I simply wanna know more about this guy. I can see taking his money, but none of his previous encounters were ever violent and the dude is fucking old. It would be a waste of resources to lock a guy up at this point. Besides why do they hate this entrepreneur who did a great job all these years

Seriously, I want to know more about this dude. I'm sure he's got some awesome stories from accumulating that amount of wealth. Plus it doesn't seem like he really enjoyed his massive fortune. Perhaps he just loved the lifestyle, and obviously was pretty clever

One of the better yahoo news stories I've read, with regards to quality.

Damn, what was this guy doing all this for if he wasn't enjoying it? Plus I'm surprised he had the tenacity to continue despite previous run ins.

Finally, why did he keep records which were easily taken?

Why? For the rush of curse. I know a few older men that like to live like they have nothing to loose . Cause they are 75 and 80 they also think what are they going to do to me ? Living off social security is about the same . If you don't have alot of close family.

1992, 20 fucking years of making bank. Weird run in with the law. We're talking crashing a plane with money coming out of the sky and the dude walks.

I suppose you are right he could just be doing it for the thrill. Even that is interesting to me, but I'm a fan of good stories

Often as not, the most entertaining part of any yahoo story is the discussion in the comments.

On a similar note......" A pilot who initially claimed his small plane's cargo was hot water tanks has admitted it was actually 252 pounds of marijuana......."

If you're not paying taxes you can bet the IRS will come after you. Seriously though, you could be a contract killer and list it as your profession and they wouldn't care or contact the criminal authorities - so long as you paid taxes on your earnings.

Probably a typical overzealous traffic stop though, poor old guy... or should I say rich old guy. Like he doesn't have a few million buried in a hole somewhere.

Really thought the u fortunate reality of it, no matter how doscile or nice of a guy he is, not many people have access to 300 lbs so he was probably dealing with some unsavory characters. So as much as I hate to go "drug war blah blah" on a pot forum, he was probably grabbing from a cartel. Im not trying to say the act in and of itself was wrong but supporting drug cartels and funding them essentially is not ok by me given the bad rap they bring to mj.
Now mind you my idea of his source is pure speculation but the odds are pretty high that what he was moving came over the border.
Fun fact my mom remembers that plane crash and was kinda amazed no charges came of it, suppose they would rather take that fat stack over a bust though.

300lbs isn't that much really. Certainly doesn't mean he's definitely involved with a cartel. There are many otherwise normal folks in my area putting out harvests bigger than that regularly and they otherwise have no criminal ties (not directly to organized crime anyway).

There are brokers who are totally independent as well.

I think you're in the ballpark. I figure it's a good chance he was a paid 'mule'. Pot up, money back. That's a long drive w/o tokin up. :x

Like I said it was speculation, he has been operable since late 70s (maybe earlier) and in the us (atleast to me, maybe I am weird) 300 lbs is a lot and is hard to have go unnoticed. We will prob never know who the source was but my whole point was you dont cultivate 300 lbs and not have some shady dealings happen just given the experience I have had grabbing an elbow myself.

Idk about muling it, maybe when he had the single engine plane. although if he was muling he has been pretty succesful over the last two decades. They should get a screen writer to work with this dude though cus the stories he has are probably epic.
Side note I wonder if they walked a dog around his truck? Saw an episode of DEA the show where some dude had a shit ton of coke stashed under his bed liner, something like 40kgs so maybe there is some bricks in that truck? Might have to go to the police auction for his truck lol

While I totally agree with you on cartels (especially in regard to MJ publicity, fucking up forestlands etc) it's hard to blame them. They are simply a reaction to the US drug demand and the policies which have made it so lucrative.

Yeah I could go on and on about how the US government has inadvertently (and often times knowingly) fueled the machine that is int'l drug cartels. But that is for another thread entirely lol. I mean the numbers say it better than I can, 60% of their profits come from ganja.... Legalize it and you leave them financially bleeding and looking for new income, course there is so much money to be made by them by keeping it illegal :finger::cuss:

I don't know. I've dealt with what could be unsavory characters but shit just went down like any other form of transaction, unusual caveats sometimes enforced. No violence or the threat of violence needed. Sure at some point in the chain there was or easily could have been, I am not naive that there are terrible people that do terrible things. But in most instances it's nothing more than a buyer and a seller in non sanctioned transaction.
