I hope she gets the help she needs, it only takes one step to start recovery. Jail can help if you use it correctly

I agree as well. When no one does any time, one does not have the opportunity to start getting clean or maybe consider changing their ways, or probation with recurring drug tests. Crime without repercussions makes it a free for all, usually with the same people time and time again.
She is way unlucky. I thought the police stopped enforcing pulling people over with expired registrations, as it was shown to most likely affect the disadvantaged proportion of the population.

Wow, I didn’t know the police weren’t enforcing people with expired registrations? I just put a $600 tag on my license plate today. I wish I would have known.

what happened is a lot of folks took out huge car loans, never made a payment, put into forebearance, and are driving the rigs free because of Covid. They don’t register them and because there are so many across the nation, Police aren’t enforcing as badly as before because the powers that be need lipstick on the economic pig for political reasons. Just my 2 cents

They can still pull you over, if you look like someone they believe is carrying drugs, or if you`re a cute woman they want to harass.

Nah DMV has been dragging ass. If you don’t send in your registration payment the day you get the renewal, the new stickers won’t make it until after everything expires. Cops know, as it happens to almost everyone. The difference: most people sleep, and don’t have warrants and a car cluttered with drugs.

Am no expert. Especially with these modern drugs, but she looks buzzed on some kinda stimulant(s) (wide eyes and clenched jaw). Yes. May she use this opportunity to turn her life around (which we can wish to all addicts, not just reasonably attractive women. Right? 😉 ).
PS: Never good to have expired registration when you are carrying contraband and have a warrant out for you!

Golly gee

Woe is me
Got to put my cheaters on

Where’d you get those steepers
Oh, those weepers, how they hypnotize
Where’d you get those eyes?

Deputies conducted a traffic stop and the driver chose not to flee on foot? That’s odd.
Ms. Brandy completely failed to uphold tradition and in doing so, has set a bad example.

Should have driven to a well-know turnout and fallen asleep like everyone else.

With those eyes and clenched jaw, she is not likely to sleep for a very, very long time.

You’re probably right. I had figured she’d just found one of Honsal’s Antifa buses and had yet to recover from the shock.

It’s probably an older mug shot, poor girl, please try being a-little kinder to yourself, seek the help, not the graveyard.

Nobody told this poor girl its not a party anymore? She did have some of the miracle cure herb. Im surprised. She wasnt healed of addiction ? There is hope however. The border czar is getting to the root of the problem. The deluge of drugs and human casualties is going to dry up any minute. Getting to the root of the problem was a very effective strategy when the czar was working under jerry brown Shes currently confused. But its only been 2 years.
