Christmas in Grinch City

Recently Ex-PH2 wrote of Christmas and Grinches and commenters made it abundantly clear that Grinches are no less despised by TAH followers than Stolen Valor thieves. Well, coming out of Polk County, Florida is a story of a Grinch who is also an alleged thief of the most despicable intent and unbelievable proportions. According to Sheriff Grady Judd, his department is holding Tammy Strickland/Rivera of Eagle Lake on 166 felony and 28 misdemeanor charges involving theft by fraud from the county’s Toys for Tots program. Due to the high number of offenses, bail was set at $180,000 which apparently is unattainable for Strickland/Rivera in spite of her being the proprietor of a tax preparation service and driver of a Cadillac. From the Lakeland Ledger:

Judd expressed unabashed glee several times during the news conference at Strickland’s arrest. He noted Strickland told arresting deputies, “I guess I’m going someplace else,” when informed of her bond amount.
“Yeah, Tammy, you’re going someplace else. You’re going to where we lock up Grinches. You’re going to Grinch city,” Judd said.

Perhaps during her Christmas stay at Grinch City, Tammy will come to feel the embracing warmth of the holidays as other inmates such as Big Tonya and Mumu Mama teach her the finer points of how they always get such satisfaction out of their very own Toys are Twats program.

    Why does it always have to be Florida? Is this just the stupid zone or what? We are not all this way, maybe it is too much sunshine that brings out the stupid? I just don’t know anymore!

    1. Wilted Willy; As a transplanted Floridian, (of over 50 years),I can explain the “why Florida”, question:
      If you look at a map of the US, you can see that it vaguely resembles a funnel with an offset discharge end. As you know, things settle. In our case, down here, the dregs of the country settle in the funnel and wind up in the discharge end, where they find themselves in Florida. No place in the country attracts as many low life types as we do. If you will look closer at each case, you will find that few of them are “Native Floridians”, but transplants who, unlike me, came here looking for a free ride.

        Apparently, some of these weirdos float north. Ask an Alaskan about the term “End of the road-er”.

        Thanks Frankie, I too am a transplant from Colorado, going on 40 years now. I hate to say it, but most of the idiots I run into are from the north, or Yankees as we like to call them. My wife is a native and her whole family are wonderful people. Let’s deport all of the stupid?

          “Let’s deport all of the stupid to Cuba?”

          FIFY.

      What Frankie is saying (in a nice way) is stuff like this always happens in Florida cause Florida looks like a limp dick hanging between the legs of America./smile

      Merry Christmas.

      1. Haywire Angel

        Claw, thanks for the laugh this morning! Now, every time I look at a map of Florida, I will think of this. Outstanding!!!!

      2. 11B-Mailclerk

        Homer: Florida, America’s wang.

      3. Claw, with a piss stream heading down toward Cuba.

    She must be the Official Toy Provider to the DRG…

    “satisfaction out of their very own Toys are Twats program.”

    “satisfaction out of their very own Twats for Toys program.”

    Fixed it for ya Poe. Merry Christmas.

    What I learned from this story is how Toys for Tots works. I don’t like it, even a little bit. It’s based on trust and honesty. Screw that.

  5. Veritas Omnia Vincit

    Rat bastard shit bag….here’s hoping she gets a nice beating for Christmas…stealing from kids…needy kids at that…

    The problem with volunteer organizations of every size is they rely on basic human honesty and decency…and not everyone possesses those traits….

    1. 2/17 Air Cav

      Some people make real sacrifices in order to provide a toy or two to Toys for Tots. It’s always the people with little, it seems, who watch out for those with less. And then skunks like this come along.

  6. It isn’t always Florida. It happens around here – people at the grocery store taking toys out of the donation bins instead of leaving an addition. Yes, they do get caught and they get fined, and they aren’t welcome in those stores, but for Pete’s sake, do they HAVE to do that at all?

    Some Grinchiebroad not far from here, who was running a toy donation program, was selling the donated toys and keeping the money, and had a storage unit full of donated stuff that she was selling on eBay. Yes, she got time in jail for that fraud. I don’t know if she’s out yet, or not. It was a few years ago.

    I just don’t get it.

  7. This wench has met her match in Sheriff Grady Judd. She will come to regret this effort to steal from children.
    I am about to have Sheriff Judd meet Kyle Barwan too. He is also doing some “Grinchish” things this Christmas season.

    1. Claw

      Kyle Barwan – The Dunking Bird Fraud.

      What kind of crap has that turd been up to lately?

      Is he still running his X-Box scams?

    “Judd expressed unabashed glee several times during the news conference at Strickland’s arrest.”

    Worth the price of admission right there!

  9. A Proud Infidel®™

    BITCH needs some serious jail time. She was stealing toys around Christmas time, thus I hope that makes her as popular as a pedophile in her cell block!

    1. Bill M

      Probably taking her key from Maduro in Venezuela.

  10. SFC D

    Wench is probably gonna sue the Sheriff for publicly shaming her. I say shame away, Sheriff, I’ll happily donate to your defense fund!

    1. Poetrooper

      SFC D, what do you suppose the odds are on her being able to find a sympathetic judge and jury?

      1. Claw

        Hopefully the same odds as Lawn Dart Danni has of finding a sympathetic judge and jury.

        Slim to none and Slims’ on vacation.

        1. SFC D

          Everyone here knows where to find sympathy.

  11. ex-OS2

    Bitch.

    I hope she enjoys lockup and daily assaults by the purple elephant.

    1. ex-OS2

      Fuck….

      Purple whale….

  12. Green Thumb

    If only Phildo had reached her sooner….

  13. Semper Idem

    So…THAT’S the lesbian version of Bubba, Tiny, and Thor. I had it guessed as Bull-Dyke Betty and Strap-On Sally, but I guess that varies from prison to prison.

    1. HMCS(FMF) ret

      That’s “Mr. Tiny”… and you forgot Julio… many in the join don’t forget Julio!

    I am now officially protected from you ultra right wing religo loons. Obama signed H.R. 1150 which amends the Frank Wolf International Religious Freedom Act of 1998 (IRFA).

    Thats right, you can no longer scare me into a safe space with your hate for Atheists. If it weren’t for all of your Christmas glee we would not have a need for a Grinch.

    I am protected, protected at last. “Its a Festivous for the rest of us!” and I can’t be shamed for it or you will be breaking the law.

    I feel so much safer now.

    Poe… you forgot to give a TAH shout out to “Strap-on Sally”… Tammy Strickland/Rivera is gonna love meeting ol’ “Strap-on” real soon~

    1. Poetrooper

      You ever met Big Tonya and Mumu Mama, Senior Chief? Either one of ’em sits on your face you’re guaranteed a concussion…

      And may require facial reconstruction.

    Whenever the story of wrong doings is about a woman, a picture needs to be posted.

    A picture helps muchly in determining guilt or innocence. Pretty women can’t be guilty, obviously. But this one? Yeah, she done it.
