PALATKA, Fla., Dec. 19 (UPI) -- A woman who tried to get her money back by complaining to police in Florida about the dealer who sold her poor quality crack cocaine ended up behind bars.

Eloise Reaves of North Carolina lodged her complaint with a Putnam County deputy sheriff who was responding to a call to a convenience store, WJXT-TV in Jacksonville reported. Deputy Jeffrey Pedrick warned her that if the stuff tested positive for cocaine she would be arrested.

Reaves, even after she was booked, told police they should find the drug seller and get her money back on the grounds that there was wax mixed in with the crack. She was later freed on bail.

Reminds me of a short lived show I used to love called America's Dumbest Criminals. I don't usually go in for reality shows but that one was a gem.

I do agree with the crack head, though. That the cops should have arrested the drug dealer too.

This is the funniest part. Even after she's arrested, she's still trying to convince them to get her money back!

This sounds like the guy who called the police to report his marijuana being stolen.

Palatka is a serious rural and ignorant area of Florida. Initially I just knew this moron was from there, Glad to see somewhere else produces stupids too.

What's really sad is that I know where Palatka is, but didn't realize this was an NC ping until after I read the article...My wife and I were laughing about this Palatkastani crackhead, and it turns out she's from HERE!

It caught me off guard, too. The complainant was "visiting" Palatka, FLA, it appears. There's not much to the article, so, we'll have to imagine she purchased from someone in Palatka. Went back to her temp digs, tried the merchandise, and complainted to FLA authorities about bad merchandise. One can only wonder why she didn't contact the Better Business Bureau in FLA, eh?
