  ------- Forwarded foolishness follows -------

The Portland Oregonian reports on criminal justice meted out in Salinas, 
California: 

Deputy District Attorney Christine Harter asked that Tamara Dee
Maldonado be prohibited from possessing Beanie Babies. The toys, Harter
said, are like a drug and ought to be treated as such. 

Judge Jonathan Price agreed. For the next five years, law enforcement 
agencies will have the right to search Maldonado's home without a search 
warrant to determine if she has any Beanie Babies. Maldonado has used 
pilfered credit card numbers to purchase $8,000 worth of toys.

[The TY company, which makes Beanie Babies, failed to place warning
labels on the stuffed animals warning consumers of their addictive
properties.
Attorneys General from thirty-nine states, as well as the United States
Justice Department, are considering litigation to compel TY to act as a
more responsible corporate citizen.]
