Edward Cocaine. Advertisement "What?" Judge John "Jay" Hurley responded. "You know, I'd thought I'd seen it all.” Mr. Cocaine explained. "My last name is Cocaine," he said. "My great-grandparents came over here from Greece and they changed it. That was like in the 1920s." "How many times have the police told you to step out of the car during your life?" Hurley asked.
