Man Arrested for Breaking into Prison
June 3rd, 2009 by Russ
In the ‘watch out what you wish for’ category, an Arkansas man was arrested this week for attempting to sneak into a local state prison and join in the thriving contraband trade market. 20-year old Bobby Finley was carrying pocketfuls of coke and cigarettes when police caught him cutting down a chain link fence surrounding the Miller County Jail.
The 20-year old entrepreneur will undoubtedly serve the 19 years of his sentence trying to figure out the ins and outs of the Arkansas Prison Drug Dealing Network. Finley was sentenced to two separate three-year possession charges as well as a little known ‘furnishing prohibited substances’ charge. Apparently, this is something that you can only be charged with while operating in a prison environment.
So, not only did Mr. Finley attempt to illegally infiltrate a building full of law enforcement officials, he managed to break laws that few of us even knew existed. If he keeps this up, he may be in the running for a Darwin Award some day.
