33-year-old Margery Dayrider called police because she'd had a bad reaction to a batch of meth she injected. She was experiencing a variety of symptoms, including vomiting, a tingling tongue, and a bad taste in her mouth.

Dayrider went on to tell police that she does meth "three times a day" and had never had this reaction before. Dayrider also said that she and her boyfriend had purchased the drug the night before and that she injected herself at 9 AM, 11 AM, and 3 PM. Dayrider handed the meth over to police, who promptly arrested her for felony drug possession. [The Smoking Gun]

Employees noticed smoke coming from the women's section of the store Thursday morning. They found 27-year-old Joy Cagle setting articles of clothing on fire with her lighter.

Cagle initially told police that she unintentionally started the fire--that she has ADHD and needs to flick lighters and use fidget spinners to keep her mind busy. She later changed her story and claimed that an unknown man had lit the clothes. In addition to the lighter, officers found illegal drugs in Cagle's possession. I know...I'm just as surprised as you are. [Memphis Commercial Appeal]

syringe hidden inside.

Conley said he used the syringe to inject chickens with vitamins, but it doesn't really make sense to sneak your chicken needles into jail...so police tested it and found that the liquid inside the syringe tested positive for heroin.

Conley was hit with an additional charge of drug possession as well as a charge for smuggling contraband into jail. [ClickOrlando.com]

And somewhere, his chickens are going without nourishment. WHY ISN'T ANYBODY THINKING ABOUT THE CHICKENS?
