[quote]Saying “Scooby Doo” at the drive-through window of a North Side Wendy's might have brought certain patrons something extra in their fries — a memory card with videos of child pornography.
Asking for “chiva” at an East Side restaurant, Anna's Café, wouldn't have brought out an order of goat meat, but an illicit delivery of heroin.
The off-the-menu items stood out Wednesday among the run-of-the-mill details in a docket of immigration violators, gun smugglers and drug peddlers in line for sentencing in front of U.S. District Judge Xavier Rodriguez.
Juan Antonio Rosa, 36, was sentenced to more than 21 years in federal prison for distributing child pornography in an unusual fashion.
He took orders for child porn from people he met on social networking sites, downloaded two to five videos of it onto SD memory cards and sold the cards for $50 a pop at the Wendy's drive-through window, Assistant U.S. Attorney Tracy Thompson told the judge.
The exact location was not identified, but Thompson said Rosa, who had already served part of a five-year sentence for a state conviction of child pornography, would place the cards in the carton of fries for the customers he met online.
“It kind of gives new meaning to, 'Would you like fries with that?'” Thompson said.
Those wanting the child porn would provide Rosa a code word, such as “Scooby Doo” or “(Expletive) on a Stick.”
Rosa, who faced a minimum of 15 years, apologized for his conduct to his family, including his two young daughters, before the judge gave him his 262-month sentence.
“I can tell you the San Antonio franchisee has no knowledge of the incident,” said Andrea Winans, a spokeswoman for Wendy's. “They have no information or any police report of this incident occurring at a Wendy's there.”
Thompson noted child pornography was found on Rosa's computers at an apartment in Converse that was raided by agents with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement in July 2011.
Rosa not only confessed to downloading child porn and selling it at Wendy's, where he started working shortly after being released in summer 2010 from his state prison term, Thompson said:
“He said, 'It's not for me. I'm just trying to make some money off of it.'” The scheme, Thompson said, allowed others access to the child porn while being able to avoid law enforcement scrutiny.
In the heroin case, Judge Rodriguez sentenced Ernest Zapata Sr., 58, to 51 months in federal prison for trafficking heroin from Anna's Café in the 2400 block of East Houston Street, a restaurant that he runs with his wife.
The judge also gave Zapata's son-in-law, Roland Villarreal, 27 months for distributing heroin at a nearby home that was within 1,000 feet of White Elementary School. A third defendant, Samuel Tate, was handed five years of probation.
The three were among six people the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration and San Antonio police arrested last year on charges that they had trafficked about four pounds of high-purity heroin per month from Guerrero state in Mexico, worth about $400,000 when retailed on the streets.
The DEA said the group had been selling heroin for nearly 20 years, including the five years that the restaurant has been at the East Houston location, police said.
Undercover officers made a series of buys of “chiva” — street slang for heroin — including 15 purchases at the restaurant, court records said.
During one buy, Zapata took an undercover officer to the kitchen, and directed his daughter, Gracie Zapata, to retrieve 4 ounces of heroin from a freezer.
The heroin was hidden in children's diapers in some of the handoffs, the DEA said.
Gracie Zapata was sentenced in May to 46 months in prison. The remaining co-defendants, Antonio Fernandez and Manuel Rios, 63, await sentencing this fall.

Of all codes, scooby doo?
Jinkies.
Chances are I'd have swallowed the memory card if it were in my fries.
Their slogan sums it up best: "Now That's Different"
"Hey waiter, there's child porn in my soup."
Disgusting.

That's what happens when you sell Scooby Snacks at Wendy's.

Do I want fries with that? I scooby doo.

Oh, but if he did it the usual way, it only would've been 19.

For a good business to survive you gotta keep your fingers in as many kids as possible.
I mean pies

No it doesn't that makes no sense
[QUOTE=DamagePoint;36764481]Disgusting.[/QUOTE]
It's you anti-business types who are ruining this country
This'll be a crazy way to remember Scooby Doo
Well, uh, that's pretty horrible and pretty weird; I mean, "Scooby-Doo", of all phrases? I guess they wanted a phrase unconnected to the product, which makes a twisted kinda sense; it's more stealthy than the "Bob Marley Special; Extra Crispy", at any rate. (from the Tenacious D movie, fyi)
