103. Drugs in a PT Cruiser: PTA Mom Gone Wild or Wrongly Accused?
Description
Kelli Peters was a volunteer director for the after school program at Plaza Vista School in Irvine, California. Kelli had chosen Irvine for her family because it was so safe. One day while working at the school, a 911 call came in to the police station reporting a dangerous driver in the Plaza Vista parking lot. The caller identified the driver as Kelli. Upon further investigation, it turned out Kelli was already inside the school at the time of the call. When the cop called to the scene searched her car, he found a large bag of marijuana and smaller bags of assorted pills. Kelli, of course, denied the drugs were hers. Even though this is not an uncommon response when caught with drugs, the cop believed her. But who would have wanted to accuse Kelli, PTA president and respected member of the community, of being a drug dealer? Listen now for part one of this truly stranger than fiction case.
