Florida Woman Named Crystal Methvin Arrested For... Possession Of Crystal Meth

Ellis Dee had no comment.

Seriously, what were her parents thinking when they named her?

“Crystal – that’s a nice name!”

I strongly suspect it’s purely a made up name.

She was arrested with no ID, was asked her name, she made one up.

Not the best idea since she’ll have to give a real name, etc. to make bail and such. But since when are meth users great thinkers?

Supposedly there’s a guy from the PNW named Al Cohol who was arrested for drunk driving, but I’ve never been able to confirm it actually happened.

However, there’s a real-life meth dealer named Walter White.

Wonder what they arrested Harry Hooker for?

And then there’s the saga of Daisy Cowit

These headlines are a popular setup for a specific variety of meme, but I can’t think of one that fits here.

She’s 40?

I don’t think the term crystal meth was widely known then.

Drugs went by other names. Coke, Crack, speed, etc.
The slang changes from generation to generation.
