Teacher charged in coke buy; kids, goats involved

A Rochester, Minn., elementary school teacher was charged Thursday for buying cocaine from a police informant while two young children and two goats waited in a car for him, police said.

John Joseph DeRouin, 51, of Dover, Minn., is charged with third-degree possession of cocaine for the May 5 buy at a St. Charles, Minn., gas station. He is a fourth-grade teacher at Saint Francis of Assisi School, a part of the Rochester Catholic School system. Principal Barb Plenge said he’s been at the school for more than a decade.

Plenge said DeRouin was placed on administrative leave at the end of the 2009-2010 school year, about the time police said he bought the cocaine. She declined to say why DeRouin was placed on leave because it is a personnel matter.
--snip--

The officer saw DeRouin standing near a station wagon with the children and goats inside, according to the criminal complaint. DeRouin got into the informant’s vehicle. One of the children got out of the station wagon and went to DeRouin, who got out of the informant’s vehicle with the bag in-hand.

edit to add link. I have an unusually large case of dumbass this morning:

3. LOL
Like a guy had goats in a car. LOL

Although in that case it might not have been targeted justice since due process seems to be observed in that story.

Of coarse if they tried to hang the threat of such a thing, then would that be for justice?

Proof, and trip wire.


Note in my past I have probably done similiar things. I think that is why they have due process and statue of limitations.

8. So did Bill Clinton, and George Bush.
Edited on Wed Aug-11-10 11:59 AM by RandomThoughts
What is your point?


Although when Bill Clinton said he did not inhale, he was probably making a refrence that undercover cops make when simulating drug use.

Interesting in his phrasing of that. I would guess he used trip wires also.

12. If you were making your comment to the OP
I really had no point except to offer a wtf to involving goats in a drug deal. Common cattle I understand, but goats?



They always struck me as being more partial to grass.
