Link no good. If true, they got what they deserved. Probably were cutting into some TN politician’s profits, thus the investigation.

Wouldn’t the kids be embarrassed if my wife and I died in a shootout with the cops.

If you can’t do the time don’t do the crime. $3 million in coke would doubtless send you away for decades and at their age means good chance of dying in prison.

Some people think that legalizing drugs will stop this.

They also believe that drugs will be “safe” if the government makes them legal.

Funny how they had no problem releasing their photos and information, I wonder why they can’t do this with most criminals ?

Detectives in Tennessee received information that the Stevensons were driving a semi-truck back through Texas?
I guess I'd like to know more about the mechanics and specificity of that bit of helpful data.

According to the Putnam County Sheriff's Office, the couple said they would die by “suicide by cop” if law enforcement attempted to stop them.

Again, that seems an odd bit of data to be known to the cops. How'd they find that out? And it seems very convenient. Are sure it's a real bit of data?

“ the couple said they would die by “suicide by cop” if law enforcement attempted to stop them”

It nice to see the couple fulfill their fantasy to be Bonnie and Clyde

it would, because no one would find it worth $3million to transport something legal.

Did they die with a smile on their faces?

They died doing what they loved — working as mules and dealers.
