Another piece of trash removed from our beautiful St. Mary's streets!!

Matthew Allen Prinsen, 26, of Leonardtown was charged with theft over $1,000, after he aledgedly stole jewelry from his grandmother’s home earlier this month located in Lexington Park.

Prinsen gave some of jewelry back to Mary Prinsen after she asked him about the matter, but she told police that some of the jewelry was still missing.

On June 11, 2012 deputies responded to Callaway Shopping Center in Callway, Md., for a check the welfare call.

Upon arrival deputies found a man, later identified as Matthew Allen Prinsen, 26 of Leonardtown, passed out behind the wheel of a Dodge Dakota which was running. Deputies woke Prinsen.

As Prinsen sat up in the vehicle, deputies observed a prescription pill bottle without a label on Prinsen’s lap in plain view. The pill bottle contained 4 pills, suspected Methadone Hydrochloride, Oxycodone Hydrochloride, and Alprazolam.

Prinsen was arrested and charged with three counts of possession of a controlled dangerous substance and one count of possessing a prescription bottle with the label removed.

Wait, so when this guy takes from someone else to buy drugs, he goes to jail; but when Obamacare takes from someone else to buy drugs, it's a great day for all Americans?

Perhaps this dude could have been Obama's grandson, in the future, of course (If his girls are not too inconvenienced and punished with A BABY!).

If he could have/should have/will have been his grandson, he will be endowed with great genes for stealing from those that produce, just like his granddaddy.....

Why is it illegal to possess a prescription bottle with the label removed?

To either prove that it's your own prescription, or to verify with the person who it's prescribed to that you have their meds and why.

If there are meds in it, the authorities have the right to know what is in it.

Are you possibly asking this while ingesting prescription drugs of unknown origin/contents/specifically for one individual per doctors medical expertise?

Or just sayin'.....

The answer to your question is a no-brainer, for sure.

Maybe.

The way the story has the charge written it wouldn't matter if it had anything in it, just an unlabeled bottle is enough to be charged.

These two paragraphs make it pretty clear/sober to me:

"Upon arrival deputies found a man, later identified as Matthew Allen Prinsen, 26 of Leonardtown, passed out behind the wheel of a Dodge Dakota which was running. Deputies woke Prinsen.

As Prinsen sat up in the vehicle, deputies observed a prescription pill bottle without a label on Prinsen’s lap in plain view. The pill bottle contained 4 pills, suspected Methadone Hydrochloride, Oxycodone Hydrochloride, and Alprazolam."


I would like to know if the keys were in the ignition (could be a stolen vehicle with jumped ignition) but other than that, looks like pretty reasonable suspicion of DUI/illegal possession of scrips to me.

What say you?
