Just other day, old friend called, we chatted for a few. Then he came out with another "Mike" story. I knew it. Was about time for ole Mike to screw up again.
Seems Mike was over here somewhere in TX, and got stopped sitting still. Boat launch, dirt road, or somewhere. Having Lousiana plates he stood out.
Had a machete in the car with him. Guess that was suspicious. Don't know the real story. But he said he was camping. Didn't jive with DPS. Upon search they find several fresh cut marijuana plants in garbage bags in trunk.
He somehow gets out on bond, goes back to Lousiana and claims he can't find an attorney. Skips the TX court appearance. TX files arrest warrant with LA. He learns of the warrant and skips town. Last known whereabouts, Texas. Dumb!
So now when DPS gets him, they'll expedite to LA for the warrant. He'll then be charged in Lousiana, expedited back to TX for warrant and court.
Dumb.
Back in my 20's Mike and I rented a 4 bedroom house. Mike was always late with the rent, I covered it....several times. He owed me about 3 to 4 months back. He was too busy playing high roller in a Datsun B210, spending his time partying in Hammond and New Orleans.
His ex unexpectedly moved in with a kid. Told Mike that wasn't going to work. She had no job or vehicle. I sure wasn't supporting her, and he was never there especially when rents due.
Told him he needed to pay up what he owes me. He always was trying to make that big score but couldn't keep his nose out of it. I would come home from work and have a house full of people partying and ultimately couch surfing. Shit was getting old.
Got up one Saturday and went about cleaning up a mess. Guess I was making noise and one of em got upset with me because they were trying to sleep. Got cocky with me. Bad idea.
Out comes the .357 in his face, and I quietly explained that this was my house and I will not take threats. Then loudly ran every God damned one of them......right off the hill.
Mike finally got up, wondering what the hell was going on. I explained that I had "cleaned the house". The place was a disaster. He looked around, obviously confused in his "brown alley haze". Laughing he asked what did i use to clean?
Out comes the .357.....I cleaned the house of all those POS's.
2 weeks later ole Mike got busted going across the Causeway to New Orleans and got busted with 8 ball, 2 triple beams, and other paraphernalia. All he had to do was throw it out, but always trying to make that big score, he owed someone BIG. Figured he could talk his way out.
He gets out under suspicious reasons, then I read in the paper about a bust in New Orleans with some of the same virmin I ran off from my house. He had rolled on them. Not sure how that boy ever lived after that.
Now back to my phone call with old friend. Seems because of "the Mike story" of current date, my friend had a visit from SWAT, Sherriff Dept, and DEA at 2 AM in the morning.
Searched the house found some roaches, arrested him, and booked him for "Processed Marijuana". The report was that there was 153 pounds at that location. Reported by a CI. This was in coordination with Texas DPS. So.......we now know how ole Mike got out from Texas and back to Lousiana. They believed his lies.
Sooo.....Mike is hiding in Texas, now that's really stupid.
