POLICE: PRESCRIPTION FRAUD UNCOVERED
• A Centralia couple was arrested last night in Chehalis after allegedly attempting to trick a pharmacist into filling a prescription for 60 hydrocodone pills. Police were called about 4 p.m. by an employee at Rite Aid who had checked with the supposed prescribing clinic and learned no prescription had been written in the name they were given, according to the Chehalis Police Department. Officers were told the woman’s son was going to pick up the pills and waited outside the South Market Boulevard store, Sgt. Brian Hickey said. The couple was stopped after leaving and the officer recognized the driver, Carrie J. Powell, as someone who had been in trouble before for similar activity, Hickey said. Powell, 27, and Mitchell T. Kimbrel, 28, were booked into the Lewis County Jail for a violation of the legend drug act, according to police.

• Centralia police were called to an apartment on the 500 block of Woodland Avenue about 1:20 p.m. yesterday when a resident returned home from lunch to discover his 60-inch television was missing. A neighbor had seen a blond woman carrying a TV in the area about an hour earlier, according to the Centralia Police Department.
CALL ABOUT SUSPICIOUS CHARACTER IN PARKING LOT LEADS TO ARREST

Officers contacted the suspect sitting in a car and discovered the 1985 Saab 900 was stolen out of Seattle, according to the Chehalis Police Department. Shane R.

ALLEGED DEATH THREAT

The suspect, a Centralia man, was not arrested but the case is being referred to prosecutors for a possible charge of felony harassment, according to the Centralia Police Department. The case involved a phone call in which he told the victim he would kill them, although he didn’t say how or why, Sgt. Brian Warren said. Further details were not readily available.
@Soaper…Why are you talking about free speech? If Sharyn ever decides to ban DCE (or anybody), the First Amendment has nothing to say about it. What so many people seem to forget is that the First Amendment prevents the Government from restricting speech; Sharyn isn’t the Government, she’s running her own website and allowing people to comment out of the goodness of her heart. No one has the right to just turn up anywhere they feel and start babbling, and expect Freedom of Speech protection. Sharyn can shut any of us down at will; that is HER Freedom of Speech.
I will make one more comment and put the truth to rest. The United Nations is stepping up to the plate and trying to block Washington new marijuana law. The UN is Agenda 21, don’t think so here is that article. http://www.infowars.com/united-nations-threatens-colorado-washington-state-over-marijuana-decriminalization-laws/ Tin Foil Hat This !
Glen Beck This! Agenda 21 is alive and well http://whatisagenda21.net/ Do you see all of those signs in people’s yards that say don’t take my land in Thurston County.. Let me guess those thousands of signs are a Conspiracy? Tin Foil hat that!
Good point, Ellen, since we all know only Glen(n) Beck,”tin foil hat conspiracy theorists” and “tea baggers” lie. Thanks for the objectivity.
I check in regularly because Sharyn’s coverage is often more clear and readable than other sources. The comments, not so much.
I would like to hear from various voices that give insight into the community, but when a few use this forum to promote “tin foil hat” conspiracy theories, Glen Beck’s disgusting, disrespectful “Ebay auction”, tea-bagging lies (Agenda 21), etc., I kind of give up and read it for the laughs.
I’m not referring to people whose opinions I just do not agree with (which can be a great way to learn new things.) I’m talking about claims that have no facts to back them up, or are based on falsehoods and disorderly thinking.
I’m with sunshine girl – It would be good to see some thought provoking comments that are more about the news and less about people’s personal agendas and whatever single issue got stuck in their head.
Yes, Free Speech is a b*tch isn’t it?
I agree Sunshinegirl. It began as a good blog and now its just random babblings, cop haters, DCE haters and way off topic.
sunshinegirl says I miss the old gang and the people who actually are proud to live in Lewis co. not just looking to tear it down at every freaking opportunity just to see themselves in print.
Sunshine Girl try FaceBook if your looking for your old friends
I know I speak and understand English , but I did not get any of the comment made by DCE this time. It is also getting harder and harder to get interested in this column anymore when this assinine crap is going on. I miss the old gang and the people who actually are proud to live in Lewis co. not just looking to tear it down at every freaking opportunity just to see themselves in print. I miss the comments that were thought provoking, not just weird, need my meds adjusted, comments that are the same over, and over and over ad nauseum. This shit is just sad and old.
Mr Hater opps “Rogers”
For a person who claims hes damn near a lawyer on this blog site.
Really I made this claim? could you direct me to that post…
For a person who claims hes damn near a lawyer on this blog site, the “criminal intent to steal” comment just put you back to goat farmer status DCE. Not a crime, not close to a crime and like Mendez said, you would claim rape or harassment if Chehalis PD contacted you for looking inside windows of cars. Pick one battle and stick with it Napolean.
Because looking in the windows of cars in and of itself does not amount to probable cause of criminal intent. It doesn’t even come close to the “substantial step” required. Interesting that you even bring up that point because I think your tune would be slightly different if a cop ever dared approach you for looking a car window.
Chehalis police were called to the 1600 block of Northwest Louisiana Avenue about 3:30 p.m. yesterday regarding someone wandering around and looking in windows of cars in Wal-Mart’s parking lot.
OK now, where are the videos that Wal-Mart has of their security system. Charge him with criminal intent to steal also. But this will never happen since law enforcement does not have the funding to conduct a real investigation. The Economy has been sold to China, we can expect more and more of this in Centralia as the Worlds Banks Implode. Do you Like the Hyper Inflation Yet?
