February 26, 2007 - nbc10.com 20 Pounds Of Mystery Pot Delivered To Store
Workers at the Philadelphia boutique Fusion called police after unexpectedly receiving two buckets of marijuana totaling about 20 pounds on Saturday.
Police said the pot was worth about $90,000.
The first delivery arrived inside a five-gallon bucket delivered by FedEx on Saturday, and the second 10-pound shipment arrived about an hour later from a different delivery service, investigators said.
Both packages were from California and were addressed to the store, but no names were on the address labels. Police were still investigating and trying to figure out who the intended recipient really was.

In my case it may have because I probably would have passed out after opening the buckets . I would be really scetched out if that happened though. Obviously someone payed for it and they'd probably come looking for it.

I dont know...that much green shows up, i think id freak out. I dont know what I would do...
The drug user side of me would be in heaven.
The paranoid part of me would be looking over my shoulder. First, whos to say the cops werent waiting for someone to lay claim so they could arrest...and second, whoever that weed was for, they arent going to be very happy when they dont get it.
Really, that doesnt sound like a good situation to be put in.
Id take a few lbs and call the cops lol

Well, nothing will probably happen to him. Maybe a routine investigation. If he's squeaky clean and he called the cops right when he got the pot, then he can't really be to blame for anything.
Though technically, even if he didn't ask for it, he can be convicted of possession, because the crime of posession requires no mental desire to posess.
-------------------- "To do right is to know what you want. Now when you are dissatisfied with yourself it's because you are after something you don't really want. What objects are you proposing to yourself? Are they the objects you really value? If they are not, you are cheating yourself. I don't meant that if you chose to pursue the objects you most value, you will attain them; of course not. Your experience will tell you that. But success in getting after much labor what you really don't care for is the bitterest and most ridiculous failure." -George Santayana

I'd be too freaked out to just keep 20 lbs of mystery pot. But no matter how freaked out I'd be, the headline would read "19 pounds of mystery pot found at store".

That's probably one of the purest forms of entrapment. The cops can't send you pot and then bust you for accepting it. Unless you ment the cops new pot was in the bucket but they didn't send it. I think I'd probably bring it inside, check through the bucket making sure the only thing in there is weed and then bring it to a hideout or friends place of course making sure no one was following me

I would have that weed taken care of quick like!
I can't believe that someone would just throw away $90,000 (more like $40,000). That's just plain stupid.

how does one just go to the post office or wherever and send a bucket of buds to someone if not intending to have that person popped?i couldn't even gather the balls to walk a 5g. bucket into a shipping co. one time ,much less twice.you'd have to be a complete fuck up in life.

I worked at a General Motors plant in the 80's. One day, the people on the engine installation line pushed the stop button, bringing the whole line to a stop. They had opened up the next crate of engines and the crate was packed top to bottom with kilos of cocaine. There must have been a thousand pounds there. By the time I got close, GM security were already surrounding it and I couldn't get any. I figure somebody probably got killed over that stupid fuckup when the man opened his shipment of coke and found a load of 4.2L V-6's. RR

I worked at a gas station a few years back as second shift manager and someone came in to report they found a "big bag of marijuana" on the ground outside. I acted appalled and said I would call the cops! He said I should probably pick it up and hurry up and call. I agreed, promptly ran out to pick it up...then "called the cops" while he paid for his gas. I was really calling my friends to tell them. But anyway, I found a little over 2oz of decent herb and smoked it all.

I was walking down the street a couple years ago with a few close friends when I spotted the corner of what looked like an empty plastic bag barely protruding from under a news paper machine. Taking a few steps past the machine curiosity got the better of me... just to be certain I spun around and grabbed it... turned out to contain two ounces of really high quality herb. We tested the find while continuing our walk through a secluded alley. One of my companions suggested we go to his friend's house to sit on her porch swing as she just lived down the block, she wouldn‘t be at home but it wouldn‘t matter as they were close friends. After swinging for about 45 minutes an agitated looking older woman with too much old lady makeup stepped out of the house. Non of us recognized her. She immediately confronted us… “what the hell are you doing here?!?!?” As it turned out we went to the wrong house… on the wrong street. Free herb rocks! georgem

Who are these people!?
probably people who don't smoke a lot of weed or know people who do, who are more concerned about running their business than getting high, and wouldn't know what to do with 2 pounds of weed, let alone 20. you know, not everyone's first thought after receiving a shady delivery of enornmous amounts of illegal drugs is "wow! must be my lucky day!"
