Long time lurker, first time poster.
I've used this forum as a resource for a good long time - but have never registered.
Sadly I do it only now because I was busted last week.
My wife and I have a dropcam at the house and noticed two black teenagers breaking in our house last week. She called me in a panic, and as I entered a panic I Ok'd her to call the cops. My mistake.
I never leave the door to the grow open - ever. But for some reason the day before I did - I thought I would be going back in later that night to take care of some things.
So I sped home knowing the cops would be searching my house and knowing they would find it. I was actually just as concerned for my dogs - as they are small dogs and the thieves obviously were not intimidated by them.
So of course the cops didn't catch the perps - but when I got home I knew the jig was up. I was promptly arrested.
Luckily the detectives that executed the search warrant were two of the coolest I had ever met. I don't want to get into too many details as I haven't even been charged yet. Obviously at the very least I'll be charged with manufacturing marijuana. The detectives however didn't put any other charges on me - but we'll see what the prosecutors decide to pick up on.
The detective even said: "I always say what someone does in their home is their business..." and "frankly I don't even think this should be illegal."
But my state is not cool with it - but luckily I live in a very high crime county and the court sees much much worse.
Anyhow I just needed to vent. I'll keep y'all updated. Got a great attorney from the NORML website I feel very good about.
