MAN CHARGED IN AMERICAN SAMOA POT BUST
WELLINGTON, New Zealand (RNZI, Feb. 8) – Criminal charges have been filed in American Samoa’s District Court against Iosefo Tauiliili for unlawful possession of marijuana.
He was taken into custody last week following a police raid of his home in the village of Pago Pago which produced seven large rubbish bags of freshly-cut marijuana.
The police found the bags in a space between the ceiling and the roof, apparently being laid there to be dried.
Criminal Intelligence and Investigative Bureau (CIIB) Commander Va’a Sunia, says the street value of the seized drugs ranges between US$40,000 and US$50,000.
The defendant remains in jail without bail to appear again on Friday.
If convicted he faces a term of five to ten years in prison and a hefty fine.

What began as another fire in San Francisco Thursday night turned out to be a sizable marijuana bust.
Just before 11pm, firefighters were called to a home on 20th between Taraval and Santiago in the city's Sunset District. They said there was a strong smell of marijuana coming from the building.
When police went inside, they said they found 2000 marijuana plants with a street value of $250,000 in the 2000-square-foot home. Investigators called it an elaborate state-of-the-art cultivation operation, and firefighters believe the complex wiring system for the heat lamps sparked the fire that prompted the original call.
Police say it took 2 1/2 hours to remove all the plants, equipment, and garbage bags full of marijuana from the house. There was no one at home at the time, and one neighbor told us that he never saw anyone coming in or out. Police say the property is a rental, and they are working to make an arrest.

Police made a drug bust at a Ferndale home last week while responding to a potential emergency, Local 4 reported.
Officers responded to the home to do a welfare check after a person who called 911 hung up on the dispatcher.
Police said officers became suspicious when the man who answered the door was uncooperative.

"He wouldn't allow them to enter the house and he refused to give his name to the officers," said Detective Lt. Norm Raymond, of the Ferndale Police Department.
After obtaining a warrant, officers went inside and found in the basement of the home: 83 marijuana plants, fertilizer, lights and other tools used to grow marijuana, police said.
Marlon Albert, 37, was arrested at the home. Ester Parker, 33, who rents the home, was also taken into custody, Local 4 reported.
"She was arrested at the border crossing going to Canada, and held until we went and picked her up," said Raymond.
Albert (pictured, above) and Parker (pictured, right) were both charged with delivering and manufacturing a controlled substance.

Orland Park police were being questioned late Monday regarding what may be the village's biggest drug bust ever.
Orland Park police and Illinois State Police raided a home in the 11100 block of 143rd Street about 10:30 a.m. and found an elaborate marijuana operation that had as many as 500 plants in various stages of growth, police Cmdr. Chuck Doll said.
"This is considerable," he said. "This is probably the biggest bust we've ever had."
The two men who lived at the home, ages 37 and 30, had not been charged as of late Monday, police said.
The bust was the result of a six-month investigation by Orland Park police, who learned of the operation during other, smaller busts.
The house, which is just outside village limits in unincorporated Orland Township, is just east of Wolf Road. The blue, two-story house is high on a hill and has a large teepee in the back yard that's visible from 143rd Street.
Plants were being grown in nearly every corner of the house and an adjacent garage, Doll said. He said large grow-lights and dehumidifiers also were used.
Doll said he hadn't been inside the teepee and didn't know if there were any plants being grown in there.
"This isn't just people just growing a couple of plants," Doll said. "This was quite extensive."
Doll did not know the estimated street value of the plants. He said police are investigating whether the marijuana was being sold in Orland Park.

MEQUON - Detective Rick Schnell didn't realize when he was making casts of footprints in the snow he and other officers would discover what was described as "a very elaborate marijuana-growing system."
Schnell said he was called out in the early morning hours of Jan. 13 to help connect a 19-year-old Mequon man to an attempted burglary.
"The parents didn't want to turn over the shoes to us so we came back with a search warrant," Schnell said.
When Mequon officers returned and searched the home, they found a marijuana-growing system in the attic which led to felony drug charges against Erik G. Schuchard, 19, of Mequon.
"It was quite the setup," Schnell said. "He had it rigged with fans and a kill switch so if someone were to go into the attic a trip wire would kill all of the power to the growing operation and no one would see it."
According to the criminal complaint, Mequon police said about 1:30 a.m. Jan. 13 someone tried to enter a garage on Columbia Drive, but caused the alarm to go off and woke the homeowner. When police were investigating the area, they discovered two sets of footprints in the snow near the attempted break-in. Mequon officers also reported seeing a car drive by the house on Columbia Drive twice.
Police said the license plate came back to an owner who lived in Milwaukee. After police stopped the car, driven by Patrick J. Pugely, 18, of Milwaukee, they matched his shoes to footprints near the garage. Police arrested Pugely who was charged with attempted burglary of a building or a dwelling, a felony, according to police.
When Pugely was being questioned by police, his cell phone rang and police noticed it was Schuchard calling. When questioned by police, Schuchard denied any involvement with the attempted burglary, but was arrested and taken to the police station for questioning.
During the search of Schuchard's home for his shoes, a police officer went into the attic, found an extension cord and followed it until he discovered the marijuana plants, Schnell said.
Police found 25 marijuana plants and plant containers, fertilizer and soil, according to the criminal complaint.
Schuchard confessed to aiding Pugely in the attempted burglary. He told police where his shoes were located and they matched the other set of prints in the snow.
Schnell said Schuchard was charged with manufacturing marijuana with intent to deliver, a felony charge. He faces up to 10 years in prison. He was also charged with attempted burglary.
If convicted, both Schuchard and Pugely could see 6 years and 3 months on the attempted burglary charge.
