This is why I always look before I sit!

Things you expect to find in a bathroom should be toilet paper, hand soap, towels, and maybe even those paper toilet seat covers.

We all have walked into a restroom to find one or more necessary items missing. This can be very inconvenient at the time.

So the question remains what do you do when there’s something “extra” inside?

Inside as "IN" the toilet itself!

Alabama police found something completely terrifying in just that very place.

What could possibly be floating in a toilet?

I know what you are thinking. Was it drugs or an illegal substance that an inmate possibly tried to flush?

It was not any illegal substances or even an inmate trying to flush any incriminating evidence.

How would you react to finding a snake in a toilet?

Yes, you read that correctly…A snake! See the horrific photo by scrolling below.

The Eufaula Alabama police department found a snake in the police station's bathroom stall!

A LIVE snake crawling around the commode!  As if my nightmares couldn’t get any worse.

Imagine having to go at the precise moment and you find a snake slithering around in the bowl where you sit.

Check out the photo from Facebook..

The Eufaula Police did safely remove the harmless Gray Rat Snake and relocate it versus placing it under arrest for trespassing.

Those would be awesome mug shots..  Or maybe a snake lineup?  I mean think about it.  Or if you are anything like myself, DON'T think about it!  The horror is too much!

Because of this, I now check my throne before use, I don’t want any unpleasant surprises.

This now includes snakes!

Being Interviewed and Interrogated are 2 Different Things

An interview is just that, an interview. It is simply a question and answer session to get more clarity in the investigation. An interrogation is very accusatory so a detective can get the truth out of you.

Your Trash is Fair Game

Once you roll your trash can to the curb, it's fair game for police to search it. If you took that drink they offered and threw it away, it is also perfectly okay for them to get DNA from it.

You Do Not Have to Talk or Let an Officer Into Your Home

You Don't Have to Take a Field Sobriety Test

If you're pulled over for suspicion of driving under the influence or driving while intoxicated, you do not have to take a field sobriety test. However, if you do refuse, you may be required to take a blood test which is more accurate anyway.

Ask if You're Free to Go

If you have answered the officer's questions, always ask if you're free to go. If the officer says yes, then you can leave without any further obligation.
