(AP)  Broward County authorities said a grandmother was arrested for hiding cocaine in her bra during a drug raid in Oakland Park.

Eight others were also arrested Friday at or near the home of Henrietta Corvin Daise, 62. Many of them were her grandchildren.

Jail records show Daise posted $7,500 bail Saturday.

The Broward County Sheriff's Office said deputies conducted a search warrant on her home and found Daise with powder cocaine stuffed in her bra. Deputies also found 20 crack cocaine rocks, four grams of powder cocaine, marijuana and $1,000 in cash.

The eight face various charges including possession and intent to sell cocaine within 1,000 feet of a church, probation violations and marijuana possession.

I suspect that Broward County Coke sales have been "sagging" for quite some time.

I knew about selling drugs near schools. Wasn''t aware of the "1000 feet of a church" deal. Maybe the Evangelical Republicans put that through? Worried about nuns & priests getting hooked on coke?

Obviously a white conspiracy. The police had it in for her & her darling grandchildren. That is one hard-looking sista. Whew. Imagine waking up next to that.

Bleem3 asks

"When will U.S. citizens stop taking drugs?"

When the sun falls from the sky.

Selling cocaine is ILLEGAL period. Would someone please explain to me what selling it within 1,000 feet from a church has to do with it!!??

"She" has an extremely frightening face. Bet the grandkids are just lovely, too. When will U.S. citizens stop taking drugs? It hurts them, it ruined their society, and it''s just so stupid and inane to take something to make them stupider than usual.
