Haha. I moved here from a million person city, too. I always wonder how people end up where they end up. This is the weirdest shit ever. Like 10 years ago I was doing a bathroom remodel for this guy that legit probably lives another 30 minutes out in the sticks from where I am right now. We got to talking and turns out we grew up in the same city and went to rival high schools. Talked a little bit more about the old days and realized that I actually went to school and had some classes with his cousins.

Well I blame my family that moved here before me. Gave my mom the bright idea and I left briefly but ended up right back :joy:

That’s pretty much exactly how I ended up here. I even made a few escape attempts over the years. Tried to make a new life in some small town in TN and no bullshit the police ran me out of town.

Small towns in Tennessee have one business, locking people up forever. Consider yourself lucky they just ran you out :laughing:

I spent a year outside Manchester after a Bonnaroo trip, like moved in a place (for a chick, derrrr). Everybody I met had been in jail or were on release from jail awaiting trial. Everyone was a f*$&ing informant, it was CRAAAAZY. Like legit 1984, East Germany/KGB society.

I quickly realized my mistake & moved to Nashville. Lovely city, awesome people, good times. Just don’t leave the city :+1:

@HomegrownVABudz Cool I see you got that local homies seeds :+1: Should be good

Holy smokes. Your story might as well be my story. The informants, all of it. This is a little long but pretty entertaining I think.

I got a job at the only 24 hour gas station in town working grave yard shift and quickly made friends with all the towns police. These fools were terrifying with how openly excited they got when talking to me about how they couldn’t wait to shoot one of these dumb ass “N’s”. I knew I really fucked up when we started talking drugs and I asked them what their biggest bust was and they got hella pumped up as they recounted the QP king pin bust from several years earlier. I started nodding my head like “uh huh uh huh wooowwww,” while doing the mental math that I was probably bringing 15 a week into their sleepy little town. Turns out on some even crazier shit I ended up stashing a 5 pack at an informants house. Lol. He would take an O or 2 from me at a time and take fucking for ever to move it. His brother also sold weed in the town. So the informant calls me one day and all of a sudden he has clientele that need an elbow, they need two, they need a 5 pack. My spider senses are screaming. I’m thinking my man is setting me up to get robbed so I tell him “you’re gonna have to call your brother about that, he’s the one with all the damn weight.” We both knew that wasn’t the truth but that was basically my way of telling this dude to get fucked. No bullshit, first thing smoking the next morning, this dudes brothers house gets kicked in by every every cop on the force. That bitch wasn’t setting me up for a robbery, he was trying to hit me with the okey doke and I accidentally played the Uno skip reverse draw four card on their rat ass family.

So the cops are still my friends. They invite me to the station to hang out after my shift is over. Intrigued, I obliged these assholes. This invitation goes on for days. I’m listening to their 911 calls come in and they are laughing with each other about how they are just gonna let the Ns fight with each other for 30 minutes so they are tired by the time they show up. Then one of them pulls me aside and says hey you want some ringtones for your phone? I’m like sure, how does that work. Dude was like we downloaded this program and you basically just plug your phone in and you can do the songs straight to your phone.

Dope! I’m gonna plug my phone into cop computer for “free ringtones,” yeah fucking right. I don’t wanna do it but I don’t wanna seem sketchy either so I’m like “lol. Isn’t that a federal crime, copy right infringement or something.” The dude says “who gives a shit, we aren’t the federal police.” So like fuck okay. Load me up bro. They plug my phone in and run all kinda what ever the program was and in actuality I got a bunch of free ringtones. I’m sure with police spy gear. I burned the phone instantly and only used it to holler at girls and call my mom. Safe.

So heres where the story takes a turn. Me and my childhood friend who I was living with went to the local video store. I rented a movie and this MF put a video game up his shirt and walked out with me the same time. The alarm is blazing and the cashier is ready for action. I turned to her and showed her the thing I just rented and shrugged my shoulders. We left and went home. My homie had some needle nose pliers and pulled the locking mechanism out of the case and chucked it out the window. I was laughing and was like you are a fucking idiot. It’s like a dollar rental. He said fuck em and for real I was kinda hyped to get home and play some Mario kart.

We get home and start playing the game. There was a light knock on the door and I popped up to go answer it. I open the door and am greeted by two detectives who say “thanks for opening up for us. I think we will come in.” They push their way in. They look over on the coffee table and see the game case. “there it is right there,” they say. We are in preservation mode. We had a party and some one left it here. I dunno what’s happening. The works. The detectives are looking at me and they say “look man, we have you on camera stealing the game. Just admit to it and make things easier on yourself.” Lol no thanks. “One last time, you can either admit to it now or we can come back with a warrant.” Warrant. Yes, come back with a warrant. Have a nice day." And they leave. The weed game was over but my man decided to move his personal out of the house just to be safe. Later that night my man is like I don’t think they are coming back. I’m gonna get something to roll up. I start laughing and say bro have you seen this town? They are definitely coming back. I hop in the shower and start washing my ass. I’m in there for 5 minutes before I hear some one beating down the front door. Great. I think my man tried to hide in the closet and I hear some one yelling I see you trying to hide in there. Open the door or we’ll knock it down. Great. So he opens the door and all of a sudden there are a couple cops in the bathroom with me. What’s up fellas?

Oh shit, it’s my besties. They are looking at me like wtf man? They let me get dressed and they pull me aside. No one is talking about stolen video games any more. The first question is “where are the pounds and where are the guns?” Interesting. I shrug my shoulders. I dont know nothing. Another one of the cops says “You don’t know nothing? You look like a smart guy. I bet you know something.” I tell him “Yeah I’m really smart and I know all kinds of things. What do you need help with? Math? History?” They start talkin shit and I’m just laughing. Our friendship is over.

Well, they found the weed my homie brought back in. They ended up charging him with theft, possession with intent, and like 10 paraphernalia charges for like papers roach clips ash tray. Shit was ludicrous. I thought everything was over but they carted me off for theft too.

They set my man’s bond at $50k so he was sitting tight for a minute. I got my bond and it was $750. The homies girls mom came and bailed me out the next morning. I gave her the cash and she got him out too. So my man took the wrap for everything, like he was supposed to. So I’m sitting there like sweet. Everything should be dropped against me. Wrong. I’m still going to court. So I get to court and blah blah blah the judge asks how I plead. I tell him well my man has admitted to everything so how do I just get out of here? Innocent. The judge says “okay so you want to move to a jury trial?” I reply “I want to do what ever gets me out of here the quickest.” He said just plea guilty and we’ll get your probation paperwork started. Fine “guilty”. He then starts going into his routine about how much I’m going to owe in fines and fees! Then he says I need to do some paper work to start a payment plan. I say “payment plan? I don’t need that.” This fool straight nods to some cop in the court room and says to follow him out into the hallway. When away from everyone else my man says “how do you intend to make payment?” I said “I can pay this bullshit right now! I’m trying to get this over with.” It was like $700 or something. He said you can pay me right now. As soon as I handed him the cash, he counted it out. He looked at me and tore up all of my court paperwork in front of me. He looked me dead in my eyes and said “I suggest you get the fuck out of my town. Don’t get in any trouble, you understand me?” I was like yessir I’m pickin up what your puttin down." He went back into the court room and I went home to pack my shit up. I called up this girl that had a crush on your boy and I told her "Your boys on the way. I dapped up the homie and I was gone the next morning.

And that’s the story of how I ended up in Richmond.
