This. Everybody around here knows not to fuck around in Rexburg. They do not play around down there. Seriously. You don't even drive fast down there. I don't know why anyone who isn't a regular temple attending Mormon would want to live there. That's about as purely Mormon a place as there is and, believe me, it is not the place to fight the culture war because Rexburg is way far deep behind enemy lines. But, it does have the closest Walmart so it's got that going for it...and that is about the only reason anyone I know will set foot in Rexburg. Stay away from that place.
We all joke about SLC but SLC is downright progressive compared to Rexburg. BYU-Rexburg is where the hick Mormons go to school. That's the flower of rural Mormon womanhood earning their Mrs. degree at BYU-Rex. The eternal fate of 9,000 virginal Momo girls hangs in the balance. As a result, those Momo elders will fuck up anyone who gets out of line in Rexburg. For real. It's the sort of place where it was a big deal whether Applebees would be allowed to sell drinks. Get caught with felony weight dope? They'll nail yer hide to the wall. Momos are hyperconservative to begin with but if you do your thing around their youth, you just signed your own death warrant. As far as the Momos are concerned, that entire county is a "school zone."
Just sayin', Rexburg doesn't represent what the rest of Idaho is like but, yeah, you'd better watch your step passing through Madison County. If you are having a good time on the lower South Fork, don't forget that the north side of the river is Madison Co..

Sounds like hell on earth.
The other scam cops run is weighing of the weed (the weed+container). Edibles, everything gets weighed etc.

I spent a week in jail in Rexburg. the judge was an ex-morman bishop. I had one small bowl load on me and a pipe. I got a year of supervised probation with drug tests every month, 1k in fines, mandatory NA meetings every week and a suspended drivers license for a year. That place seriously fucking sucks. It feels like another dimension.
dirtbag, not a dentist
On the plus side, my acquaintances who have been the guests of Madison Co all report that it is about the safest and most drama free place one can do time. I had one guy tell me he'd rather do the full 11 months and 29 days in the Madison Co lockup than do another 60 days in a San Diego jail.
I knew another guy who had to take a Greyhound Bus all the way from Connecticut to come back to do a week in Madison Co jail. He said the week in jail was better than the bus ride.
Teton County just has a temporary holding facility. If you have to spend any time in jail up here, you get taken down to Madison Co., where they will charge you good money for your bunk and baloney sandwich. That's where we have to go to pick up our friends when they end up on the wrong side of things. So there it is, the only two good reasons to ever set foot in Rexburg are to go to Walmart or to give a friend a lift when the Momos let him out of the can. Leave your stash at home.

If you have the security/ guarantee why would you pay the bail bondsman 10% and put up security? Couldn’t you just pay the whole bail amount? Or are you just saying that people have the assets but they aren’t liquid so they go through the bondsman?
Sounds like the system is even more fucked than I thought.
I knew this one dude who drifted through here a while ago, he was such a cracker that we actually called him, "Cracker", as his official nickname. Needless to say, he wasn't very smart. He was in a car in Rexburg with some guys from work whom he barely even knew and they got pulled over and one of the other guys had a doob in his wallet. Everyone in the car went to jail. The judge, probably the same one you had, suckered him into confessing guilt for possession when he didn't have an attorney present. To add insult to injury, the cops "confiscated" a couple hundred dollars out of his wallet and told him he could only have it back if he could prove it wasn't the receipts of drug sales. He didn't actually have any dope on himself but, he was joyriding around Rexburg in a car full of Mexicans and that's all it takes.
Jesus, I can only imagine what kind of shit the Rexburg cops pulled during the eclipse last summer. Fish in a barrel....

Yeah, the idea that Benny could hack it in Driggs is fairly amusing. Hell, half the new people who live in the valley are really J-Holers who can't afford to sleep in Jackson. They work, shop, play and socialize in Jackson...they just sleep in Victor. Me, I grew up in Tennessee so the bullshit that goes on around here is still an improvement over where I'm from. Tennessee gave me good coping skills for living around rednecks and bible beaters. Not many New Yorkers stick around here, Benny, and 99% of the ones who do are from upstate.
no doubt.
I drove over the pass last Wednesday night about 6pm driving from TV to JXN, solid line of cars heading to TV the whole way, buses too.
Wondering how long it will be before they widen that road.

i'm sure dd is not a bad guy. he is just bitter and acting out because most of think he is an attention whore
DD is a sweetheart who acts bitter.
He took an internet troll role and plays his little heart out.
Bored and too much time in his hands.
He makes me laugh, so he’s good on my book.
Yes, I called DD a sweetheart.
I thought the comment was pretty clearly made in jest, riffing on the right-wing obsession with drug testing anyone receiving or trying to receive public benefits of any kind.

Getting caught with a few eighths of weed isn't that big of a deal. Indicted LOL.
