8 charged in bust at reggae festival [CA]

Pot and reggae. Imagine that...

8 charged in bust at reggae festival
February 17, 2007 - presstelegram.com

Eight people were arrested on suspicion of selling illegal drugs at the 26th Annual RaggaMuffins Festival at the Long Beach Arena on Saturday afternoon.

Undercover detectives observed the alleged illegal activity in a vendor's booth about 3:30 p.m. and made several purchases from that vendor, Detective Greg Roberts said.

The detectives then made the arrests and seized about five containers that allegedly contained various grades of marijuana, 16 vials of hashish oil, along with several ounces of solid hashish, Roberts said.

"We also got quite a bit of LSD, and over 500 marijuana brownies, 135 marijuana lollipops, and over 200 other candies laced with marijuana," Roberts said.

Seventeen electronic scales, 12 hiding compartments and about $4,000 cash were also reportedly confiscated.

The eight suspects are due for arraignment on Wednesday and are charged with counts of sales and possession for the purpose of sales, Roberts said.

The Narcotics, Vice, Special Events and South Division Patrol units were involved in the investigation.

"It's a nice music event for people to attend, but Long Beach won't tolerate illegal drugs sales or other illegal activity," Roberts said.

Because everybody knows there's nothing like a reggae music festival for those who don't use marijuana in some form or another.

This is terrible, I thought there almost an unwritten law about this. "You don't worry about drugs at a music festival, because these people aren't a problem."

Obviously the police don't share my sentiments. Bastards.

They didn't say whether they arrested anybody possessing personal use amounts.

It sounds like they were official vendors and were selling drugs perhaps??

Maybe not the best idea. Usually you do your illegal business in the parking lot at these events.

Around here that law stands. At some of the bigger events there will be police on hand, but you can do your drugs or sell your drugs in front of them without a problem...hell you can probably make a sale as they get off duty. They actually come for the music and to make sure no one gets hurt. Ive talked to a few while im there (although on large amounts of lsd and other substances) and just let them know how much I appreciated them (actually it was something about love, and thanks for not being pigs, and thanks for not arresting me lol) Now, this isnt my local police by any means, but the police force in a very small rave city located deep in the forest in the midwest. Then again, one of the adjacent cities has a large water tower painted yellow with a big smiley face and bowtie...its kinda like hippie land of the midwest lol.
