Well, not if we are to believe she is as streetwise as some think. ANYONE knows that, that money is G-O-N-E. Heck, if you are robbed not trying to make a drug deal there is only a very, very slight chence you will recieve your property back and much slimmer if it is cash. Any druggie knows that money was gone. What do you think Misty or the other 2 thought would happen when this was reported?
If someone at the complex reported it, why would you just throw any chance of getting your money/purse back by saying you were buying drugs? It just doesn't make sense. IMO.
It's hard to climb inside of the disordered mind of a "druggie" but it actually does make sense.
All any "druggie"
really knows is they wanna (need to) get high. When we are jonsin' we don't think all that clearly.. we just think about our next high, or the withdrawl we know is sure to come if we don't find a way, any way to get the money we need to get high.. to keep away the sweats and shakes. Any "druggie", any
street wise person knows that LE must find them in the possesion of drugs in order to charge them with a crime. Being a "druggie" (recovering) I can totally see how they would hope against hope they could maybe get their money back, it's worth a shot at least, it's not like they could be charged with a crime. And if it works they can avoid withdrawl. He!!, yeah! That's all a druggie thinks about when they are faced with no resources.
The people Misty surrounds herself with all seem to be rats.. will tell on her to keep themselves out of trouble. This isn't the first "friend" (or family member) that has turned on her since the start of this case. What I find to be really sad is she keeps trusting these same types of people like some day they will come through for her. The other thing that I find to be very sad is that any time a possible addiction is brought up people get all offended and outraged as if admitting she may be an addict would be the same as saying she's a murderer. Anyone can be an addict, it doesn't make them a bad person, it doesn't make them capable of murder. The denial of her involvment has gone so far that everything that doesn't reflect good upon her is seen as an insult, as "slamming" her. In real life that's what's called enabling and is healthy for nobody. You can't see the truth when it is clouded by the things you refuse to admit to yourself about a person. (this isn't directed at you, just in general) So she was trying to buy drugs, big deal.. it doesn't mean she killed or harmed this child. Does it?
She made a mistake, she seems to make a lot of them, growing up the way she did, it'd be a miracle if she didn't! I'd wanna be doping up right about now too if while already in the middle of being investigated, my husband left me (not to mention allegedly threatened to kill her too!), my mom was talking on TV saying she thinks I'm hiding something, then lands in jail with my scum-bag brother for stealing from a neighbor, then the one person I thought cared about me turns out to be a friggin' spy. Yup, sad to admit but I think I'd probably be out trying to buy drugs too.
