Man attemps to smuggle oxycodone to jailed wife. (Right next door to that state).

From Alabama - which shares a border with that state.

An Alabama man tried to smuggle Oxycodone to his imprisoned wife by hiding the pills between the patties of a McDonald’s double cheeseburger that he dropped off at the local jail, cops report.

Timothy Lee Thompson’s bid to get two powerful pain pills into the tiny Red Bay city jail was thwarted when a police employee searched the McDonald’s grub and discovered the narcotics.

Pictured below, Thompson, 31, was arrested Friday for promoting prison contraband. He was subsequently freed on $2500 bond after being booked on the felony count.

Thompson’s spouse Ashley--who is facing a theft charge--remains locked up in the jail, which houses up to four inmates, according to Red Bay Police Department Chief Jana Jackson.


Now the jail is requiring any food for inmates dropped off at the jail be sealed. One guy, ruining it for everybody else....

I wonder if he and or his lovely wife regularly partake of the Rush Limbaugh show? Hmmmm.....
