Cops: Woman spent six hours in a Wal-Mart making meth

Tulsa County Jail

Alisha Greta Halfmoon is accused of making meth inside an Oklahoma Wal-Mart.

 

TULSA – Tulsa police arrested a 45-year-old woman they said mixed chemicals together to make methamphetamine inside a Wal-Mart store.  

“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,” Tulsa Police Officer David Shelby told FOX23.com.

Police said the suspect, Elizabeth Alisha Greta Halfmoon, had been in the store since noon on Thursday, taking chemicals from bottles and mixing them in order to make meth. She had been in the store for six hours, according to police.

Security officials called police once they spotted Halfmoon acting suspiciously.

Shelby said it was the first time he had seen anyone actually attempt to mix and make the drug in a store.

“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,” Shelby told the TV station.

One police officer received minor injuries when the chemicals in the bottle burned his hand. Nobody else was injured.

Shoppers expressed shock and outrage at the incident.

“Something could have happened, something could have blown up in there,” shopper Jonathan Tary told a television reporter.

    Well, we who are well bred say we are shocked and appalled. We also find various things abhorrent. Occasionally our indignation rises like a geyser, and then we sweep into office a collection of conservative pustules, in order that the downtrodden receive a heavier boot on their necks.

    Oh, yes, I should add that while raising these conservative pustules to the level of malignant afflictions upon the weary, we strongly emphasize our allegiance to and unswerving defense of Everything Christian, not excluding the upcoming pagan shopping frenzy.

      She should have been on "stupid human tricks" and then boo'd off the stage for her stupidity.

        That's nothin'. I saw this guy in Walmart the other day selling pills right out in the open. He set up his own area in the store and made it look like he was givin' out federal aid to rural crop growers cuz he had a big sign that said "Farm Assist" on it. Can't fool me!

          Are you sure it wasn't "Pharm Assist"? He may have been a company rep, giving out samples, for promotional purposes.

                No, she had a detailed book on how to do it on her arm, from her extensive research on the internet. The reason it took six hours is she kept thinking the needle marks were dotted Is. Mustve been very confusing.

                    Is she a American Indian or a burnout from the 60's?

                    What ever happened to the good old days...the holiday spirit brought to you by Cheech and Chong. I sure do miss their Christmas song...."Hey man, how did Santa get down the chimney man.? ..."Oh man, he snorted some magic dust to get small, man." Yeah but how did he get his reindeer to fly?" Ah man, he gave them some magic dust also."

                    "Man, I heard Santa might not be making his rounds man. He got busted flying across the Mexican border man. Misses Claus is really gonna be pissed!" ...Chong..."Man, don't worry, her and the elves are all smokin some good stuff now that the work is over...they don't care." Yup those were the innocent day huh? In fact, think I'll pull up Cheech and Chong Christmas right now....:)

                    Seems that a lot of people who know nothing about it, and have no idea about what was going on; have a lot to say about it.

                    Why is drug use off the charts?

                    Well, it isn't because there are more drugs around now.

                      There are more inbred, stupid, lazy, fat people around now, and a society that condones drug use nor demands culpability.

                        She appears as if she were once very good looking. And, some how, in some way, this seems cleverer than the invention of Facebook.

                        As for the comments here: once, the internet was officially for porn. There was even a song about it. Now it's for nastiness and stupidity.

                              If we are going to condemn Walmart, I guess we should condemn every store in the world. Where meth users and illegal drug user shop. A meth user will go anywhere to get their supplies.

                              Sorry, this was either a publicity stunt, since it truly seems ludicrous that this woman could mix chemicals in a store without being noticed by SOMEONE for six hours. Yellow journalism, I'll bet, once again, or a planted story.

                                    And MSNBC not one new report on the Murdering President OBAMA and his pal hit man nor is there a single major item on OBAMA's good friend at Goldman Sacks Corzine and where the Billions went. So next time you commit a crime just say "it was not my fault because it was not what I wanted to do." Talk about a Socialist Press organization. MSNBC is a joke.

                                    Millions of people have lost all their money and lives to Democratic Corzine the Billionaire and MSNBC is so low life as not to mention one negative because he is a friend of the Muslim President OBAMA. The Murder and his killer for hire Eric Holder. So now MSNBC killing Americans is ok? Your new organization is scum.

                                          Not to insult you in any way, but your rant should not be on a political topic, but on the meth that was being made at wal-mart. Where did all this hatred come from, so bad that you can't even discuss the topic at hand, but go on a custer's last stand attack on the presidency. I must have missed the part where the government was involved in this meth problem. Granted, they are our last resort for this growing problem, but let's discuss this woman's mental state and the fact that wallie world just sat back for six hours and just watched her........................
