Wrong number leads to pot arrests
Party foul
Thursday, March 6, 2003 Posted: 10:47 AM EST (1547 GMT)
PALM SPRINGS, California (AP) -- Police found more than 75 marijuana plants inside a house after a woman who lived there mistakenly called 911 instead of 411.
Police said the woman dialed 911 shortly after 11:20 a.m. Tuesday. When she hung up, a police dispatcher called the number right back, and someone hung up again, police Sgt. Dan Rose said.
Two officers went to the house and found 76 plants valued at $76,000 growing in a room with sophisticated lighting. Officers also found three handguns and other weapons inside the house.
"We know something is going on, but we don't know what," Rose said.
A man, who was not immediately identified, gave police a prescription for medical marijuana. However, the quantity of plants made police suspicious, so they began investigating the authenticity of the prescription, Rose said. The man was arrested for investigation of cultivation and possession of marijuana for sale.
Another man who tried to run from police was arrested for investigation of parole violations and was sent back to state prison Wednesday.
The woman who misdialed was not arrested

Thats pretty funny. But why wasn't the woman arrested and how were the men and the woman related? She could have been in on the growing operation.

My friend was telling me about this last night, and it was all over the news. Man, if she had just said she dialed the wrong number instead of being a dumb ass and hanging up, all of this wouldn't have happened. I mean who wouldn't know that if you hang up on a 911 call, they'd send the police out.

Insert an "I think" mentally in front of eveything I say that seems sketchy, because I certainly don't KNOW much. Also; feel free to yell at me.

In the US the courts consider any plant to be one pound regardless of size, quality, or sex. If you get caught with two male seedlings the courts still call that two pounds of bud at street prices.
