I think the 750k included the harvest street value...not sure tho. Didnt pay to much attention to it just thought it was cool.Elaborate yes. $750,000 worth of equipment....NOT. Dumb cops and DEA always inflate the street values and equipment costs not only to justify their own budgets, (as well as increase them) but to help nail the accused to the wall. After all, people like those guys are totally damaging society and ruining lives. It's such bullshit. Notice the firefighter was holding down a full time job and serving the community. Yeah, it's probably better if taxpayers pick up the tab for their incarceration instead though. Idiots!!
Again I think it goes off the estimated street value where every dollar is worth 3-4 dollars i.e....There's no way in hell that was $750,000 worth of bud. That figure is a wild exaggeration at best.
The funny thing about that is I think it's all local and I'm pretty sure that Maine has medical laws passed. There were clearly no federal arrests in what they showed. Also they say the fireman is just a 'suspect' but they werent holding him. I know there are a bunch of HUGE medical growers in canada and one in Rhode Island so maybe he's not gunna get too much of a hit. I dunno. I just thought all this was interesting and how it only got that small segment on the News. I looked all over the web for more info and only found the same shit. I dunno, I'm still new to all this and havent been over many laws and are nowhere near the caliber grower that those guys are but i found some good role models...lol. Any1 have ne thoughts or things to add?That is our society. Take a fireman with a clean record and put him in jail and then put a blemish on his record so that he can not get another decent job. Over a plant.
probly some fucker he worked with and thought he could trust ratted him outThis kinda worries me because Maine is a hell-of-alot more marijuana friendly than where I live.
But then again their grow op is 100 times bigger than mine.
That looked like the perfect place to grow too. In the basement of an isolated house in the woods.
I'm curious on how the cops found out.
This just interested me since im from canada, but what huge growers are you talking about? Like caretakers or something?The funny thing about that is I think it's all local and I'm pretty sure that Maine has medical laws passed. There were clearly no federal arrests in what they showed.

Not sure "exactly" where he is located but he runs and operates a 'legal' medical operation that is bigger than anything I have ever seen before. He distributes to 5 or 6 people. My friend claims he saw him on a TV program but I read an article on his operation bout 6 or 7 months ago. I'll see if I can dig up any info or at least locate the article so I don't sound like a shmuck.This just interested me since im from canada, but what huge growers are you talking about?

What a waste of money, they take somebody who is so vital and important to society and then jail him. Man that makes sense.
