Further Proof Pot Makes You Stupid

Before I get to our top story this morning, I've got to pass this one on. From the ever-growing files of dumb criminals, we present this one. According to the morning paper, he

was a hair's breadth away from receiving a package plea deal that would have imprisoned him for nine years on unrelated charges that he robbed a pharmacy and fled after killing a pedestrian with his car.

But the deal went up in smoke Thursday after he told Monroe County Court Judge Richard A. Keenan that he used marijuana before being brought over from his cell in County Jail.

The man's last name? Blunt.

I keep telling you. You can't make this stuff up.
