It is not Thomas’ home, it was sombody elses. If it was sombody elses home why isn't the owner being charged as well, the owner had to have known what was brought into his home and even allowed it even with all the traffic in and out of the house. anonon because it is about POSESSION... When they say home they mean where he resides... not that he necessarily owns it... The owner also lived there and Tiki ,there is no way that the owner didn't know what was takeing place in his own home. Ever heard of assessory to the crime? I just say... GET EM' GET EM' ALL off our streets and keep our children safe. By getting to these folks and taking away the drugs, children are going to be safer in their own homes. If the parents can't get the drugs it won't have such a large impact on their children ,either. Drug addicts are not Bad people The are good people in big trouble. Addiction is powerful and it robs us all with it's affects. RECOVERY is the ANSWER. GET HELP before it is TOO LATE. |
