True Love.....
On January 4, 2020 at around 7:04 pm, Mr. Raymond Pace called dispatch wanting to report a stolen laptop computer.
When Officer Steven Debord arrived to take the report, an intoxicated Mr. Pace stated that he wanted to go to jail and needed to be locked up for 5 months, and asked if assault on a police officer would get him 5 months. Officer Debord advised Mr. Pace that he didn't want to do that, and instead suggested that they talk about whatever issues he was having. Mr. Pace agreed and invited Officer Debord into his home.
Once inside, Mr. Pace told Officer Debord that he needed to go to jail for 5 months because his girlfriend was in jail for for 5 months and he wanted to be there with her so she wouldn't be stressing out. Pace again asked if if assault would get him 5 months and shoved Officer Debord's shoulder. Officer Debord advised Pace not to do that again, and suggested that Pace go to bed and sleep off whatever alcohol he had consumed.
Pace continued to insist on going to jail, reaching under the couch and pulling out a box containing a baggie filled with suspected methamphetamine, several items of drug paraphernalia, including what Pace claimed was meth residue on a spoon. Officer Debord placed Pace under arrest.
BUT WAIT, IT GETS BETTER...
While in handcuffs, Mr. Pace showed Officer Debord a storage shelf where he had another small plastic baggie that Pace claimed was heroin. Pace also showed Officer Debord where his "rigs" were.
Officer Debord took possession of the syringes, drug paraphernalia, and 23.8 grams of Methamphetamine and 1.1 grams of heroin;
and took Mr. Pace to jail.
