BUSTED: Consider the motives

| April 29, 2020 1:00 AM

Regarding meth bust at State Line, the article states that Idaho police wanted Joshua Bailey to conduct a Spokane drug purchase in Idaho and not in Spokane. Question is why?

Possibly to arrest some Spokane citizens and incorporate them into the Idaho industrial prison complex? More jobs, pensions, etc.

More taxpayer dollars to support that, more money spent to “rehabilitate,” and of course another jail expansion in Kootenai County?

Or to support the “great” need of building an inmate relocation center in Kootenai County, that no one in their right mind wants?

Reminds me of last week’s bust at top of Lookout Pass, Mont. Why didn’t the Idaho State patrol call the bust into Montana police and let them deal with it?

Guess I’ll be seeing those three delightful creatures walking our streets within a year or so. After they’ve been rehabilitated.

What a joke!
