MILTON, FL – A Santa Rosa woman is being held on suspicion of international drug trafficking at the Milton Police Department. Wanda Achers was arrested Sunday night after a search warrant led to the recovery of $25,574, 1.5 kilos of cocaine, and 12 collector’s “reborn” dolls filled with cocaine, ready for sale.

This is the third in a recent series of arrests that focus on the use of children’s toys in the trafficking of cocaine. “We have been suspicious of these types of dolls for some time now,” said DEA Special Agent Bartholomew Halston. “Any internet doll sale that yields more than $900 goes onto our watch list. We’ve compiled quite a lengthy list over the last five years, but very few leads actually result in an arrest.” Halston says he is always surprised that someone is willing to pay up to $1000, sometimes more, for a plastic doll, but is relieved that most dolls are not filled with cocaine.

Reborn dolls are created from vinyl kits that have been painted to look exceptionally realistic and are popular among collectors. Ultra-fine glass granules are often used to fill the hollow limbs of the dolls to add a genuine weight and feel to the finished product. The limbs make an excellent receptacle for storing and shipping drugs.

Halston says he became suspicious of Achers after she sold a doll, which he described as “thoroughly average” for an astonishing $26,000. “I believe an artist should be well-compensated for their craft, but when a doll that looks like it has been painted by a child sells for that amount, an investigation is more than justified.”

Halston wants to send a clear message to other housewives and homemakers who might be considering using Ebay and other internet auction spots as a way to peddle illicit material. “Look, we’ve seen it all, hashish oil in perfume bottles, MDMA in bubble gum dispensers, and doll babies filled with coke and heroin. There’s nothing you can think of [to sell drugs] that won’t get you caught.”

Also found during the raid was a large stack of cease and desist letters written on phony legal letterhead, but officials are not ready to relate the findings to drug activity. “It seems Ms. Achers was angry at a lot of different internet people, and was trying to name some of them in defamation lawsuits,” commented Halston. “It’s possible that the people named in the bogus lawsuits are those who notified the DEA about her drug dealings in the first place. We’re looking into it.”

The author of this article is a vindictive, jealous, ignorant low-life that really needs a life.
So sorry there are actually simple minded people like this out in the world.

The most dreadful thing has happened, this morning I found my cat, Spliffy in the bathroom, she had stolen my credit card and was chopping up white powder on my beautifully crocheted toilet seat cover! At first I thought it was Johnsons, but on closer inspection of Spliffy’s eyes I could see that she was indeed high! When I returned to my bedroom I found all my reborn dolls on the floor, all of them had had their fingers nibbled off! The contents of their poor mutilated hands lay scattered on the floor, a trail leading to the bathroom. The worst is yet to come, my neighbour has just given me the medical bills for the rehabilitation of her poodle, my naughty Spliffy has been supplying it with coke for the last six months, apparently my Heavenleigh had a slow leak!

This has nothing to do with funny at all! This was directed at ONE specific person! This was slanderous untrue and and extreemly nasty.

When it is publisized for the world to see as the saying goes those who live in glasses houses shouldn’t throw stones.

This may very well come back around to the liar to bittem! The intent of this literature fit only for the roll was meant and directed to cause harm, not a laugh. We all know who all parties are.

You know, the more attention that is brought to it, the worse it is for the alleged person it is about. I didn’t even “get it” until it was pointed out, and I still may be wrong. So go ahead and make a mountain out of a mole hill. It’s still funny!

It doesn’t matter Attorneys already have screen shots of this post from the time it was first identified and the evidence has already been turned over to the authorities. So I guess the author will find out just how funny it was very soon. The IP addresses as well as all of the activities of this are now being heavily monitored by the Milton Police department as well as the Florida Department of Law Inforcement and the DEA due to the false reports and alligations made in this report and it has been further identified as a malisious attempt to cause harm to a certain person name and locations given. Laugh your self silly

There is nothing to lighten up about?

The writer of the article should be ashamed of themselves of the damage they could cause to a whole community of honest reborn artists.

JELOUS i think…. jelousy is such a ugly thing.

Tina Marie is quite correct… The person, (and we ALL KNOW who YOU are!), who created this defamatory Article, apparently, out of an act of COWARDICE, changed the original text to prevent criminal prosecution, overlooked the ‘print screen’ key… so the original Article is in the hands of the aforementioned authorities… ie; Milton Police dept., Florida dept of law enforcement and the DEA.
WHO do you thinks laughing now?

