Teen Caught Smuggling Drugs in M&Ms (Weekend Post)

Memphis, Tn - 19 year old Courtney Siddons is accused of smuggling more than 5 grams of marijuana to her 25 year old inmate cousin, Rodney McGregor. The two were confronted by a corrections officer during their visit inside the Shelby County Penal Farm on Sunday.

So, when she showed up Sunday with a bag of M and M's she didn't buy from the vending machine inside the visitation room, Tabor says they knew something was up and swooped in. In brief conclusion I believe Courtney has not been raised well by his parents and this may lead to a devastating lifestyle. All in all the whole situation is believed to be derived from a bad background. Read the article here.
