Inmate Had $170K, Guns, Plasma TV, Fridge in Cell

...in Brazil, where the nuts come from! (with apologies to Brandon Thomas!)

SAO PAULO, Brazil AP- Officials in northeastern Brazil say they confiscated the equivalent of more than $170,000 and two pistols from an imprisoned drug trafficker whose jail cell was equipped with a plasma TV set, a refrigerator and gym equipment.


All the comforts of home! Throw in some conjugal visits and I am so there!

Jose Francisco Leite, head of the state of Bahia's Prison Affairs Department, said the "posh prison life" Genilson Lins da Silva led came to an abrupt end on Monday when police raided his cell as part of a statewide crackdown on drug trafficking.


Always a spoilsport somewhere!

(I must admit, that when I saw “inmate”, “cash” and “Fridge” in the headline, I thought of William “Cold Cash” Jefferson!)

This guy could be the poster boy for Handgun Control, Inc:
When guns are outlawed, only inmates will have guns!

Heh.
