Elderly Couple Gets 5 Pounds Of Marijuana In The Mail

On Wednesday an elderly couple in Pennsylvania received a 5-pound brick of cannabis via UPS, worth $20,000. When the couple realized they didn’t recognize the name on the package, they put it on their porch thinking the owner would retrieve it.

When no one did, they opened the package up and discovered the marijuana brick. They alerted the police, who say the return address is a fake one in Arizona. The police also say the cannabis was packed in styrofoam lining to prevent detection by dogs.

Authorities suspect this was a “trial run” by drug traffickers to test the neighborhood as a possible drop point for product. Basically a scout will watch for a package to arrive, go up and sign for it, and walk away with the drugs.

If that’s true, then one shouldn’t be so quick to jump for joy if they get a brick of weed in the mail. Dealers may be watching, and they may want their weed. Another lovely side effect of prohibition and the ridiculous profit margins it creates.

    That $@*% is worth $20,000!?!?!!!! I don’t think so! I wouldn’t pay $20 for all 5 pounds of it! It looks like hay and dirt compressed together.

    LOL, the reporter calls it “high grade” marijuana. I don’t think I’ve ever seen such “low grade” marijuana in my life. The dogs probably didn’t detect it because it just smelled like sh*t.

    I haven’t seen such crap weed in a long time! Looks like mexicali weed, the kind that they brick to bring over the border. Def. not worth 20,000!! That’s 4,000 a pound for that?? What a joke! End prohibition so plants don’t have to suffer the injustice of turning out to look that way.. man who smokes that stuff?
    I love how they inflate the value on garbage.

    If I got a package like that, the next thing I would do would be to walk out of the supermarket with half a case of Duncan Hines Brownie Mix.
