No, silly, they're not talking about no-cost popped corn, but, rather, getting Marvin "Popcorn" Sutton, author of the apparent American classic Me and My Likker, released from the clutches of The Man. Otherwise, looks like Popcorn's going to prison on federal weapons and distillation of illegal spirits charges--that is, one presumes, unless Bo and Luke show up in the General Lee.
The Wall Street Journal's Law Blog describes Popcorn as "a legend of Appalachia." Always good to see stereotypes disproved, no?
If Popcorn was your supplier, though, and you're looking for something to help you make it through the jittery hours of detox, may I suggest losing yourself in imaginative play with a $150 bling-flashing Bernie Madoff action figure? It doesn't come with any plastic dupes, but take a cue from ol' Popcorn and...adapt.

This is idiotic. I cannot believe that this is being prioritized by the justice department while so many other crimes are going unprosecuted.
