Cops get warrant to grab guy's ass crack

Boston Police report officers had to obtain a search warrant for a man's "body cavity" yesterday after they noticed "a clear plastic bag protruding from his buttocks" while booking him for distribution of cocaine and he refused to remove it:

Once the warrant was secured, the suspect was taken to the hospital where a doctor retrieved a large plastic bag containing ten (10) individually wrapped plastic bags, and eight (8) loose pieces of crack cocaine.

William A. Cobb, Jr., 25, was at District A-1 after, police say, officers observed him sell some crack cocaine to a man at the Dunkin' Donuts at Tremont and Boylston streets.

Cobb will be arraigned tomorrow on charges of distribution of Class B, and distribution of Class B within 1,000 feet of a school zone.

Innocent, etc.

Is the West Roxbury Transcript editor now writing Universal Hub headlines?

I follow this site for informative snippets of local news that I can't find anywhere else. When Universal Hub starts to read like a digital version of the 10 O'Clock News, that's when I'll stop coming back.

because it's not the 10 o'clock news. It covers (usually nominally, acknowledging more complete coverage elsewhere) all the news-y stuff in Boston, in smarter/more entertaining ways, PLUS we get stuff the news isn't on top of/doesn't care about yet. If you're too mature to snicker at drugs-in-butt heds, that's your loss, cupcake.

Actually, I think it's the Somerville Journal you want (same owner as the Transcript, though).

Yeah, I did think about that headline. But if you've been reading the site for awhile, you know I can't resist a good (er, bad) pun. And this one just seemed like a hanging curve ball lobbed toward the plate and I'm David Ortiz in 2004. But what would a more acceptable headline be?

Isn't that a sci fi story?

Anon (not verified)'s temper tantrum is funny.

Adam, I'm not coming back unless every headline starts with the word: fuckyeah

It looks like the BPD may have just busted another guy for selling drugs to an undercover officer tonight at the corner of Charles and Boylston Streets.

Wouldn't a drug bust refer to a situation where drugs were hidden in a lady's cleavage or brassiere?

You just have to keep abreast of these things - and not get too cheeky.

Sunday night proves to be the dead zone for the UHub competitive punocracy.

That has got to be the best UHub comment I have ever seen.

Well, we did have a bribery bust not so long ago ...

Everyone makes fun of cops for being at Dunkin's all the time but they're actually staking out drug deals. Nice work officers!

This story also lends credence to the theory (posted by Adam himself, a couple years back) that the products themselves at Dunkin's are laced with crack--thus explaining their addictive qualities.

They should have made a video of the doctor removing the bag from the guy's ass, and show it in every school in the city.

"This is where drugs come from. Do you wanna get high now?"

This is your ass....this is your ass on drugs...No, I mean this is drugs IN YOUR ASS. Any questions?

It's oddly reassuring to know that even if you're in police custody, they still need a warrant to go up your ass.

The whole school zone drug law crap makes me so angry every time it comes up. Oh, it is a Sunday night and you're selling weed to some sixty-year-old in an alley that happens to be two blocks from a preschool (which is probably every alley in Boston)? EXTRA TIME IN JAIL FOR YOU!

The spirit of that law is DEAD. Or it never existed in the first place, and was always meant to be just another way to add to a person's sentence and make people think it was to protect the children.

Grrr...

Plus, one would think there would be some kind of exemption to that law when you're also within 1000 feet of a Combat Zone.
Good thing for John Forbes that City Hall doesn't have a preschool in it- he'd be subject to the mandatory minimum just like Cornholio here will be.
