Bottom’s Up???

Guards 'impressed by smuggler's bottom'

A police spokesman has admitted to being impressed with how much contraband a prisoner was able to smuggle up his bottom.

Gavin Stanger, 24, of East Wenatchee had been booked into Chelan County Regional Justice Center on a charge of disorderly conduct, The Wenatchee World reports.

He surrendered the items to guards after they found a plastic bag and duct tape in his toilet. Guards had previously found no items on Stanger during a pat down and strip search.

The contraband included a bottle of tattoo ink, eight tattoo needles, a cigarette lighter, rolling papers, a one-inch smoking pipe, a small bag of suspected marijuana and a bag of tobacco the size of a golf ball

Wenatchee Police Department spokesman Sgt John Kruse said: "We were all wondering, 'How do you put all that up there?'. The tobacco was pretty impressive; it was a good ounce."

Stanger, who was due to serve three days for his original offence, has now been charged with introduction of contraband into the jail.
