Paula Evans & Randy Lewis: Lesson In Stupidity
October 8, 2008 by Jaded
Bristol, TN–Just before 6:00 p.m. on SundaySunday reviews
, officers responded to a call of five people trapped in an overturned vehicle. When officers arrived, they found an upside-down minivan and the five occupants of the vehicle, alive and sitting by the road. Among the five were 43-year-old Randy Lewis and 38-year-old Paula Evans, two 10-year-olds and a 6-year-old child. Police were initially told that Lewis flipped the van, but later found that the driver was actually one of the 10-year-old children. Wait….what??
Yes, the 10-year-old was driving at about 90 mph when he lost control of the vehicle and rolled it. Further investigation revealed exactly why the child was driving….the adults were waaay beyond messed-up! Lewis admitted to having downed at least 15 beers and was still drinking when officers arrived on the scene. Evans was standing in the middle of the road swallowing pills, as many pills as she could choke down. One of the officers had to forcibly stop her before she could swallow any more.
Lewis tried to convince the police that he was the one driving the van, but one of the kids called bullshit on that story. The kid pulled an officer over to the side and informed him that it was a 10-year-old behind the wheel. Evans also called bullshit and stated to police, ‘I told him (Lewis) that the boy was too young to be driving.’Â Um….DUUUH!
The children were transported to Bristol Regional Medical Center and treated for their injuries. One child suffered a broken hand and the other two were treated for multiple cuts and lacerations. They were turned over to DCS and then to an unnamed caretaker until completion of the investigation. Evans was initially hospitalized for possible broken bones in her neck. She was released from the hospital Monday evening and taken into custody.
Lewis had a BAC of .26 and cocaine in his system. Evans had opiates, cocaine, and benzodiazepins in her system. Officers found 43 different pills in Evans’ purse…30 Percocet, 10 Xanax, 2 Suboxone, and 1 Lortab. Damn! She’sShe reviews a walking pharmacy!
So, now the two brainiacs are facing a slew of charges. Lewis was arraigned on seven counts, including DUI (third offense), felony reckless endangerment, and aggravated child abuse/neglect. Evans is being charged with felony reckless endangerment, aggravated child abuse/neglect, as well as drug possession. When first arrested, their bond was set at $10,000 but an intelligent judge decided to up the bond to $50,000.
For your viewing enjoyment, I am posting Lewis’ full mug shot….
…ironic, isn’t it?

AHHH! That SHIRT! :snortgiggle:
Y’know, I’ll hold her purse, if they need somebody to hang onto it and, you know, dispose of the medications properly. Yeah.
9:18 am on October 8th, 2008
oh, man, so glad the kids weren’t injured any worse, or killed! what a couple of geniuses.
that shirt is priceless. holy shit.
9:22 am on October 8th, 2008
Love the shirt, Dad! Sounds like someone bought dad about 10 too many! After taking all those pills how the hell could that chick even feel any pain to know she might have broken her neck? Where the hell was she getting all that shit?!
Imp, I know you’re really busy and all. I’ll be happy to hold on to her purse and make sure those meds are disposed of properly. It’s the least I could do.
9:25 am on October 8th, 2008
Just don’t take the Suboxone Imp! That’s what docs give to patients to get them off drugs!! It’s the hardest med to get.
What the fuck is all I can say. The stupidity of some people just amazes me
9:45 am on October 8th, 2008
Actually Ladies, I have to much time on my hands, I would gladly take them and dispose of them
Ya know, with all you two have going on and stuff!
Seriously though, thank goodness those kids are ok! Parents of the year right here!!!
9:54 am on October 8th, 2008
What morons! I wish people like them would get paralyzed from the neck down when the drive under the influence like that. (or in this case have their kids drive) Most often, drunk drivers walk away without a scratch, only to do it again later.
9:56 am on October 8th, 2008
shocking – 30 & 40 yr olds – no fucking sense
9:57 am on October 8th, 2008
What is the thing around her neck? Is it a neck brace?
A .26 is an extreeeeemely high BAC.
Where did she get all those pills? I’d just like a simple Valium.
9:59 am on October 8th, 2008
At 90 miles an hour, it’s amazing that the children weren’t killed and I am thankful that they are alive and will heal from their injuries. Notice I didn’t really express the same concern for their “caretakers”.
The guy’s facial expression in his mug shot is hillarious–it’s like the woke him up 30 seconds before taking the picture.
10:45 am on October 8th, 2008
Well here we go folks….smartest couple of the week right………….NOT
Thankfully no kids were seriously hurt!
11:06 am on October 8th, 2008
Wow, this is the city I live in. How great to know this is going on right here.
11:12 am on October 8th, 2008
Oh my gosh. There are no words….wait, yes there are. There are many, many, MANY words – the first of which would be ASSHOLES.
11:18 am on October 8th, 2008
WOW-
I cant believe that woman is only 38 yrs old. She looks rode hard and put up wet. He looks like a carny. I’m sure that the village is sad that their idiot is in jail. Ok and the children???
Who’s are they? His or Hers? Props to the 10 yrs old for calling them out.
Awesome. She was feeling no pain. I’m just wondering what candy she was throwing back when the police showed up?
I’m glad the children were ok.
11:52 am on October 8th, 2008
With a shirt like that, the wife should be wearing a shirt that says “I’m with stupid. —–>”
12:12 pm on October 8th, 2008
It has been stated that the children are related to the ‘adults.’ But, it doesn’t say which kids are related to which tard.
12:47 pm on October 8th, 2008
Good one RevAnne! And oh so true!
1:18 pm on October 8th, 2008
this lady looks like Christopher Lloyd in Back to the Future. Right after the lightning hits the clock and he gets zapped!
2:41 pm on October 8th, 2008
This is ONLY funny because no one was seriously injured — actually it’s kind of hilarious.
This, my friends is where Jeff Foxworthy comes up with so much material! People like this.
Hey… ya never know… maybe the 10 yr. old was driving 90 in Bristol cuz “Sumday, Junior here iz gunna be a race cur draver!” Ya know… practice?
And dad’s mugshot? Priceless! To me, it seems he’s thinking “Aww, sheet… what thee HELL was I thinkin’? Shoulda’ let the 6 year old drive, dammit!”
Yup, Yup — “Parents Of The Week” here!
5:16 pm on October 8th, 2008
In the photo it looks as if the woman is being swallowed by the Carp of Justice.
9:18 pm on October 8th, 2008
oh my god, too funny. =)
10:39 pm on October 8th, 2008
Heh.
10:51 pm on October 8th, 2008
Wry, this was epic!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I snorted reading it.
The DOODER, meanwhile, looks like he’s trying his best James Dean pose: Dumbass Without A Cause/Beer/Clue.
It should say “World’s Drunkest Dad.”
10:57 pm on October 8th, 2008
Her pill stash is remarkable.
I thought I kind of knew the range of painkiller possibilities, er, frankly, but I don’t even know what Suboxone is. And was on coke, painkillers, and xanax? You know these fools woke up soooooo hangover in jail…and with only Tylenol for their broken neck bones and all.
11:20 pm on October 8th, 2008
Suboxone is an alternative to Methadone – which is normally used to keep Heroine addicts from having severe withdrawals. May also curve the desire to use.
Guess to this yahoo… a pill is a pill is a pill…
Lucky she didn’t freakin’ die! Dayum!
11:51 pm on October 8th, 2008
Thank you all (modest bow) from me and the Carp of Justice.
I think “Dumbass Without a Cause” is great. He looks like a dog that’s trying so very, very, hard to figure out what you just said.
12:02 am on October 9th, 2008
Is she related to Hunter Johnson (Cheerleader by day / Drug dealer… well when ever) by any chance?? Certainly not as pretty.
My husband only caught that comment and walked away laughing his ass off. Kudos Wry.
12:11 am on October 9th, 2008
all i can say is Lord have mercy….brings the ole saying rode hard and put up wet back to mind, excpt her head got caught in the damn stirrup…
7:15 am on October 9th, 2008

11:29 am on October 9th, 2008

7:28 pm on October 11th, 2008
Dad’s mugshot IS priceless. All I can say about this situation is wow…just wow.
12:49 pm on October 14th, 2008
