OCALA, Fla. (AP) — A 17-year-old boy was growing marijuana on vacant property owned by Ocala’s deputy police chief, authorities said.
Deputy Chief Greg Graham said he was told about the plants by neighbors on Saturday. He had bought the lot two months ago as an investment, the Ocala Star-Banner reported.
Deputies with the Martin County Sheriff’s Office confiscated nine potted marijuana plants on the lot.
Graham said he has known the teen, who was not identified because of his age, for several years.
“I have no idea why he picked my property,” Graham said.
A neighbor witnessed the teen in the wooded lot on Friday, according to a sheriff’s report. The lot was about 100 yards from the teen’s home. The neighbor said the teen’s presence on the lot seemed suspicious.
While the investigators were on the property, they spotted the teen walking toward it, according to the report. The teen admitted to investigators that the plants were his and that he smokes marijuana.
He also had pictures of the marijuana plants on his camera cell phone, according to the report.
The teen was charged with cultivation of marijuana and taken to the county’s Juvenile Assessment Center.

Yeah in texas its 17. You can'd get any of the benefits/priveleges that come along with becoming an adult but you get punished like one.

"I don't know why he'd pick my land"
"The land is 100 yards from his home"
Seems to me like he answered his own question.

Hah, that would be funny if the sheriff was made liable for the plants because they were on his land.

Seriously, I would have said I was looking for my baseball that my friend hit back there (being 100 yards from the kids house and all). They would have no proof at all since i would never take pictures of them with my phone.
I would have then turned it back around on them saying, "Well what kind of recent "Investment" did Mr.Sheriff just buy this vacant lot for? After all, the plants are on HIS property." Dumbass kid.

He could have denied it. Unless he had reason to believe they got him on tape over there.

He probably could have pulled that one off if he wasn't such a dumb-ass. It was on somebody else's land, he just had to be more secretive. Also shouldn't have had pictures, or told people it was his and he smoked weed.
