Irish grandmother gets away with cocaine possession at bingo hall.

Ah, the Irish.  Which, might I add, is where my own majestic and superior DNA comes from as well.  So I get to roll my eyes at this, at least:

Helen Heaphy’s number came up at the bingo hall. The prize was a trip to court.

The 50-year-old grandmother pleaded guilty Wednesday to two counts of possessing cocaine for sale or supply after Irish police caught her with the narcotic outside a Cork bingo hall.

It’s not that she got arrested; it’s that the Irish legal system allowed her off with a fine despite her rap sheet.  Hell, they let her back in the bingo hall.  Truly, the ways of my family’s ancestral people must be strange and confusing to the outsider…
