Alleged Drug Dealer Caught With Hundreds...in Change

Eunice,La. (AP) - A suspected drug dealer was caught with about 14-hundred dollars. That's not unusual, except it was all in pennies, nickels and dimes. Laura Balthazar, chief deputy for the Saint Landry parish sheriff, says people are desperate, using their last penny to get their fix. Twenty-three-year-old Jim Austin Lewis was arrested by sheriff's deputies and Eunice police at his home after authorities had received public complaints. He was booked with possessing and intending to distribute crack cocaine and marijuana, along with firearms charges.

LOL, times really are bad in the good state of Louisiana.

As to the topic of the OP, I get the Atlanta stations on my dishtv and well, this isn't just a problem here. The way things are being reported you would swear that there is absolutely no crime or corruption anywhere else.
