A Florida man decided to make a midday pit stop at a gas station, but instead of filling up, he emptied out -- draining his bladder into an extra large drink cup as a cop watched just from a few feet away.
Michael Aaron Barrentine walked into the convenience store part of the station and tried to enter the bathroom, which was occupied -- something he found out too late to change plans in mid-stream. The 31-year-old decided to grab a beverage cup and turn towards the microwave, where he poured out his own "big gulp" -- which he tossed into the trash.
Barrentine headed for the door, grabbed a pair of earbud headphones and put them in his pocket -- but paid for a cup of coffee he'd poured at the beverage station. At that point, he was arrested by the deputy, who'd seen the whole thing.

A Florida woman bit off more than she could chew by trying to convince cops strangers had robbed her and her boyfriend -- only to have her guy's missing drugs and false teeth turn up hidden in her car.
Felicity Leigh Palma called 911 to report that she'd seen "two dudes" running from the home she shared with her boyfriend, carrying an armful of her possessions. When officers arrived, the unidentified boyfriend said he was also missing some items, including two bottles of pills and his choppers. As cops were looking for clues, her guy went to the car and brought his stuff to cops -- at which point Palma accused him of trying to frame her.
While being questioned, Palma admitted that she made up the entire incident because she was mad at her boyfriend and wanted to show him how easy it would be for someone to rip him off. She was charged with theft and filing a false police report.

A Pennsylvania man was recently sentenced to at least 20 years in prison, but had one important thing to take care of before being locked up.
47-year-old Greg Howard was found guilty of robbing and assaulting an elderly woman inside her house in 2014. The woman was left with permanent injuries as a result, and a judge sentenced him to between 20 and 40 years. But before being hauled away to the penitentiary, he was taken into another courtroom, where he was allowed to marry his girlfriend. The ceremony was attended by five deputies and the bride's baby.
During the trial, Howard defended himself and offered a bizarre, rambling closing argument in which he referenced Santa Claus, the Tooth Fairy and the Easter Bunny.
