The Villages Woman: She Methed Up and Ran a Stop Sign
Ah, the Villages, Florida. A peaceful, yet wild retirement community where golf carts and cars alike are adorned with symbolic loofas. And if the swingers parties aren’t wild enough, just invite this lady. Meet Marjorie Martinka, a 53-year-old villager from the historic side of town. She got herself into just a bit of trouble with the local police. You see, Marjorie was cruising around in her golf cart when she blew right through a stop sign. Look, you can sing, you can swing, but don’t ever blow a stop sign in the Villages.
Now, according to The Villages News, Marjorie isn’t a stranger to breaking the law. This Pennsylvania native has a rap sheet, including a past DUI while driving… Yep, you guessed it… A golf cart. So, when the cops pulled her over, they checked her Florida ID and knew they had a repeat offender on their hands.
The Villages Woman Arrested:
However, this wouldn’t be much of a story if all she did was blow a stop sign in the Villages. See, the police called in the K-9 unit and the dog did its thing and alerted them to something suspicious in the golf cart. They searched and found a clear plastic baggie with some meth tucked under a towel! They also found the meth sidekick too. A glass pipe. Looked like Marjorie was ready for a party. One of those wild parties in the Villages.
This wasn’t Marjorie’s first rowdy rodeo with the law either. Just last year, she had a run-in involving her boyfriend that ended in her arrest. This time, she got slapped with charges for possession of methamphetamine and possession of drug paraphernalia. She got booked into Lake County Jail but was back on the streets after posting a $3,500 bond. Now who’s ready to take another swing at things here in the Villages?
