PeeKnuckle Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 A Minnesota waitress and mom of five couldn't believe it when a stranger left a $12,000 tip in a to-go box on her table. Now she's in an equally unbelievable legal battle with the Moorhead Police, who seized the money, citing its "strong odor of marijuana." The officers say the cash is part of a drug investigation; the waitress' lawyer counters that the police have stolen an anonymous Samaritan's gift to a woman with well-known financial problems. The police won't release the cash for an independent drug test, although a pair of restaurant employees who are "familiar with [marijuana]" said it definitely wasn't weed-scented. "It smells of unfairness," Ritchie says.http://now.msn.com/now/0404-cops-seize-tip.aspx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dateranoth Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 Because it actually smells like it? I thought it was a figure of speech at first. What a load of crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skylark95 Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 Can't they just make her out a check for the $12k, then keep the bills? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avahra Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 Damn it Chris, i read that and wanted to post it. Apparently she has a family of 5 and they are struggling to make ends meet (She's a waitress, no ****) so this is a big blessing for her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
