    Excellent work Flomation PD. Another meth head off the streets. Lock her up.

    Thankful that Flomaton police are cleaning up the streets. Cannot believe that people allow drugs to take over their lives. Sad to say but addicts hardly ever learn. The smile on her face after being arrested says a lot.

    Hopefully, her family will use good judgement when it comes to bailing her out- and, or, providing her commissary. Been down this road myself….tough love isn’t easy when you love them. Remember, the longer they play on the drug-jail-rehab merri-go-round, the more expert they become in manipulation. Sorry for her family- wouldn’t wish on my worst enemy. It’s a nightmare.
