[OH] Mushrooms found behind hidden walls, 5 people arrested

Drug bust: Mushrooms found behind hidden walls, at jewelry store
June 7, 2011 - newsnet5.com



WOOSTER, Ohio - Police in Wayne County broke up a drug ring that they said they have never dealt with before.

One suspect told them that he could make $1 million a year by making and selling mushrooms, NewsChannel5 partner ONN reported.

Fifty police officers with the DEA, state and local police seized thousands in cash, dozens of guns, and dozens of trays of mushrooms. Investigators said some of it was found at a Wooster jewelry store.

“In my 40 years of law enforcement, I’ve never seen anything like this,” said Wayne County Sheriff Tom Maurer.

Investigators searched seven homes and businesses in Wayne and Ashland counties.

Behind hidden walls and in basements they found containers of mushrooms

“They grind mushrooms, mix it with chocolate and put it in a mold shaped like hockey pucks," said David Smith with Medway Drug Enforcement Agency.

Five people were arrested including the jewelry store owner Bert Underwood and the alleged teacher of the mushroom cultivation crime ring was Brian Brown.

Police said Brown's 67-year-old mother Illne Bennett helped make the mushrooms so her 44-year-old unemployed son could make money. Her husband couldn't believe his wife is locked up and charged with cultivating drugs.

Investigators say more arrests and charges are pending.

I've actually been through Wooster, and it is a tiny bumfuck town. I never would have guessed a 1 million dollar operation was running there.

This is the same place luring people to their town with craigslist ads.



It is a bumfuck town, and I garauntee its not a million dollar operation.  dozens and dozens of trays?  That sounds like a few pound flush everytime.  Probably low end people making chocolates and selling them.  That town just doesnt see anything like this so they are blowing it up.  I can't believe it took 50 cops to get 5 people :facepalm:

Oh yea, the town probably has 50 cops total, and they all wanted to be in on the action since they don't have anything else going on.
