Flush with cash

Posted 01.10.2006 by scatoman
Growing up addicted to detective shows and true crime, I had always been aware that people would flush drugs down the toilet whenever they were on the brink of being raided. However, surely even the dumbest criminal would realize that it's not a good idea to do away with evidence any larger than a few wraps of heroin. Given the usual diameter of an S-bend, surely no one would stuff, say, oooh, a considerable amount of cash down the toilet?

Not so.

Take currency forgers Selina Jean Valdez and Daniel Marquez, of Pueblo, Colorado. It seems that the couple, aware their duplex was about to be raided in late December, flushed wads of counterfeit money down the toilet. The result? Destroyed plumbing. A flooded apartment. Urination and defecation in plastic bags for over a week, until the cops came back on Thursday to search the dwelling and arrest the couple.

According to the Pueblo Chieftain, "hunks of suspected counterfeit bills [were] packed into the pipes...span[ning] from just a few feet beyond the toilet to almost 100 feet along the lines."

It's early days, but I think that if there were an award for the Most Inappropriate Use of a Toilet, this incident would be a strong contender for the 2006 crown. Seriously, what could top this over the next eleven and a half months?

Show some poop support, or make a poop retort.

Back in my UGA days, Russell Hall, where I lived, was all male (well, officially anyway) and its "sister" dorm, Brumby, was all female. I have always been into how things work, so I became good friends with Mr. Farty, who was the head of maintenance for these high-rise dorms.

He told me that the girls in Brumby flushed so many sanitary napkins and tampons, that the very first thing he did when he got to work every morning was to pour a bottle of sulfuric acid into Brumby's sewer. Eventually, the acid ate up the cast-iron sewer line, and one weekend Brumby's basement was flooded with everything the cloaca could possibly contain. I went over there and looked at it before they cleaned it up, and I swear it was disgusting enough to back a buzzard off a gut wagon.

By contrast, the worst thing you'd usually ever fish out of Russell's drains was the occasional (in those post-pill but pre-STD days) used condom.

But some people, like the dumbasses in this story, think the toilet goes straight to the center of the earth. Anybody ever seen that old cartoon of the guy in the commode, with his hand on the handle about to flush, saying "goodbye, cruel world!"?

Lame comment! -1 point

Yay second post.

Yes, according to Roto-rooter, people are retarded with toilets. O course, somtime the toilet is the best way to hide the evidence. I remember some people escaped from jail by flushing dirt down the crapper.

They pooped in plastic bags? I would have hated to be the dumpster diver at that complex.

Dumpster,
You got me thinking when you commented on sewer pipes going to the center of the Earth.

What if we really could pump our sewage into the Earth's core, bypassing aquifers and other environmentally sensitive places? We'd keep the ground water pure and clean, and help our beloved planet to keep its homefires burning, so to speak, by supplying it with a neverending feed of combustible fuel.

It would all be recycled as geothermal energy that we could harness for the benefit of humanity. Of course, it would also mean that that Old Faithful would spew magma-hot poop and melted tampons and who-knows-what else, but what the heck.

Well, the earth's core is largely made of iron, as gravity draws the heaviest matter towards the center. I let out some solid logs in my younger days that, under this prinicple, are probably already there. Nowadays, however, with IBS, everything is either a blast or a drizzle (sort of like my love life).

Yeah Dumpster. IBS is no picnic, but I digress.

People do use toilets as a quick way do dispose of evidence.

But some types of paper can stick the the walls of the pipes, which leads to the major clogs. Even still, in a large city, the counterfeit bills can be obtained from the sewage treatment plant. So a toilet does not completly get rid of the evidence. All a toilet does is act as a vehicle to transport whatever is in it, to another site.
