Marijuana Drug Cache found in Home Depot vanities

[Bumrush99]

Home Depot

50 Pound bricks found in bathroom vanity cabinents?? What would you do?

I wouldn't even think of selling the drugs because I'm a coward when it comes to illegal activities that could land me in jail... But it would be tempting..

 

[Darthvoy]

send it to me

 

[Brutuskend]

Note to self.
Do more shopping at home depot.

 

[acemcmac]

I'd offload it to my drugdealer friends.

 

[CKent]

I would... uh... I forget. Gimme those doritos, man.

If you could sell it fast enough...100lbs. would be worth only 150K. "Street value" assumes you're selling the smallest quantities for the maximum amount--say 70$/0.25oz.= 448K--but your chances of getting caught increase significantly with more sales. If you were selling by the pound, though, 100lbs. wouldn't be all that difficult for a connected dealer.

 

[alien42]

you should have a poll option for both using and selling

 

[Trogdor91]

I bet there were 3 but he only "found" 2

 

[j00fek]

whish i bought that vanity!!!

 

[MX2]

I guarantee someone somewhere is paying dearly for this little fiasco

 

[tweakmm]

I don't know. I'd be real scared though.

Scared to keep it, scared to turn it in and scared to sell it.

I don't know what I'd do, I'd probably move to a different state or something. Chances are whoever has the connections to aquire that kind of weight/hide that kind of weight in Home Depot, probably has the connections to look at the surveilance tapes to see who found it.

Probably brick weed. That sh!t is nasty. I would try to sell it all for real cheap.

100 lbs for 145,000? Bad weed.

I thought a customer found it in something delivered? Anyway, someone with those kind of connections wouldn't use HD for logistical support would they?

 

[MisterJackson]

Home Depot does say they're the "Proud Sponsor of Father's Day"!!!

Truth was there were 4 bricks in there, not two. Don't ask how I know.

BTW, LOL at the photo in the article with all of the "greenery" in the front.

 

[destrekor]

sell some, use some... thats needs to be an option!

 

[vi edit]

How big is a 50 pound brick of weed?

 

[Miklebud]

Whoa, I live like 15 minutes from the Home Depot in Southwick! I need to go shopping for bathroom vanities!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[nakedfrog]

Wow, perfect distribution of the votes as of right now

That's bulk, so I'd say about the size of an alternator. Maybe a radiator?

Let's put it in electronic terms

Would this be like the size of a 13" TV? A 19"? 25"?

Actually, it sounds like a pretty good idea in regards to plausible deniability. I'm sure there are many Home Depot employes in that region who are in on the traffic and were going to/have been making serious cake. It appears as if someone dropped the ball big time in one way or another.
Getting the tapes or delivery records seems pretty trivial compared to moving major quantities of drugs around using Home Depot without raising some kind of suspicion.

 

[MisterJackson]

I think it was this dude....his eyes look suspect

Or it could have been these guys. I mean look a the suspicious plant in the background.

 

[ForumMaster]

police. i don't do any drugs. i don't even drink. and i'm a coward when it comes to doing illegal things.

 

[CKent]

For the volume, it depends how much it's compressed. I've seen a pound of brick (highly compressed, probably hydraulicly) before and it was around the size & shape of a large-ish textbook.

 

[Eli]

It would be mine.
