you could tell me it is banana fanna [abbreviated profanity deleted] fanna for the banana disease and I would not be knowledgable to comment on legality/use. On the other side of that, never consent to a search ever. Why don't people learn that. If they don't have probable cause don't give them it.

If she got convicted of possessing drug paraphenalia she could lose her CHL.
