Habitual offender sentenced to 60 years

Originally published by The Pine Bluff Commercial

A Drew County jury this week sentenced a habitual offender with 17 prior felony convictions to 60 years in prison for possession of crack cocaine with intent to deliver. By law, Michael Anthony Green, 41, will be required to serve 1/4th of his sentence.

Green had rotated through the prison system since 1987, and was arrested after a parole officer verified his presence at Pine Hill Liquor Store, a violation of his parole requirements. Police stopped Green’s vehicle shortly after he left the store and located when they took him into custody a small breath mint dispenser containing crack cocaine in his pocket. A plastic bag was also found containing a larger quantity of the drug.

Green maintained in court that he had paid $120 for the drug and it was for personal use. However, agents deemed as experts in the street value of the narcotic testified the crack cocaine in Green’s possession valued at approximately $1,000.

I'd like you to meet little Kwynne Morphis, my friend K.T.'s newest arrival. I'm already SO smitten with her, and I haven't even held her yet! Isn't she adorable?!?

My friend asked me to post this...

I was shopping on ebay when I come across this family's auction which later led me to this website. I beg of you, please go to this website, read about them and if it touches your heart, donate to help them. If I had 20,000 to purchase everything they are selling on ebay I would purchase it and let them keep every single bit of it. My heart breaks for this family. I know that I as a person take so much for granted. I have so many things to be thankful for. Just reading about this family's struggle and the decisions they have made and the faith that they have held on to during all of their hard times makes me feel so ashamed at my petty whining and griping over things that truly don't even matter in this world. I know that we all can't donate but if you can't...please pray for them. Some may be able to give more than others. I am unable to donate a large amount but if we all give something small, it will become something big. Thanks so much to everyone who is willing to help this family out.

***Please repost this and lets help them in every way we can!!!***

ALSO: It is my understanding that if they do not sell everything in their bulk auction on ebay that will end at 11:58 pm on 01-29-2009, they plan to auction things out separately. You could also go and purchase something from them and allow them to keep it.

Just something to consider!

Thanks again,

Summer

Especially for my friend Dean...

Well, of COURSE I'm serious, Dean!!!

Here's your joke:
