Posh prison

If this was prison, lock me up.

Brazilian drug trafficker Genilson Lins da Silva had it pretty good in the Sao Paulo slammer.

How good? Very good.

We’re talking a prison cell equipped with a plasma TV set, refrigerator and gym equipment. Oh, and did I mention the $170,000 and two pistols he also had stashed away?

The good times ended Monday when da Silva’s suite, I mean cell, was raided. Wonder how long it took prison officials to notice that their prize inmate was enjoying a little more than “three hots and a cot.”

And here comes the funny part. According to the Associated Press, “authorities have ordered an investigation to find out how Silva got the money and guns into his cell.”

Gee, whiz. I’m gonna go way out on a limb here and suggest …
BIG-TIME BRIBERY AND CORRUPTION?

Just a thought.

And then there are the two BPD officers who spent TWO MONTHS investigating hootchy-kootchy girl. Whew! And some people think taxpayers' money is wasted.
