A North Carolina Highway Patrol trooper pulled over a carload of Virginia teens in Bladen County Saturday for speeding, but that turned out to be the least of their troubles.

The teens were headed to Myrtle Beach – with 3.3 ounces of marijuana, 2.6 grams of cocaine, 18 liters of liquor, 50 liters of beer, drug paraphernalia and $3,600 in cash, according to Sheriff James A. McVicker of the Bladen County Sheriff’s Office.

They were arrested and charged with an array of drug and alcohol crimes, including transporting liquor across state lines.

Their 2006 Trailblazer was pulled over at 11:30 p.m. Saturday by Trooper Ronnie Walker, for going 76 mph in 55 mph stretch of NC 87 near Tar Heel. Walker said he smelled marijuana and called for assistance from the Bladen County Sheriff’s office, resulting in the discovery of drugs, alcohol and cash in the vehicle.

A press release said the officials discovered the three teenagers had just graduated from high school Friday night in Manassas, Virginia, and were going to meet a group of their friends for the trip in Myrtle Beach. The release said 10 teenagers planned the trip a year ago and pooled their money together.

The teens were identified those arrested as: Michal Joan Berrios, 18, Lorenzo Dominic Cota, 18, and Cristhianna Ismael Ortez Flores, 18. All three were from Manassas, Va., and were each charged with violations that included underage possession of a alcohol, illegal transport of alcoholic beverages; possession with intent to manufacture sell and deliver marijuana and cocaine and felony possession of marijuana and cocaine

Berrios was placed under a $28,300 bond, Cota received a $43,000 bond and Ortez Flores was placed under a $27,000 bond.

“I am pleased we have such a good working relationship with other state and local agencies,” said McVicker in a statement. “This is a good example of teamwork and commitment. I am sure no one expected a simple stop for speeding to turn out like this.

all a dis... gone

They were wild for the night.

Don't put all yo eggs in one basket...


"Get ready....for your blessing....."

"Get ready....for your blessing....."

that liquor selection has kids written all over it, plus that wasn't going to last all week

Ooops. 4 cases. Didn't see the ones on the right

"Get ready....for your blessing....."

I'm guessing maybe one #000000...who plays sports with them.

"Get ready....for your blessing....."

flavors and all

so all that was in the car and not in the trunk?
going 76 on a 55 mph stretch...
blowin..
in North Cackalacka....


I'm guessing they were too hype and anxious?? couldn't wait to get the party started??

Reminds me of travelling down to Freaknik. So many dudes getting pulled over for driving reckless anytime 85S was backed up.

Trooper bragging about fucking-up the lives of recent graduates going to celebrate. Acting like they just pulled over one of BMF's suppliers, when it's just some kids with smoke & drink (and a little coke).

Way to keep those menaces off the street, North Carolina.

But that's probably the most action they've had in months

I didn't know transporting liquor across state lines was a crime. Learn something new everyday.

...so the selection is limited by what's on the state's list. Easy way to get around both of those limitations is to simply make the drive over the bridge to NJ to grab. Technically illegal, but it's hard to prove where someone actually bought liquor on the side of the road, so in-effect the only ones that have to worry are people moving quantity (like bar managers trying to save a few bucks)


I think it's illegal here because the state-run liquor system means state taxes, and the state doesn't like losing out on that tax money (if you buy from another state).

dumbest shit ever. Jersey was making a killing.

at least some locations.

@silentintellect

Honestly think we'll get state-legal weed before the state privatizes the liquor system here.

@silentintellect

(Mr. Eddie) used to serve the local drunks by the drink late at night. They'd bang on his front door and pay him and drink it right there on his porch.

Mr. Eddie was 80 years old (in the 90's) and said he'd killed a white man in Virginia, where he was from, when he was young and had to move to Philly. I believed him because he could have kicked my ass, even once I was 6 feet tall.

but the way that sentence was written, it's as if transporting the liquor across state lines was illegal in and of itself, which if true seems a little odd to me since liquor is a legal substance.

Liquor definitely though.

see also: the limits on cigarettes.

see also: The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.

PA is (overly-) concerned w/keeping organized crime out of the liquor and tobacco business.

bringing liquor into NC or taking it out is a crime as far as i know. NC has ABC (Alcoholic Beverage Control) here and they run everything. you can't even order drinks online and have them shipped to you in NC because it's against the law.

talking about cooperation between law enforcement agencies and shit.

most action they get in a month is Bubba's cousin Ralph getting caught tippin cows on Pernel's farm again....

"Get ready....for your blessing....."

collection of chiquor (I just made that up for chick liquor) as if it's 50 tons of heroine seized on the border is sad as fuck, and I wonder if the teens being latin have anything to do with it, honestly. Because that is some lightweight ass shit and Daytona Beach on any given Friday night is packed with motel rooms with more impressive collections than that.

.

They really made it sound like they been staking these kids out for months.
