James Edwin Yokeley Jr. — the 66-year-old Republican chairman of the Surry County, North Carolina, Board of Elections — faces serious criminal charges after authorities in Wilmington, North Carolina, revealed he allegedly slipped illegal drugs into his granddaughters' ice cream.According to Raleigh,...
Or, he was trying to drug them and the children found the drugs, so he tried to make them think it wasn’t him.
At the very least, we know he had the drugs, and we know he put them in the ice cream where they could have been consumed by his granddaughters.
Unless he never tried MDMA before I doubt it. There is no way anyone that ever tasted mdma believes you can hide it in ice cream without the child immediately spitting it out
Let’s all take a step back and recognize that this is not a man making thoughtful decisions. He put drugs in ice cream for his granddaughters. His thought process isn’t likely to be anything we can fully comprehend.
Can you imagine being the parents here? “Honey, your dad slipped ecstasy into the girls’ ice cream again. Could we please just go back to the Guatemalan babysitter?”
This is the take I’ve been looking for that has been strangely absent in the comments. Can you imagine if your partners dad did this?
If the ice-cream had bits in it they might have just not chewed on it enough to recognize a pill or taste …
I don’t believe for a second he did not have the intent of drugging them… most likely had in the back of his mind if they got very ill he’d get them to a hospital and still blame what they ate.
So you have also never tasted mdma. Even a tiny crumb will make you gag the second it touches your tongue
Yeah I try to avoid ingesting unhealthy drugs :-D
The incident is bad enough without trying to exaggerate it.
He was trying to frame people.
Inconclusive
Kind of depends on what is sold to someone as ecstasy. If its actual crystalline MDMA then it wouldnt be in a pill. It was probably 2CB which is often sold as ecstasy even though it isnt MDMA. 2CB is generally a large and tasteless chalky pill
