Ohio High School 17-Year-Old Kingpin Arrested in Major Drug Bust

Ohio police have arrested an alleged drug kingpin, a 17-year-old accused of running a multimillion dollar ring that distributed high-grade marijuana through two school districts and netted $20,000 a month.
When cops raided the boy's bedroom at his parents' home, they found over $6,000 in cash, prosecutors said. Authorities have not released the student's name, because he was a 16-year-old minor at the time he committed the alleged drug deals. Warren County Prosecutor David Fornshell said the boy will be tried as juvenile.
Cops first became aware of a high-grade hydroponic strain of marijuana being sold for $350-$400 an ounce in the Mason school district near Cincinnati last year. An undercover agent began making buys at Mason High School, where the teenager was a student, and uncovered a dealing operation headed by the arrested student.
"The undercover officer uncovered six students or former students working for that individual and trafficking drugs in two school districts," Fornshell told ABC News. "The group supplied an overwhelming amount of marijuana in the Mason and King school districts," Fornshell said.
The marijuana previously sold in the areas was a lower-grade variety smuggled into the U.S. through the border, but the weed they began seeing last year was a much more expensive product. The student helped lead cops to uncover a major grow operation, run by locals out of warehouses and other buildings in three nearby towns. Six other adult individuals were ultimately arrested for their role in growing and distributing the drug. Authorities seized 600 plants from the three grow houses, with an estimated street value of $3 million. All of the individuals have been indicted by a grand jury, but have yet to be arraigned or enter pleas.

imagine how setup his life was, and probably WILL be. From what i see, when people get fucked for drugs (without emphasis in the business), they don't quit, it's harder to go back to normal, they go back.
WHen he starts again, he's going tohave probably learned some things, and might step things up, might even become the more dangerous type to protect himself.
shame...

that seems a bit more like an estimate for anything under 1k$.
But from that, the articles wording, and how quickly enforcement picked up on this, it mustve been some pretty high-grade shit

High grade typically doesnt yield 12.5. Sure you could pull 12.5oz of some decent sativa buds outdoors but it's not going to be high grade.

not getting the multimillion dollar ring. if he was making 1mil, how does $20,000 a month add up to that. he wouldve been drug dealing at 13. sounds like a kid who supplied a bunch of high school kids in the area got pinched and the cops of fluffing it up

i think the cops just took every person involved, and added up the POTENTIAL revenue, plants, packaged, seeds etc
sure doesn't seem like much a threat to a community, now everyone theres gonna fuck up their lungs wasting even MORE money on a larger amount of shitty weed

This kid should be allowed to run a goddamn dispensary if he's able to grow that primo of bud. Christ, would those freakin' sausage link cops rather some gangster kid buys a brick of trash from the cartels and sell that to his buddies? I say if it's domestic, leave it the fuck alone!

Fucking gold. So did this kid bump El Chapo Guzman from the Forbes World's Most Powerful Kingpin top spot with his 6 grand stuffed in a Nike shoe box under his race car bed?
