A man in Montana now faces marijuana charges after plants were discovered on his property when police were investigating his 7-year old daughter being attacked by 4 bulldogs.

The girl was attacked on Dec. 31. Emergency responders met Standiford, Clarke and the girl at Creston School. Standiford initially refused to say where the attack occurred, but later directed them to his house.

Officers noticed a strong odor of marijuana coming from a shop and obtained a search warrant. They found 71 marijuana plants along with marijuana.

The girl, who sustained extensive injuries, said she and Clarke had been in the shop before she was attacked.

Another drawback of prohibition: people hesitate to report real crimes because they are afraid for being busted for victimless crimes. How many real criminals get away because people who shouldn’t be considered criminals are afraid of being arrested? This time it was an animal, but often times robberies go unreported because the people that got robbed have marijuana plants.

One day the madness will end, prohibition will be repealed and crime will go down across the board.
