Marijuana grower killed by own booby trap

A New York man died after being nearly decapitated by a booby trap he set to protect marijuana plants on his property. Daniel R. Ricketts, 50, who owns property and a residence on Saw Mill Road in Albany County, was identified as the victim on Sunday, the Times Union reports.
Albany County Sheriff Craig Apple said Ricketts was driving an ATV on his property on Saturday afternoon when he was nearly decapitated after running into a nearly invisible wire that was part of fortifications he made near four large marijuana plants.
The wire appeared to be the type used in pianos, but Apple said it’s unclear what purpose it served as a security measure. Other components of the booby traps included barbed wire and a leg trap similar to those used to trap coyotes. Alcohol may have been a factor in the accident, Apple said. An investigation is ongoing.

Yeah, it's always alcohol. It sounds like this dude had access to some good drugs, why bother with the alcohol?

It sucks that he died but he shouldn't really be setting up a trap that could be used to kill someone for wondering onto his plants

I disagree. Its a source of income/medicine and its on his property. He has every right to accidently kill himself in the name of "no trespassing or ill kill your ass"
No sarcasm really just mild disagreement

Well, we obviously know the trap was effective...
"Apple said it’s unclear what purpose it served as a security measure" I guess they mean besides decapitating people on atvs or dirtbikes..

But if the trap kills he has a dead body on his hands, he can't tell the police that he used the trap to stop people from trespassing onto his property and stealing his weed plants (because he shouldn't be growing weed in the first place) and he can't hide the body because family and friends will report the missing person.

Well either way you'd lose your plants; one way you just lose your plants, the other way you'd lose your plants, the police get to swarm all over your property (btw good luck destroying all the incriminating evidence on your property), and somebody dies. In other words I still think using a trap that could kill is a bad idea.

I don't think I understand; are you planning on making a killer trap with sticky paper?

i agree with dark3st. i think that is exactly what you would say to the police in this situation. "this person trespassed onto my property and died in a trap. please come get rid of the body". i would not however want deathtraps on my own land just because accidents happen.

Jesus this is one of the dumbest things I've read in a while. I feel bad for the guy, but damn.... seems almost like "karma."

My guess would be the size. I don't mind it, personally. But that's the only thing I could guess. I've seen worse. Ones where the actual picture is terrible, or grating, and not just large....
