Bixby Police arrest six people illegally picking mushrooms growing in a field.

Officers say they were using them get high.

The so-called psychedelic mushrooms typically grow on cattle manure; They're a hallucinogen.

The first two suspects were caught trespassing on a sod farmer's land with 11 bags of mushrooms, weighing nearly 8 pounds.

The other four were arrested just a couple of days later in the same field.

Officer Eric Smoot say the illegal drug was worth about $40,000.

The suspects were all arrested on felony counts of possessing a controlled and dangerous substance, along with trespassing.

Shrooms are worth five grand per pound in Oklahoma?

No way! Officer Smoot is trippin' even worse than the folks he busted!

I think my math is right...

Using the going price of $5 per one dry gram or ten fresh grams, the most 8 pounds of fresh 'pychedelic' mushrooms would be valued at would be $1800. Using the same math, in order for mushrooms to be worth $40,000 you would need at least 180 pounds.

I tried to leave this comment on the kjrh website, but I couldn't get it to accept it.

the incompetence of the cops when it comes to valuing drugs never ceases to amaze me...

after i got busted, the first time in court they tried to make out that my stash was worth £14,000...

by the end of my trial their estimate had dropped to £2,500... fucking asshats.

Hmmm... nearly 8 pounds wet is around 280g dry.  That's around $140 per gram... or around $500 per dose (at the quoted value).  A bit ... exaggerated.

I don't see the need to have 11 bags and be trespassing without a good reason. Maybe for instance you were searching for your lost dog and had a dog's leash, a picture of your dog, etc...but to be tresspassing with 11 different bags - that's asking to get caught.  Must be a good field though.  Too bad.

I wonder if that lying ass pig knew damn well that shit wasn't worth that much.
  ...and since were on the topic, how much are they really worth? I read the other posts, but is that written in stone? I wonder what they used to charge in Amsterdam for fresh shrooms?
  I'm really curious now about just how much they really are worth...

Stupid pigs. It's somewhat frightening that the mentally degenerate members of society (with king-sized inferiority complexes to boot) are the ones enforcing the law.

Thats fucking sick.  Law enforcers and the government in general have no clue about the substances that they are using to arrest people and ruin their lives.  How can you make a desision on something you have no clue about.  Especially when you are about to fuck up someones life over it.  Im embarrased to live in this country sometimes.

That right there proves the have no idea what they are talking about.  No one ever trips on shrooms and talks about how "high" they got.  Thats what weed and coke and meth etc are for.

And they dont even have the common sense to know that 90 percent of their so called "8 pounds" is water?  8 pounds wet is less than 1 pound dry.  Which has a 4500 street value, and thats if you sold 10 dollars a gram, every gram no price breaks, and who does that? 

Seriously, 40,000 DOLLARS!!!!!! How do they sleep at night?  Are they just trying to ruin peoples lives?

My friends in Tulsa tell me if you can find any that they go for $10/gram sometimes higher. I am surprised to see this article though active mushrooms in OK are usually hard to find. Maybe things have change since I lived there.

When I was there two years ago I paid 15 euros for a package, which was one dose.

Oh yeah... the cops and their magic scales.

One time I was in court in Florida, and they dragged some poor bastard whom they had kept locked up since he was unable to make the bail bond.

Anyway, the dude was busted for felony cultivation of cannabis. They had two paper shopping bags full of the sorriest, most stalky crap anybody ever saw. Not worth a crap, even to the grower himself.

But they had the guy charged with cultivation of over five poundsof weed!

Turns out that they weighed the dirt that came up along with the roots.

The judge got mad and just threw it out. But the dude did three months waiting for his trial to come up anyway.

That's a worse crime than the "crime" he was charged with. But that's Florida for you...

How fucking stupid do you have to be to trespass on some sod farmers land picking illegal mushrooms. I am surprised the farmer didn't shoot their asses. Legally he could have shot them dead. They deserved to be arrested just for stealing magic mushrooms from him. I bet he had his gun ready!!

The farmer probably shat his pants when he realized how much money he could have made from his property! $40,000 was probably more than the worth of the crops or animals he raised.
