Social Media Extremely Skeptical About Alleged Tampon Placed in LAPD Officer's Starbucks Drink

I know this doesn’t really matter but I worked at Starbucks for years - the logistics of this are just not possible. There’s like 60 seconds in between a Frappuccino being ordered and being made and Starbucks employees can’t just run off the bathroom whenever they want

So someone would have to just have a used tampon in their apron pocket next to the markers and whatnot and then dropped it into a drink in front of 10 other employees, who are all Starbucks sycophants because that’s who works there

I've worked retail.....done thousands of transactions...and never ever eeeeevvvvveeerrrr did I look at someone's debit/credit card because they swipe it themselves all the time. And if he wasn't in uniform how would anyone know he was a cop???

I've worked at starbucks, I don't believe it. You have to ask for breaks ahead of time and was your hands after, you can't leave drinks undone or someone else does them...usually it only takes 60 seconds and you're in view. Also, you can't tell it's a police credit card lol

Yes, but was the tampon soaked in bleach before they put it in his Frappuccino?

Cops have been doing some pretty fucked up shit to get sympathy from the public lately.

I'm going to assume the cops are guilty until proven innocent, just like they treat black people. https://t.co/8yu6Ht49zY

That’s definitely not a tampon... apparently these people have never seen a tampon before. 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️ pic.twitter.com/TbfPoJvQgH

tampons swell in liquid over time they don’t completely fall apart after being in a frap for 5 mins lmao

that tampon is either 75 years old ( it journeyed through ocean and time until it made its way up the toilet at the Diamond Bar Starbucks) or... well I don’t know how else to say this but, it’s not a tampon.

So if I understand this correctly - the offduty cop was not uniformed, and paid with a police union card at a card reader across from the barista, who then had a tampon ready to put in his frap? pic.twitter.com/rDiBdjTWys

i'm in awe of the degree to which that's not a tampon

Sounds like another shake shack “very real” incident.

Paying with a police union credit card isn't relevant if he just swiped it/inserted it in the card reader so how would they know what company it's with? If they're seeing anything in their system it's only if it's Visa or Mastercard.

Idk about other baristas but 1. In no fucking way do I know wtf a "police credit union" debit card looks like, 2. In no fucking way do baristas have time to casually have tampons on hand during the 30 seconds it takes to make a frappuccino, and https://t.co/Z6EllG0HFK

Likely another fabricated story, just like the bleach in milkshakes from Shake Shack in NYC.
