A woman's mistake of hiding her belongings in a "bag of drugs" teaches her a valuable lesson.

Lauren Riley, a 41-year-old woman, recently found herself in trouble with the law after a traffic stop in Florida. The incident occurred when a police officer noticed that she was not wearing a seatbelt while riding as a passenger in a vehicle. As the officer approached the car, they observed Riley moving items around in the passenger floorboard. This caught the officer's attention and prompted them to conduct a search.

Upon closer inspection, the officer discovered a small and used piece of burnt tin foil on the floorboard. The driver of the vehicle informed the officer that Riley was under the influence of alcohol. As Riley stepped out of the car, the officer noticed a plastic straw sticking out from the floorboard. This led them to conduct a more thorough search, which ultimately revealed a white bag labeled "bag of drugs" inside Riley's purse.

The contents of the bag included various drug paraphernalia such as plastic baggies with white residue, a metal spoon, glass pipes with residue, a needle, and two straws. In addition, the officer also found a green bag containing several types of drugs, including cocaine, crack cocaine, crystal meth, hydromorphone pills, amphetamine/dextroamphetamine pills, and alprazolam pills. Riley was immediately arrested and charged with multiple drug possession charges and possession of drug paraphernalia.

Following her arrest, Riley was taken to the Pinellas County Jail in Florida. The police department then placed her "bag of drugs" in an evidence locker. The report obtained by The Smoking Gun also revealed that Riley's purse had a label explicitly stating "bag of drugs," which raises suspicions about her involvement in drug-related activities.

The Pinellas County Sheriff's Office has since announced that Riley is facing numerous felony charges and a misdemeanor count of possessing drug paraphernalia. The incident serves as a reminder to always follow traffic laws, as you never know what could be discovered during a routine traffic stop.
