CHARLOTTE, N.C. (Dec. 8) - Authorities have charged a North Carolina woman with selling moonshine out of her day care center.
The Charlotte Observer reported Tuesday that North Carolina Alcohol Law Enforcement arrested a 57-year-old woman last week at Parkview Community Center in Charlotte.
Agents said children were in the day care center when they sent in an undercover agent to buy two gallons of moonshine.
The woman told the paper she was set up by a neighbor. She said she was just holding a package for a man in exchange for $80 and didn't even know what was in it.
Agents also arrested an 82-year-old man and charged him with making the moonshine. Authorities seized more than 80 gallons of moonshine from the man.

That's a really really flimsy excuse. Was the $80 a loan? If so, then why take an unknown for collateral to that alleged loan? It stinks to high heaven.
I'm a rambler
I'm a gambler
I'm a long ways from home
And if ya don't like me
Well leave me alone
I'll eat when i'm hungry
And i'll drink when i'm dry
An the moonshine don't kill me
I'll live till i die

A bit of fluff added by those "law enforcin' folk to encourage brain dead readers to believe that this woman really ought to be drawn and quartered.
Only the govermint is allowed to make money off the misery of others.

Nope, just owned one. Worked them suckers 'til they dropped dead, froze 'em into logs and used 'em for tunnel supports.