PS – …… be ‘who’ you ‘are’ and don’t ‘hide’ behind the anonymity of the Internet… because ‘what goes around comes around’……

This is to the Site Admin of ‘wine & excrement.com’… call this Site what you will… ‘Satire, Parody, Comedy… (uh-hum!)…. even ‘excrement’… (which is most accurate in this instance) …. but it’s still ILLEGAL to make defamatory remarks publicly about People….. I don’t care if you write 100 disclaimers!
Writing satire about hating the commute to work, having a bad hair day, or how impossible it is to get ‘good help’ these days is one thing, BUT!… It is NOT the same as inferring that an ARTIST, who makes her sole living from a particular Art Form (in this instance, Reborn Dolls), is using Her Reborns to traffic illicit Drugs! Especially when there are hundreds of us ARTISTS who are going to be affected by this highly publicized post! Those of us who sell Reborn Dolls (for a living!) certainly don’t like the ‘inference’ that we stuff illicit Drugs in them because ‘maybe’ Customs and other Law enforcement agencies will actually start tearing our beautiful Dolls apart because of this Article (which REALLY doesn’t read like Satire to me… sorry… it reads like an ‘actual’ news Story… and I don’t CARE how many times you re-iterate it’s Satire and we need counseling if we don’t know the difference!)
Freedom of Speech is protected… slander & defamation isn’t… (They’re two separate things).
* WineAndExcrement.com SHOULD know the difference also… I recommend the following reading:

** Another important aspect of defamation is the difference between fact and opinion. Statements made as “facts” are frequently actionable defamation. Statements of opinion or pure opinion are not actionable **.

Now I’m outta here!… never to return!!!!!

all who are standing against this story, created only for one direct and exact purpose, know that it is not the responsibily of wineandexcrement.com but the one of the so called author. The author did not use one responsible, decision making when using the particular ficticious names or locations etc… only in a few areas scrambling the words to change a few things. As stated This particular article is being monitored and investigation being done having already been obtained direct contact information as to the writer of this article. This writer/so called Artist has ruined them selves with reputable respectful people who might pay a high price for quality art that is created. This author and their so called creations were only created for the gutter. Their only intents was not only to harm the artist, but the reborn and doll collector world as a whole. You should never bite the hand that feeds you..

The person that wrote this Article is definitely a liar and has to be insane for writing this about an innocent person. Everyone knows who you are. It just shows what a jealous and malicious person you are. Remember – God does not sleep! The Milton Police dept., Florida dept of law enforcement and the DEA will handle this.

I would like to know why you think that this type of thing is so funny? How do you think Berenguer is going to feel when they find out that Reborn Artists them selves posted photos of their stock photo of a Berenguer Kit in an artcle about artists transporting drugs?

How about this for an article? What if This story was instead about Miss Patty having perverted sex with her children and one of her children was from that insest? names or details give locations etc? would that be a good haha as well? I don’t think so. Look at all the people that it would hurt.

Or some other completely nasty thing. What goes around comes around what you sew you will reap and worse.

How can you hate someone so much to do this? Tell me

I can’t believe that such nastiness can come from reborn artists and why there is so much hatred. Okay fine maybe you don’t like someone, fine maybe you do belong to different groups.. but why steep to such nastiness? and not to mention what affect do you think your having on anyone else who might want a reborn new to the art, shoot this is a whole new sickness to this side of the reborn world, that pales in comparison to people who buy dolls to sooth their hurts on Dr. Phill..

I am finished there is already one board where this type of participation is tolerated. I won’t help another one start up.

Rest up, ladies! I am Agent Termagent, an officer of the IBS. The person(s) responsible for this article have been detained, questioned and punished for their actions. Unfortunately, many of the comments made above are violations of the Constitution, in that they are freely expressed opinions. Contrary to popular belief, the Constitution does NOT guarantee ANY rights whatsoever, much less “Freedom of Speech”. Recent legal findings have determined that said claims made by the Constitution are specious – at best. Here at the newly formed government agency, the IBS, we are here to make sure that the Constitution is interpreted as it was meant to be: to protect power from the people. I hope you’ll join us in this effort and appreciate the time you’ve taken to share information on those who do not take this patriotic view. God bless!
