7/23/2010 Lisa and Hank Croslin Arrested

[dodie20]

Yup, and all that whining about having no money to put in the commisary accounts, or phone cards -- yet they obviously have money for drugs...but not a car to look for a job.

:loser:s

& they said were eating noodles, to help save money for visits & calls. This just makes me really mad. Just thinking of the childhood their kids had, makes me shiver. no food, but plenty of dope.

 

[Whisperer]

I meant nine convictions and imprisoned...not arrests...lol. Now, that's alot of drugs..

 

[dodie20]

I think LE is getting whoever they want, they are easy targets. The bookings tonight surrounding Hanks and Lisa are Old Timers, more with the same charges up in age. It's like a reunion. Sadly, the parents have helped in this case a lot to teach their children to become who they are today. JMO

& isn't it amazing how easy these people make a cop's job? can't get answers in a murder investigation? just go bust them for drugs.

The drain on society due to drugs is astonishing. We have the prisoners, the prisons, the girls they impregnate, welfare, social security (which most wind up getting due to addiciton). Everytime one paroles, the wife or girl gets preggers...and then the welfare, medical, etc continues. Twenty years ago, a prison out here was 110 million a yeard to run. It may be double that now. There are 32. You do the math. Californai economy is driven into the hole due to housing these leeches. I am disgusted with it all.

Looks like Florida is about the same.

Boy they just don't learn do they?

Not sure how much dope costs these days -- never want to know. But I can't imagine the childhood either. My parents drank high-balls on Friday nights and that was about it I should consider myself lucky not to have had parents like Lisa and Hank.

good golly miss molly. y'all woke me up with this hank & lisa action.

let's hear it for our scantastics! :applause: :applause: :applause:

Regarding druggies imprisoned and them starting to wise up:

1. It takes appr. nine arrests
2. or them to reach 50 yrs., whatever occurs first.
3. or they die

for them to finally see that drugs aren't working out too well for them.

Ya get well or ya die..

I thought Hank was going to turn over a new leaf?

:laugh:

just looking at it in my smallish town, is scary. Pregnant girls with BFs or husbands in jail, no jobs, school dropouts, all on drugs, great grandparents raising the babies, but the mamas keep the welfare for themselves & the new bf, trading in the foodstamps for cigs & beer at gas stations...I've seen it all. & they all turn around & get pregnant again & again.

Some say that and I think they mean it at the time. They do want to start over. You have to be strong and have a conviction of never taking another drug in your lifetime..an impossible task for most.

Hank has never been a strong person. He has backed down to his children everytime. Lisa is an addict, it appears (at least by looking at her) she likes speed. I think Hank or Lisa could overdose at any time if given a chance.

With the amount of stress these two are under, it would take two people of steel to not want drugs or any relief from the world around them. Maybe being incarcerated is the only way they will know how to stop for awhile. I feel sorry for them...I do.

 

[Emma Peel]

maybe LE needed to lock up Hank & Lisa to:
1) keep them from improving Misty's morale with "hi beautiful" and "yer hair's so purty" visits
2) get the philosopher Hank 24/7 counseling work with Tommy & Ronald
3) lure Timmy to Florida
4) cut Lindsy a break so she doesn't have to worry about the grandparents whining.

I think there's a quite few more missing yet and we all know who they are.

I wonder if Joe passed an LDT or something.

Think Flora needs to pay a visit to NG? Or maybe she should just c'mon down and spend a week with GGMS so she can visit her fam...

Wasn't it Padilla that tried to weave the "they are good people in a bad situation" fairytale about Lisa and Hank? I ponder what he thinks NOW...

 

[Emma Peel]

wow, they won't be in the gallery for moral suppport for Tommy or Misty's court dates now.

somebody stop me from posting bond for them. oh I feel so badly for these two.

I'm sure it was undercover that got them in there. They were marked. It's good it's not pills...

 

[Whisperer]

Now that's an idea Emma..

 

[Whisperer]

Wasn't it Padilla that tried to weave the "they are good people in a bad situation" fairytale about Lisa and Hank? I ponder what he thinks NOW...

I bet he still thinks the same. Padilla is a softy and very generous to a fault. He does lots of things to help people out in the community...that never makes the news.

Lisa's the one that worries me, the most. I don't see that she wants to clean up, & if she's incarcerated for awhile, she's gonna go crazy without her dope. Hank, actually seems like he wants out of the cycle. & it's just easier for some people, so he may do alright. For over a year, I've been watching this family disintegrate, & it IS SAD. This family has managed to stick together, all of these years, but I think they're almost done. I really do.... because what's left to hang on to?

 

[Meagain]

Didn't Hank mention in one of the tapes that jail wasn't so bad - get meals, housing, etc.? Preferrable to their current situation in that one room?

They probably just gave up.

 

[Whisperer]

I see a similarity between Hank Sr and Hank Jr. They are both weak and led around by their noses. The are both co-dependents and unable to help themselves. They are both followers and find it difficult to say no to anything or anyone. Their hindsight is 20/20 but they have no ability to stop themselves from bad decisions in a real time setting.

And they got money to buy drugs, where?? Unemployment check??

:loser::loser:

Our tax dollars at work! :sick:
