Dade City, FL – Not much to this one, but the whole damn story leaves me saying, “What the…? Why the…? Ummm, huh?” Robert McCray was in a stinky situation – he owed his crack dealer about $40, but was a little short on funds. What’s a crackhead to do? Well, this crackhead decided to go the easy route and just help himself to some extremely discounted merchandise (we’re talking a discount of the five-finger type, here) at a Dade City CVS on Thursday afternoon. It’s not the actual theft that makes me scratch my head in confusion – it’s the looted merchandise McCray tried to get out of the store with. Antiperspirant. A lot of antiperspirant. Over $80 worth. McCray allegedly stuffed 19 packages of underarm deodorant into his jacket and tried to beat feet out of the store. He didn’t get far – a couple of CVS employees caught up with him at the door and held him until police arrived. And judging by that lovely shiner, it looks like they held him real good. McCray told officers he took the deodorant to pay back a friend over a drug debt. McCray, who sports a chest tattoo that says, “Thug Life,” is charged with retail theft and resisting a merchant. Throw in possession of crack cocaine and possession of drug paraphernalia charges as well – officers found a crack pipe and a small baggie with some of the nasty rock in it. No stranger to law enforcement, having previously served six prison sentences for a total of eight years on convictions for drugs, grand theft auto and burglary, McCray is once again behind bars in lieu of $5,450 bail.
