Yarmouth drug raid nets pills, pot and cash; Autopsy results released for missing Cotuit man

Barnstable County DA's office releases autopsy results for Cotuit man

HYANNIS - The Barnstable County District Attorney's office has released the autopsy results for 80-year-old Robert Ouellette, the Cotuit man who went missing on December 30 and was found in Truro last Friday.  According to the autopsy results, Mr. Ouellette's death was a result of hypothermia and heart disease.

Mr. Ouellette went missing shortly after picking up his car from a Hyannis Mercury dealership on December 30th.  According to his wife, he suffered from memory lapses, confusion and was taking over twenty different prescriptions.  

Alleged sightings in New Hampshire were disproven when Mr. Ouellette was found at a Great Hills Road home in Truro by a caretaker last Friday afternoon.

According to his wife, there were no ties that would have brought him to the Outer Cape town.

Is there anybody left in Yarmouth that isn't a criminal? It's becoming the Brockton (without the great boxers) of Cape Cod.

Oh whoopee.Big lah dee stinkin da.Since when did they care? It's only been the past what, ten years or so? Drug Task Force. What a joke.
Make all drugs legal, take the profit out, problem solved.
Grown-ups can then do lo like grown ups do.
Now you got more and more kids going to prison.More and more lives wasted. And why? Cause there's such a big profit in it.
Lock em up and throw away the key...what a barbaric and backwards way to run a society.

A couple of ounces of weed (barely enough to prosecute), less pills than anyone's grandma has, and a pellet gun.... thank God three towns sent forces to take that veritable pharmacy off the streets.

They must be looking for more federal funds.
More arrests, more money. Right?
Well, here then, go after the pharmacists! Those drugs are just as strong and addictive as any heroine on the street! And just as dangerous.
Alcohol? Tobacco?
Just make everything illegal, then you will have a never-ending supply of money at your disposal.
Plenty of bodies to fill your prisons.
And plenty of job security.
And enough fear to make everyone bow at your feet.

Who knows how many he started with? He already made over $1,700.00. I know I do not want him peddling drugs to my kids. I am glad he is off the streets. Lets hope the judges can make a difference this time & give him the book instead of a slap on the wrist.

Hell, even small time drug dealers can't make an honest living!
All kidding aside..

Entrepeneurship is quickly being eliminated..

Once the fledging, and future hopefuls, are prosecuted,and all small legitimate businesses are forced into bankruptcy due to overtaxation/regulations, and mandated healthcare..
the time is ripe for "brother" to run the show.
All our vices,needs,and business have been declared illegal, or bailed out for control, by the state..
1..1st it was prohibition.now state controlled
2.Education.now federal/state controlled
3..Gambling was next.now state controlled
4..Private industry.now federally controlled(thanx to the bailout)
Auto
Insurance
Banking
Wall Street
4.Now.drugs.
Soon we'll see federal/state distribution centers dispersing all the needs of users. wonder why all the recent flurry of small time busts..? eliminate the competition.
Plus decriminalization of pot.
5.The Internet.last conquest yet,but in the works,to be controlled..

What a concept.

Orwell would've been proud.

Who is it that prescribes the drugs? Should we go after the doctors that on a daily basis give needy patients life-saving drugs?

Two people were shot in Hyannis last night... want to guess the motivation? I'll give you a hint, they WEREN'T pharmacists.

An un-armed man with his hands behind his back was shot by a cop. What was the cop's motivation?
It's all the same motivation isn't it?
We are all out of balance with the way we are supposed to live.
Instead of locking up the kids for dealing, why don't you lock up the producers of the drugs?
The distributers. The ones who let it in this country in the first place....you don't think it gets here all by its lonesome do you? It needs some inside help.
You know, like those two DEA agents tried to stop that drug importer from Mexico, but this administration gave him immunity and locked the agents up!
Why do you think that was?
Why do they let drugs come in here in the first place?
"Some people got to have it...hey hey some people really need it"
No, not drugs... money.
