Apropos Of The Previous Post of the Day

Apropos Of The Previous Post of the Day: An 87-year-old man from Indiana was arrested in Michigan with 228 pounds of cocaine in his pick-up truck.

Leo Earl Sharp initially refused the officers’ request to search his vehicle, so a police dog was brought in to sniff around. Cops ultimately found 105 bricks of the white stuff, said to be valued at $2.9 million.

According to The Detroit News, during his court appearance, Sharp complained that he couldn’t hear the judge, having lost his hearing “in the war.” 

Among other random outbursts, Sharp claimed he was forced to transport the cocaine “by gunpoint,” and said he has “never used a drug in my life.” He later apologized for the interruptions, saying “I’m sorry to be so troublesome, I don’t mean to be that way.”

He was charged with conspiracy to possess with intent to distribute and released on bond. Another hearing has been set for November 10th.
