Marijuana Package Mailed Without Address

POSTED: 2:56 pm EST February 24, 2006

MILL VALLEY, Calif. -- A man who allegedly mailed a half-pound of marijuana without an address label on the package was arrested after authorities returned it to its sender.

Steven Coburn, 48, of Mill Valley was arrested Tuesday on suspicion of drug possession for sale and investigators found another 1 1/2 pounds of marijuana worth $10,000 at his home behind Tamalpais High School, said Det. Matt Lethin of the Marin County Major Crimes Task Force.

The private Corte Madera shipping company where Coburn tried to mail the package on Feb. 16 followed company protocol by opening the package to see whether the label was accidentally sealed inside, Lethin said.

"Once they opened it up and saw what was inside, they immediately called law enforcement," Lethin said.

Investigators said they are not sure whether Coburn forgot to affix the address label or it fell off, but it had a return address on it that led to Coburn.

He was booked into Marin County Jail and posted bail. A court date was set for March 8.

Even if it had my address I would deny it, and say someone stuck my address on there and sent it. Either way what a waste of a pound.:mad:

WOW! I want some of that!!! poor guy, done in by the bud!

I'd be crying for days if a pound of my weed was confiscated.

thats the least of your problems if your crying though.

The first thought that came to mind was... WTF did he put a real return addy on it???

Only to the jackass cops. :rolleyes:

Sure would have been a good day to be working at the shipping place for me...:smokin:

I think the biggest load of crap about this is the fact they went out of their way to stress the point of "company Protocall"... The fucken addy was probably removed to legitimize the bust...

They did not have the right to open packages IMO,the package had a return addy,return it,end of story

good thinking, this is probably true. If I were to mail 1 1/2 pound of weed I would quadruple check everything before sending it off.
