Republican election chief accused of slipping MDMA, cocaine into granddaughters’ ice cream

No, he definitely wanted to use this to stoke the fire in the minds of the "drug problem" locally. The DQ is probably staffed by some minority or other group that he hates, so if the optics show those "evil people putting drugs into innocent little white girls food" to create more hatred. Just pure evil.

According to Raleigh, North Carolina NBC affiliate WRAL News, on August 8, Yokeley approached a Wilmington police officer and claimed his two juvenile granddaughters had discovered two suspicious pills in ice cream they’d purchased from Dairy Queen on Oleander Drive.

However, surveillance video later revealed that Yokeley himself was seen placing the pills into both of the girls’ treats. The pills reportedly tested positive for MDMA and cocaine, as noted in an arrest warrant. The authorities said they have evidence he slipped drugs into the girls’ ice cream.

I don't know. If the kids had eaten those pills, they would have been fucked up or dead. Either way, authorities would have gotten involved. I suspect that this was his plan from the beginning.

Edit: Wait, is MDMA a date rape drug? I assumed he was staging this to go after DQ. Was he instead trying to drug them to assault them?
