Woman caught making meth in Tulsa Walmart

From Fox 23:

"Tulsa police arrest a woman for mixing chemicals to make meth inside a south Tulsa Walmart on Thursday.
Elizabeth Alisha Greta Halfmoon, 45, also known to go by Alisha Halfmoon, was arrested for endeavoring to manufacture meth at the 81st and Lewis store.
Police say surveillance video shows Halfmoon had been in the store since noon.  Six hours later security noticed she was acting suspicious, so they called Tulsa police.
Responding officers say she claimed she was "too broke to buy the chemicals."
“She didn’t have the money to make the purchases of the chemicals that were needed so she was taking what was needed in the bottle,” says Officer David Shelby.
Shoppers inside the store had no idea someone was cooking meth.
“This is a family store,” says Jessica Fuentes, who also had her 1-year-old son inside the store. “People need to start thinking. If she has family she needs to think about her family. If you are broke. It’s just wrong."
”When I saw her she had just finished mixing sulfuric acid with starter fluid in a bottle,” says Officer Shelby.
“When firefighters were on the scene she made statements to them that is what she was doing, she was attempting to obtain these chemicals and was in the process of trying to manufacture meth. However, she said she was not very good at it,” says Shelby.
A responding officer didn’t know the bottle was active. As he was discarding the bottle the chemicals burned through the bottle and through his gloves.
He was treated for chemical burns on his hands and is okay.
Police say they arrested Halfmoon just last month in a smurf sting.  Smurfs are known among police as meth cooks or recruits who purchase pseudoephedrine to make meth.  The medication is often found in cold and allergy medicines and is the main ingredient needed to make meth."

 Just imagine, something from Walmart that wasn't made in China!

Yes, they do but it contains MSG and you're hungry again in a half an hour.

Tweekers prefer K-marts electric hotpans over Walmart, but Walmart usually has better sales on bug spray, a key component for the meth elite.
