Idiot Matt Moore tries to sell Cocaine to Cop

McMECHEN, WEST VIRGINIA – An off-duty deputy’s evening motorcycle ride last week unexpectedly led to felony drug charges against a Benwood man.

Matthew Charles Moore, 19, has been charged with one count of felony delivery of a controlled substance after he allegedly approached Marshall County Chief Deputy Kevin Cecil at a McMechen gas station and offered him drugs. On Friday, Cecil said, he was at the Exxon station on Marshall Street refueling his Harley-Davidson when he was approached by Moore.

“It was about 7 p.m.,” Cecil said. “I had been out riding and stopped to put gas in my motorcycle.”

After purchasing the gasoline inside the store, Cecil said, he got back on his bike and was about to leave when Moore began walking toward him. Cecil said he had seen Moore in the store a few minutes earlier and realized he did not recognize him.

“I was starting to put on my helmet when Moore walked past and asked me if ‘I wanted anything,’” said Cecil. “I asked him what he had, and he said he could sell me cocaine.”

Cecil said while he was purchasing the cocaine from Moore, another man, who did recognize him, walked past and said, “The sheriff’s department must be paying good.” Moore did not react to the comment and continued the drug transaction, according to Cecil.

After buying about a gram of cocaine, Cecil said he identified himself to Moore and held him at the station until detectives from the Marshall County Drug Unit arrived.

Moore was questioned by detectives at the scene and released, pending charges. On Thursday afternoon, Moore was formally charged; when detectives arrived at his residence, however, he could not be found.

“We believe he could have fled the area,” Cecil said. “Family members told detectives Moore said he was headed to California.”

The sheriff’s department has entered Moore’s picture and description into the FBI’s National Crime Information Center, and he is considered a fugitive, Cecil said.

Moore is 6 feet tall and weighs about 215 pounds. He has blue eyes and brown hair. His last known residence was at the Gateway Apartments in Benwood, but Cecil said he moves around frequently and does not maintain a single address.
 
dude this kid must of just not been listening when the guy walked pass and said that comment. or this kid is just a complete moron.
 
People got to make money any way they can. Starting a little one man business is certainly better than stealing or robbery. Mr. Moore was only offering a consensual monetary transaction for a product he owned. In my opinion, that is not a crime.

Whether you like it or not, selling cocaine is illegal and therefore a crime.
 
purple_cloud, crime can refer to a violation against ethical or moral laws, not necessarily the legal code.
 
I realize that, but in any sort of community with rules of conduct that happen to include drug laws - its still technically a crime in some sense of the word. The kid fucked up, it happens, but hopefully he'll learn to find better ways to make some cash that are less dangerous.
 
How can you have a problem with someone supplying drug users with what they want? Drug dealers are fuckin heroes, taking the risks for us that we need taken in order to get us high.
 
^ eh i wouldnt go THAT far. Maybe acid dealers or purveyors of fine quality MDMA though.

Opinions are like assholes though, cos everyone has one. Unofrtunately for this guy though, it's the government's opinion that drugs are BAAAAAAAYD, and it's BAAAAAAYD to be offering drugs to random deputies.
 
except for the fact that alot of lower class drug dealers rip you off, sell you the wrong shit, and their only intentions are making money off of you whether you live or die.

Not all drug dealers are this way, but I wouldnt call them all heros.
 
Hell of a way to have to try to start your adult life, a fugitive on the run. I'm sure this will really help his future chances of finding legitimate employment.. Though convicted or on the run, he'd probably be equally held back as a result of this.

I refer only to the archetype and definition of drug dealer; a role where one takes legal and mortal risks to transport drugs to the end users who have a right to and desire for said drugs.

Abuses of this role are common of course, and lots of reprehensible behavior takes place by people who fill the role. One can easily fault real examples of drug dealers for ripping people off. But I don't understand the attitude that would lead one to make disparaging marks about someone just for choosing to be a cocaine dealer.

This particular dealer was a total dipshit but he didn't do anything unethical in the story.

Turning yourself in isn't always in your best interests. It's easy to find employment with active warrants. If you're far enough away, many states won't bother to extradite you, so you can be pulled over for years on the other side of the country and get let go each time. Having been a fugitive prior to conviction doesn't show up on a criminal background check, either, so nobody will ever know how long you were on the run, or that you were on the run at all, when you're trying to find employment in the future.

I was once sentenced to 3 years probation with even more years of suspended prison time if I fucked up. I never would have completed 3 years without getting dirty UA's. I never showed up to the probation office for an initial meeting, and stayed a couple thousand miles away. I stayed a fugitive for almost 5 years, and when they finally extradited me back and got me into a probation violation hearing, they handed me a new probation order to agree to which had modified the terms from '3 years' of probation, to probation until 'all probation fees and fines' were paid. I got my tax return the next week and came back to my probation officer's office to tell her I was here to have my probation terminated. Never had to take a UA, never had to do shit for probation. Never ended up in and out of prison for years like I would have if I never ran...
 
That's like saying environmental lawyers do it for the money, not to save the environment. Drug dealing is not a high paying job. Street level drug dealers, which are the majority, make way less than minimum wage. Only a select few in each city are making over $100k a year, and that is shit pay for a high risk job.
