Pretty nice setup if you ask me.

"Sheriff's detectives say they began investigating the family earlier this month after stopping a package containing marijuana buds to the home"? What does that mean?

stupid fuck is all i can say.
I dont know abot a million either some where around 50k I would guess

LOL, jm420!

LEO always uses the value per gram or joint sales price to maximize the importance of "the bust" ! I doubt the growers ever thought it was any more than what it was worth. Got to keep those Federal Funds coming in ya know!

Standard operating procedure for at least 50 years now.

It said that they did a controlled delivery of a "package", I wonder what the fuck it was. I mean were they really that dumb, getting flowers shipped to them? Or was it something else?

If they are growing a supposed $1 million worth of buds in the basement, why are they getting product small enough to fit in a box ($20 thousand at the most) shipped to the million dollar grow-op? You are right, it doesn't make any sense.

They were smart enough to only have 97 plants.

That guy on the left looks like a meth addict.

lol this was already in another thread....the 1 million dollar bust was probably only generating 50k a year....they had like 3 1k lights HAH..the cops are such lame fucking jokes.

but these growers are dumb as hell for getting buds shipped to a grow house...not too bright.
