I'm Sorry For...I Forget

AZTEC, N.M. - Officials in New Mexico say a prisoner sent a letter of apology to a judge.

But the letter has gotten the inmate into even more trouble, because it contained pot leaves.

In the letter, San Juan County prisoner Craig Hopkins apologized for violating his probation. After the pot was discovered, guards carried out a six-hour shakedown of Hopkins' cellblock.

But authorities say they didn't find the source of the marijuana and Hopkins isn't talking. Hopkins already faces charges ranging from possession of a controlled substance to DWI.
