'Cocaine brick' turns to crumbly cheese

Independent Online
6 December 2005


Memphis, Tennessee - A woman allegedly tried to hire a hitman to rob and kill some men who she believed had a brick of cocaine in their house, police said. However, the white block turned out to be cheese, and the hitman for hire was an undercover police officer.

The woman was in the Memphis home of the four intended victims last week when she mistook a block of queso fresco cheese for cocaine - inspiring the alleged idea to hire someone to break into the home, take the drugs, and kill the men, police say.

Jessica Sandy Booth, 18, was arrested over the weekend and remains in jail with bond set at $1-million on four charges of attempted murder and four counts of soliciting a murder, The Commercial Appeal reported on Tuesday.

An informant described the plot to police, who arranged a meeting between Booth and the undercover officer.

The undercover officer gave Booth some nonfunctioning handguns, bought ammunition for her because she was too young, and the two proceeded to the home under police surveillance.

Booth told the officer that any children inside the house old enough to testify would have to be killed, police said.

A search of the home with the permission of the occupants revealed no drugs - only the white, crumbly cheese common in Mexican cuisine.

"Four men were going to lose their lives over some cheese," said Lieutenant Jeff Clark, who heads Project Safe Neighbourhoods.

dumb. that's all i have to say. fucking dumb. If she didn't KNOW they had a kilo, she was obviously not trusted enough to let SEE a kilo. If they left it out, in front of her, it must have been worth nothing. She obviously wasn't trustworthy, and i'm sure the said people with cheese knew that.... She should've thought about that. Now the dumb girl will be in prison forever, good job braingal.
 
why is it that everytime someone tries to hire a hitman, they end up talking to an undercover cop? i guess it all depends on what kind of cheese it is, though. couldn't see going through this trouble for some munster, that's for sure.
 
To kill 4 people for 500g of coke takes a pretty vicious & callous person. The fact that she was 18 actually makes me think of it as being much worse.

Booth told the officer that any children inside the house old enough to testify would have to be killed, police said.

The bitch is obviously psychopathic/sociopathic and deserves to be locked up for good, for the saftey of all decent people. People like that don't get rehabilitated because they have a basic personality disorder that prevents them feeling any empathy for anyone else - best to just lock her up and throw away the key (it very rare for me to feel that about someone, but she really is the worst example of a himan being that I've heard about for a while)
 
That'd really really sad, she was only eighteen and prepared to kill four people and any kids in the house. It's terribly sad, but she is probably much better off where she is now(even though the drugs in jail are usually just as available and just as good...)
 
^ ^ Well pretty soon they will release her, in order to make room for some pot-grower or something... so soon she will be back on the streets where she will have to suffer with the poor quality of drugs on the outside.
 
what a moron. i hear about police posing as hitmen all the time, which begs the question - how do these people end up hiring police? i can't imagine most of the people who want to hire hitmen know any, so do they just ask friends who inform cops, or what?
 
I saw the brick on CNN a few minutes ago. It did look kinda like a Kilo. Right shape and white anyway.
Peace
 
Yeah, i always wondered why all the times you hear about someone hiring a hitman, it was a cop posing as a hitman. Do cops hang out at shady bars undercover and pose as hitmen all the time or something? Or, I guess, it could just be that the only times we hear about people hiring hitmen are then times when it was someone who didn't really know what they were doing and they ended up hirig a cop. I don't know, there's gotta be real hitmen out there, I guess they just don't get caught close to as easily as naive people who get set up by the cops...

i think you're confused.

they didn't have any coke. they had a block of queso fresco cheese. it's a mexican cheese that comes in a roundish block.

she saw the block of cheese and thought it was a block of cocaine.

and just for the record........actually queso fresco isn't "crumbly", if i'm not getting my cheeses confused, it's actually very soft and smooth and melts very easily.

stupid bitch was probably tweeked out....
 
fucking kill and execute the stupid bitch.

18 years old ;\ i bet she was listening to 3-6 mafia song "kickin in the doors i make them bitches hit tha floor fo keys"

whatta idiot....she heard some stupid rappers talk about it and thought she was hard cause she's from tha "M-Town" and "kickin in the door i make them bitches hit tha' floor fo' keys"

hahahhahahahaha idiots i hate people who listen to rap and then try to act it out....like its cool to rob people or something??? ya that really gets you somewhere...
 
Wow. You assumed six things at once.

It's better to hire a cop to hit men then to hire a cop to hitman
