BERRYVILLE, Ark. (AP) - The Berryville mayor says marijuana found in his pickup truck last weekend did not belong to him and he hopes the owner will come forward "and do the right thing."
Mayor Timothy McKinney was arrested on misdemeanor charges of driving while intoxicated, possession of a controlled substance, and speeding after a traffic stop by a Carroll County sheriff's deputy Sunday on Highway 62 outside Berryville.
The sheriff says the deputy stopped the truck for speeding, gave McKinney a field sobriety test that the mayor failed and found a small amount of marijuana in the truck. McKinney was booked into the county jail and later released on $1,486 bond.
McKinney has been mayor since 1991. He said he routinely has been tested for drug use for his job as a lineman for Entergy Arkansas, and he doesn't use drugs. He apologized for the embarrassment he has caused the city and its residents.
An arraignment date was set for May 7 in Berryville District Court.

Such a crock of shit.
If you or I tryed to say that this is not my pot and ask that the owner come forward and do the right thing they would laugh right in our faces.
If it wasnt his then why is it in his truck?
Mayor or not,admit it.

It's not like they dropped charges because he said it wasn't his. People are laughing in his face.

Actually it was my weed. Maybe I should come forward and "do the right thing".

It drinks the alcohol and abstains from the weed or else it gets the hose again. -Chemy
The difference between the substances doesn't matter. This is a war on consciousness, on our right to the very essence of what we are. With no control over that, we have no need to speak of freedom or a free society. -fireseed
"If we are going to have a war on marijuana, the least we can do is pull the sick and the dying off the battlefield." -Neal Levine (MPP)
I find the whole "my drug should be legal but yours should be illegal" mindset disgusting and hypocritical. It's what George Bush and company do when they drink a cocktail and debate the best way to imprison marijuana users. -Diploid

Nothing, but I'm soon to become the deputy mayor and I'll be in charge of testing all drugs found in Berryville.
