Mesa police: Mushroom grow room discovered

A bashed in door and blood from a pit-bull bite led police to two small children living next to a hallucinogenic mushroom grow room, Mesa police said Monday.
Officials were called to the complex at Southern Avenue and Longmore Drive about 8 p.m. Friday after neighbors reported hearing a man and a woman arguing in the parking lot.
When officers arrived, they approached an apartment and found what appeared to be blood outside the door.
Payton McKinnis, 19, and Delano Wells, 30, were found inside the apartment and told police two small children were sleeping in the back room.
Police said that while checking on the children, they discovered the grow room in one of the bedrooms. Shelving units, humidifiers, grow lamps, and several hundred hallucinogenic mushroom pods were found in the room, according to court documents.
McKinnis told police that she was responsible for growing the mushrooms and Wells sold them, and that the argument began after Wells became worried that police would discover the operation.
Wells began loading growing equipment from the apartment into his truck, and at one point kicked in the front door, which excited the pit bulls inside.
Court documents state that the dogs attacked Wells and bit McKinnis, causing the blood in front of the apartment.
The children inside, a 3-year-old and 2-year-old, were turned over to Child Protective Services.
Mesa police obtained a search warrant and all growing equipment was seized.
Wells was charged with manufacturing and possessing dangerous drugs to sell, disorderly conduct, criminal damage, and child endangerment.
McKinnis was charged with manufacturing and possessing dangerous drugs to sell, criminal damage, and child abuse.
Wells has been previously arrested for theft. McKinnis has no prior record.

Why do people do this to themselves? This guy is just as bas as Mexican cartels. They create violence and attention to bring law enforcement upon them. I don't think this guy deserves prison or losing his children because that will just make the children grow up without their parents. This in return will more than likely cause these kids to grow up and be drug addicts or trouble makers. Then the cycle will continue giving the law enforcement job security. They should build complexes so the children can live their with parents instead of locking parents away and taking children into the foster system where they will have probably more than 10 different parents in their life time. This confuses the kids and will make them worse. Taking children from parents is wrong and unmoral. These children grow up being a product of society and are less fortunate to have a great chance to succeed.

If this guy was too stupid and let the cops into his house where his mushroom equipment was, then he deserves his hids take away, because if it was this, then he probably would have just forgotten to feed them for a week or something.
Stupid shit

Agreed. Especially when there so stupid upon questioning they both open up and admit they were selling bringing a whole bunch more trouble that was not necessary since they probably wouldn't have been able to prove that, but no they come out and tell them everything.
Why don't people just understand they need to keep there damn mouths shut. Don't even talk to the police it's not worth it, it's not going to hurt your case and odds are opening your mouth will.

This is why I only grow shiitake and morels now. When the fuzz comes to kick in the door for being ignorant as to the type of mushroom growing and destroys my property doing it, there will be law suits on everyones desk from the mayor to the dog catcher...promise that. You never know what nosy neighbor wil call the fuzz for you and the wife getting into it.

It's pretty clear that many reporters are clueless.
Why do so many feel the need to comment when they see comments like this? Or "mushroom seeds" Or all the other variations on this?
Is there some contest I'm not aware of?

Where in the article, either as posted here or at the link, does it say they were growing in the kids room?
I'll help you out... it doesn't.

I enjoy trying to figure out what they are talking about.
But this time I'm stumped.

Yeah, when we decided to start growing edibles as a business, I chucked all the old cultures and supplies. My mentality is that we have to treat police contact as inevitable. They're going to show up with a warrant at some point, and when they do, they're not going to find shit and I'm gonna collect a nice fat check from the city for my trouble. And they won't ever bother showing up again, and even if they do, that's just another payday on my part.
Beat 'em at their own game, that's what I say.

We should never say people deserve to lose their children or go to prison. We all do stupid shit at some point or another, but saying people deserve to lose their children because of a civil liberty is wrong.

It's not being said because of a civil liberty.
It's being said because they did something outrageously stupid.
