Bedford man charged with growing illicit mushrooms By BILL HUGHES, THE JOURNAL NEWS July 14, 2006
BEDFORD — A 27-year-old town man was arrested yesterday on felony drug charges after a specially designed closet for growing hallucinogenic mushrooms was found inside the Glen Road home where he was living, police said.
Westchester County and Bedford police executed a search warrant yesterday morning after conducting surveillance at 6 Glen Road, where they arrested Andrew Wiltse. A makeshift closet had been rigged with its own thermostat to regulate the temperature to grow the mushrooms, said Sgt. James Luciano of the county police narcotics unit.
There were charts on the walls where the temperature was recorded throughout the day — "a very involved process," Luciano said. "We found a mail-order kit and books on how to grow them (mushrooms) along with a few cases of mason jars. Apparently, the middle stage of the growing process involves putting them inside the jars."
Acting on a tip about suspected drug activity at the home, police set up surveillance and obtained the search warrant that was executed yesterday, Luciano said. In addition to about 40 grams of mushrooms, cocaine and drug paraphernalia were found, Luciano said.
Wiltse was charged with two counts of second-degree and one count of fifth-degree criminal possession of a controlled substance, all felonies.
The suspect also was charged with criminally using drug paraphernalia, a misdemeanor, and a public health law violation of manufacturing a controlled substance, also a misdemeanor. Bail information and a court date were unavailable last night.

Yeah, you would think that if there are books about growing the mushrooms right there in the apartment, the police would be able to quickly find out what the jars are actually for. Morons...

More likely, I think it was the cocaine. People coming and going to buy and use coke. Sounds like just another dealer trying to add to his inventory. If it was just mushrooms, probably nothing would have happened.(Meaning that it wouldn't have look suspicious.)
