Turns Out Florida State QB Deondre Francois Isn’t A Drug Kingpin After All

Rnewtonblock7 years ago

From The Orlando Sentinel:

Deondre Francois became the subject of a two-month drug investigation after Tallahassee police received a tip and believed the Florida State quarterback possessed marijuana with the intent to sell…But when TPD concluded its investigation of Francois last Thursday, an executed search warrant conducted at his apartment yielded just 17 grams of marijuana.

Nothing like good old-fashioned police work! Two months of investigating Deondre Francois and the Tallahassee Police came away with a measly 17 grams of weed. 17 grams, that’s it? These guys spent two entire months investigating Tallahassee’s Walter White and they came away with an amount of weed that can get lost in my couch. 17 grams is nothing. I know dudes who buy 17 grams of weed whenever their weed stash dips below 17 grams.

TPD based the warrant to raid his trap house on evidence they found while searching his garbage. That evidence was: plastic bags with cannabis residue, innards of a blunt cigar, a drug-testing cup, and a few bottles of prescription pain killers. Just an FYI, that’s not a drug dealer’s trash. That’s everyone at Florida State’s trash.

If I went back to FSU right now, took a walk down my old street Westridge Drive, and began inspecting everyone’s garbage, I’d probably be able to use the “cannabis residue” from eight neighbor’s trash to compile 17 grams of weed.

And what they found in Francois’s garbage isn’t even that bad for Tally. Most people’s garbage bags would’ve contained at least one plastic vile with powder residue and a few Plan-B packages. God Dammit I miss that place.

All that said it’s certainly possible he was selling weed. But that’s not really what matters here. What matters is that 17 grams isn’t enough to keep my boy Deondre from starting the season opener at home versus Virginia Tech on September 3rd. That’s all I care about. And maybe that’s all TPD cares about too.

Scalp ‘em Noles! .
