John McCain’s fundraiser busted for a meth lab with LSD, coke, heroin and counterfeit cash

snip:
Sen. John McCain’s re-election fundraisers all list the same name as the RSVP contact, but that name also showed up as a person arrested during the bust of a meth lab Tuesday.

In Maricopa County, Arizona, sheriff’s deputies made arrests when they found an operational meth lab as well as other illicit drugs when they were carrying out a search warrant for the woman’s home. According to The Arizona Republic, the sheriff’s office identified Emily Pitha, 34, who is a former staffer of retired U.S. Sen. Jon Kyl (R-AZ). She also has worked most recently as a campaign fundraiser for McCain’s 2016 reelection.

I wonder if it was after partying with this fundraiser in 2008 that Palin got selected.

Not only drugs were found, but bomb making materials. Also an interesting tidbit she used to be a staffer for U.S. Sen. Jon Kyl, R-Ariz.

Matteson said two children living inside the home -- ages 5 and 10 -- "had easy access to all of (the) drugs and materials, even the bomb-making materials that were located in the back with the meth lab."
