GREENVILLE, S.C. (AP) - A South Carolina man who bought more than 120 boxes of Girl Scouts cookies to help the scouts escape the cold has been arrested on drug charges. News outlets report the U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency says 46-year-old Detric Lee McGowan was arrested Tuesday on charges including conspiracy to distribute fentanyl and cocaine. The agency says McGowan is the same man who appeared in a photo that garnered thousands of views and shares online. Mother Kayla Dillard had shared the photo on Facebook, saying the man paid $540 in cash for all the girls' cookies so they could escape the cold outside a store near Greenville, South Carolina. She said she didn't get the man's name.


quote:

An indictment issued last week says McGowan, also known as "Fat," is one of several suspects in an ongoing drug investigation. It says he and 10 other people conspired to import drugs from Mexico in late 2018. The U.S. Attorney's Office says authorities are still searching for one of the suspects.


Come on man! I saw this initially on Reddit and thought that was quite the nice gesture. It still is just a shame he had that background.

Girl Scouts should give back that drug money.

I can’t wait for the DEA to demand the Girl Scouts hand over the cash for “evidence.”

Girl scouts have to answer for the drug money they took.

They'll learn a valuable lesson in civil asset forfeiture.

Maybe he was just arrested for having several cases of thin mints?

I mean they're pretty much crack anyway.

I figured it would have been a weed dealer looking to sell munchies to his customers, not a fentanyl dealer.

The only thing I know for sure is that the scout mom must have been hot.

This looks like an average family on today’s commercials.

The real crime is the Girl Scouts charging more for shipping cookies than the cookies.

Real story is the fentanyl was in the thin mint boxes and the cocaine was in the tagalongs. GS are just a supply chain for the cartel

The Boy Scouts have a Merit Badge for that. Equality!
