cooking whiskey is illegal under federal law. maybe not state law but is a federal crime. maybe the feds treat it like marijuana now? i have no idea. i know they enforce gun laws regardless of state laws. dont seem like that many years ago to me a woman like that would come home from grocery shopping to find out her house burned down

While individuals of legal drinking age may produce wine or beer at home for personal or family use, Federal law strictly prohibits individuals from producing distilled spirits at home (see 26 United States Code (U.S.C.) 5042(a)(2) and 5053(e)). Producing distilled spirits at any place other than a TTB-qualified distilled spirits plant can expose you to Federal charges for serious offenses and lead to consequences including, but not necessarily limited to, the following:

Within title 26 of the United States Code, section 5601 sets out criminal penalties for activities including the following. Offenses under this section are felonies that are punishable by up to 5 years in prison, a fine of up to $10,000, or both, for each offense.
5601(a)(1) – Possession of an unregistered still.
5601(a)(2) – Engaging in business as a distiller without filing an application and receiving notice of registration.
5601(a)(6) – Distilling on a prohibited premises. (Under 26 U.S.C. 5178(a)(1)(B), a distilled spirits plant may not be located in a residence or in sheds, yards, or enclosures connected to a residence.)
5601(a)(7) – Unlawful production or use of material fit for production of distilled spirits.
5601(a)(8) – Unlawful production of distilled spirits.
5601(a)(11) – Purchase, receipt, and/or processing of distilled spirits when the person who does so knows or has reasonable grounds to believe that Federal excise tax has not been paid on the spirits.
5601(a)(12) – Removal or concealment of distilled spirits on which tax has not been paid.

WHO in their right mind would EVER set up a STILL in a HOUSE indoors???? The smell alone would drive you out of the House and Making Moonshine is NOT a Federal Crime. Selling UNTAXXED LIQUOR is a FEDERAL Crime. Been in court over that one!! Prohibition ended!!!

Please do not send her to Georgia. There are too many like her down here now.

Still in the house? what are you talking about?

Actually since she loves to be a POS we are building a Pig Pen right across the road from her Driveway. The friend of mine who she tried to get to shoot our Horses wants to keep one as well as my buddy from the mine who, lives in town. I will buy a couple myself to raise one to Butcher and then sell the other. I hope she enjoys the smell and the NOISE when they start squealing at feeding time!!! I sure hopes she enjoys the country life!!!

she ain't done....watch for poison.

I would think that the pasture next to her patch could do with some manure spreading to get the grass growing nice in the spring. At the current price of fertilizer manure is a very good option when spread thick enough See if you can get a few tankers of the stuff from a dairy farm near you

She sounds more like a horse thief! Intentional fence removal and then destruction of evidence or intentional destruction of livestock/ property. Almost all states have hard laws on horses, livestock, and water.

It amazing that people that teach preach tolerance and compassion have the least of it.
