Meth-maker's proudly displayed GED told cops who ran drug lab
A man who hung his GED certificate above his methamphetamine-cooking rig, then fled police by taking to the woods with a tent and a bowl of macaroni and cheese, pleaded guilty today to charges that could send him to prison for years.
John Thomas Nelon Jr., 29, of Vinton, pleaded guilty in federal court in Roanoke to charges that he manufactured meth and that he did so in the presence of a minor. U.S. District Judge Samuel Wilson ordered a pre-sentencing report. A sentencing date was not immediately available.
Nelon made his meth in a garage, where he and his 15-year-old girlfriend also lived, Assistant U.S. Attorney Andrew Bassford said. When an anonymous tip led to a police search in May, officers found meth-making equipment and ingredients. Officers also found Nelon’s GED certificate hanging above the gear, leaving little doubt who they were looking for, Bassford said.
Neighbors around the garage, located in the 100 block of Vinton’s West Madison Avenue, were evacuated as coverall-wearing officers cleared potentially hazardous chemicals from the site.
Nelon, having heard about the search, went into hiding in the Bedford County woods, Bassford said. But he took scant provisions and when his girlfriend went to resupply him, officers were watching.
Nelon tried to run, but "he did not outrun the police dog," Bassford said.
Nelon chuckled at Bassford’s account and told the judge he did not dispute it.

ahahah I like this guy. I just wonder if his 15year old girlfriend was hooked on the meth he was cooking or working on her GED as well.

I would love to hear his accent when he said he didn't dispute it.
Also, I bet the study enhancing properties of meth earned him that GED.

amusing story...the macaroni bit was too much
as for the 15 year old girl.....they know better.I doubt she was "preyed on"...hell,some of these trashy unfortunate girls are trained by their crank head mas to start hooking up with guys as young as 12.

I can only imagine how difficult running from the cops through the woods WITH a bowl of mac&cheese would be. I just wonder if it was the stove top kind or the microwave easy mac?
And if this guy was on meth how could he NOT outrun a dog?
