Smoking Gun ^ | SEPTEMBER 8, 2017

A woman being booked into an Illinois jail had a loaded handgun hidden in her vagina, according to corrections officers who found the weapon during a strip search of the suspect.

Amika Witt, 20, and a male acquaintance were arrested early Thursday morning after their car was stopped for speeding on Interstate 55 just north of Bloomington. A police search of the vehicle and its occupants turned up heroin and Ecstasy.

Witt, seen at right, was subsequently transported to the McLean County jail, where the intake process included a strip search.

During the search of Witt, a female jailer recovered a loaded Kimber .380 caliber handgun from the suspect’s vagina. The gun--seen below in a photo from the manufacturer’s web site--had a fully loaded clip and a bullet in the chamber.

The handgun weighs 13.4 ounces with an empty magazine and is 5.6” long.

In addition to narcotics possession charges, Witt, who lives in Missouri, was also hit with a felony weapons count. She is locked up in lieu of $40,035 bond.

Yes, this has happened before. And before.

From the headline I figured it would be “hotdog down a hallway” Goldberg.

[LukeL]

You took my line!

[Lockbox]

good thing the gun did not discharge, she would of come and gone at the same time...............

[Governor Dinwiddie]

That's a pretty rough looking age twenty. She should be going to proms and cotillion.

Help me find my keys and we'll drive out of here.

See what "sheath" translates to in Latin ...

[Dilbert San Diego]

The gun was loaded??

Geez you have to be careful when you snatch that gun out of there.........

[Celerity]

One in the chamber ? It’s not like this element to correctly handle and administer this sort of firearm.

An expensive little one like the Kimber ? I seriously, seriously hope it was decocked.

heh

[Pearls Before Swine]

A loaded handgun. Where?

Shouldn’t this be posted to the “Bang List?” /S

[knittnmom]

BUN in the oven, lady, BUN, not GUN!

Doing lots of drugs ... and shoving a pistol up your "sheath" ... may lead to premature aging.

[VietVet876]

Wonder if the pistol was cocked.

A real bang....

[a fool in paradise]

That’s a hard 20 years.

[Clutch Martin]

Reminds me of a line from an old blues song “She’s Tight Like That”

[Hammerhead]

Well played Lockbox....well played.

I’ll see you in hell.

Tough? Dunno, but big, OK.

Put one hand in, put the other one, now clap, can't do it...tight?
