Bradenton man arrested, but thanks deputies for finding long-lost bong October 16, 2010 - bradenton.com
MANATEE — A Bradenton man was arrested Friday morning, but he still thanked deputies for finding a bong during a vehicle search that he thought he’d lost seven years ago, according to a Manatee County Sheriff’s Office report.
Mark Fiasco and Matthew Hawley were pulled over at midnight for a license plate light being out. The report said the car had also been involved in a previous drug case in which an arrest was made.
When deputies first approached Fiasco, 23, he provided an address that was not listed on his license. He was then asked if there were any drugs in the car and he said no, according to the report.
A search of the vehicle revealed about 29.3 grams of marijuana in the trunk, the report said; it also revealed a bong inside a plastic shopping bag.
After being read their rights, both Fiasco and Hawley, 23, admitted to knowing the marijuana was in the trunk and that they had purchased it earlier in the evening with the intent to smoke it later, according to the report.
Fiasco then told deputies that he had been looking for the bong for the past seven years. In the report, he also said that he bought the bong for $150 and assumed a roommate had stolen it.
Fiasco has been charged with possession of a controlled substance, possession with the intent to use and failure to change an address on a license. He is being held in Manatee County jail on a $1,240 bond.
Hawley has been charged with possession of a controlled substance and possession with the intent to use. He is also in Manatee County jail on a $1,120 bond.

If its never been used Obviously lol...remember bongs are for tobacco use only children... and the only reason why bong's are still made today is because people still smoke tobacco out of them I thought everyone knew this

They can still take the bong away even if it's never been used. Whether it's paraphernalia or not is up to the police officer's discretion. Only way to get out of it is to get a good lawyer.

haha, this.
this article is worded so strangely. "admitted to knowing the marijuana was in the trunk and that they had purchased it earlier in the evening with the intent to smoke it later, according to the report" what else were they going to do with it stick it up their ass?

Sell it?
Which is why he admitted he was gonna smoke all that shit himself
Still... you have to be a real fuckin stoner to "lose" a BONG in a car, let alone lose it for 7 fucking years.Im sure it took the cops a whole 10 minutes to find it.
I dont know what hes so happy about.Its not like they are gonna give it back to his dumbass.

It's so ridiculous how they can charge you with several different things, that are all really the same thing.
I mean seriously, who is going to just possess drugs for the sake of possessing them, without using them?
I wonder if they hadn't admitted that they were planning on smoking it later if they would have just been charged with possession of a controlled substance.

Yep. I got a brand-new one hitter taken this way because it "smelled like marijuana."
