Text Message Error Leads To Pot Bust
 

Police in Murray, Kentucky, say that a middle school teacher who was trying to buy marijuana was arrested after she mistakenly text-messaged a state trooper instead of a dealer.

Trooper Trevor Pervine was eating dinner with his wife and parents to celebrate a birthday when his cell phone started buzzing with messages about a pot purchase.

Initially, Pervine thought that the messages were from friends playing a joke on him, Kentucky State Police spokesman Barry Meadows said. But a couple of phone calls ruled out that theory, and Pervine responded to set up a meeting, Meadows said.

According to authorities, 34-year-old Ann Greenfield showed up at the meeting place and found Pervine and other cops waiting for her.

“She learned her lesson: Program your dealers into your phone,” Meadows said.

Greenfield, who teaches at Murray Middle School, was charged with conspiracy to traffic in controlled substances within 1,000 feet of a school, possession of marijuana and possession of drug paraphernalia, Meadows said.

She was suspended with pay pending the outcome of an investigation the Murray Independent School District said in a statement posted February 23 on the district’s website.

LOL! The only good response I can think of is....
