Illegal mushroom grow busted [OR]

Illegal mushroom grow busted
January 8, 2008 - 1190kex.com



Northeast Precinct officers dropped by the house at 4511 NE Alberta St. to make sure a 9-1-1 hang-up was not a real emergency. When they arrived, they noticed items that made them curious. After a little research, they had the information they needed to execute a search warrant for an illegal mushroom grow operation.

Police executed the search warrant Monday, taking the renters of the house into custody. Sgt. Stephanie Lourenco says they expected to find a few jars of mushrooms but there was much more.

"There are maybe 300 jars," she said, taking a guess. "I don't know, I'm taking a guess. We'll have to inventory and catalog everything."

Also inside: wheelbarrows full of manure, warming plates and tarps probably used to keep the space humid for growing and equipment to process and distribute the mushrooms after harvest.

Lourenco says it appears the operators recently harvested. She estimates that one gram of psilocybin mushrooms can sell for $35 on the street.

anyone who pays 35$ for one gram should be shot in the face.
anyone who claims this is the 'street' price should be shot in the face.

never, never, never let cops into your house. no matter what they are there to talk to you about, NEVER! if you let them in your front door to talk to you, even if they are right inside of your doorway, they have the right to search your house without a search warrant. if you need to speak to the police at your house, ask them to talk to you outside. if they ask to come in, simply say NO. if they want to look around, tell them to get a fucking search warrant.

that's what they get for selling drugs.

sounds fishy about the whole 'make sure a 9-1-1 hang-up was not a real emergency.' i bet someone's ol' lady had enough of it and wanted to fuck 'em up. real bad.

anyone else?

maybe she found his asian porn stash. or he was spending too much time on shroomery and she got fed up.

They are shameless in overstating the street value of seized drugs. Yesterday on the radio they said the police had seized 37 lbs of marijuana with a street value of $350,000.

I'd like to try that $9500/lb bud

The problem about is, that they probably would have not even been charged (ahh, fuck grammar)for " few glasses" of mushrooms (at least not here in Germany. Well probably not)). But 300??? (well, let's say, it was a 150)... Anyone who grows that amounts of mushroom has to caculate the consequenses of what they are doing, since this seems to be cultivating for selling.
Anyway, 35 bucks per gram is rediculous... Not even the most greedy dealer on open air festivals charges 35$ a gram :crazy:

It was painful watching that video. It's no surprise that the cop wouldn't know the correct terminology for anything, but geez.

Did she say "formiculine" instead of vermiculite?

I bet the police made mistakes in the warrant and the search. I hope that these folks can get a good lawyer. The police are for the most part clueless on mushrooms. + the law is not very clear in some states. The 35 per gram does not surprise me. I read about a fellow who was busted growing pot in a national forest. They found seedlings and charged him for full grown plants. Its a classic move start high and work the amount down in court. I hope all works out for them. And that the Feds dont get involved. Don't call 911 and hang up. Because the police will show up at you door.

I think they are maybe 5 dollars a gram, if you concede that a $20 for a 4 gram 8th is common, although at 3.5 gram NORMAL 8th that just means its even less. SWIM sold his surplus shrooms for $15 an 8th.

the good news here is supposedly they where just harvested and sold off, so they have less to charge them with, and the other good part is those drugs have "hit the streets" so to speak.
