http://i34.tinypic.com/33bfp5g.jpgA Muncie woman was jailed early Friday after asking an Indiana State Police trooper whether it was OK for her to light up a cigarette.
Honesty Knight was a front-seat passenger in a vehicle that Trooper Eric Perkins stopped for a traffic violation.
When Perkins was talking to the driver about the traffic stop, Knight obtained the officer's approval to light a cigarette.
She was arrested after Perkins asked to see the cigarette, which contained marijuana, not tobacco.
The Muncie woman was preliminarily charged with possession of paraphernalia and taken to the Delaware County jail, where she was released after posting a $2,500 bond.
According to court records, Knight has been convicted of forgery (in 1998), receiving stolen property (1999), and escape and theft (both last May).http://www.thestarpress.com/article/20081206/NEWS01/812060312
