Initially, Cynthia Scholes was simply a passenger in a vehicle that was stopped by police just before midnight for speeding. Normally, this might not be a really big problem – except, this is Florida right?
After the driver consented to a search of the vehicle, police reported finding a cigar wrapper containing about 3 grams of marijuana in the passenger seat where the 41-year-old Scholes was sitting. A further search of her purse revealed a crack pipe, police said.
At this point, although going to jail, these were only misdemeanor charges. But, then again, were talking Florida and the plot thickens.
Just before transporting Scholes to jail, police asked her if she was in possession of any other drugs or paraphernalia. She said no. However, back at the pokey, an x-ray machine revealed something. That something, after a subsequent search by a female officer, produced two crack pipes that were found nestled within Scholes’s fleshy folds. In other words, they were found in her vagina.
One of the pipes contained, according to police, about 0.01 grams of crack cocaine.
In addition to the earlier misdemeanor charges of possession of marijuana and drug paraphernalia, Scholes then was charged with felony counts of cocaine possession and smuggling contraband into the jail.
Her bond was set at $10,000.
