A Missouri man trying to sell a catalytic converter online has been arrested after a huge stash of meth and a syringe were spotted in the background of the photo he used for the advertisement.

James Kertz, 38, was taken into custody in Reeds Spring on Wednesday after posting a photo of the catalytic converter on Facebook Marketplace.

His bag of meth and drug paraphernalia were clearly visible on the coffee table behind the exhaust emission device he was trying to get rid of.

Stone County Sheriff Doug Rader said someone tipped them off to the drug stash soon after Kertz posted the ad on Facebook.

LOL!

The photo is equal parts meth and converter. Like a two for one deal.

Like the dumbest criminals feature which included the guy who robbed the bank and set down his wallet with driver’s license on the teller shelf and left without it. “How on earth did you track me down?”

Is that for real?

Since I'm retired and a recluse I don't associate with any Dems now to hear how the criminals act.

So they pretend it's for something else and maybe talk in code?

Some years ago on a truck related forum a thread about recent images send back from Saturn popped up.

As you may recall there was a fantastic image of the planet and its rings backlit by the sun.

One forumite quickly turned the image into his new desktop and, having taken a screen shot, posted it to the thread.

Maybe two posts later someone dryly commented “Nice She-Male Videos folder.” and chaos ensued.
