Jail me, Elmo?

UNIONTOWN, Pa. - Police say a Pennsylvania father went to his son's elementary school to retrieve nearly four ounces of marijuana from the kindergartner's Elmo backpack.



State police say Ronald Washington, 33, called Menallen Elementary School in Uniontown on Thursday morning to ask if his son had arrived at school. Police say Washington told school officials he needed to fetch something from the boy's backpack, prompting school officials to search it.



Police say school officials called to say they had found pot in the bag. Troopers were waiting to arrest Washington when he arrived shortly before 9 a.m.



Online court records don't list an attorney for Washington. He was unable to post $100,000 and jailed.

Why would the dad hide his weed in the kids backpack in the 1st place?

What a stupid father. Just because the backpack and the kid who's carrying it look innocent, doesn't mean he won't get caught. Plus, why would it be the only place to hide your weed? I would have some under my bed, in the closet, socks, etc. Desperate much?

Maybe someone walking in the room and the backpack was the nearest thing to hide it before he got caught. Then he forgot he put it in there.

Who knows... He is an idiot none the less.
