I have a similar story.

Back when I was 13 and my father, stepmother, and I moved into our new house (previously owned by a man convicted of drug trafficing and money laundering) we found a safe under one of the shelfes in the master bedroom closet. It was bolted down from somewhere on the inside bottom of it, but was relativley cheaply constructed. We decided to pry the sucker open and found 4 bricks of weed, wrapped in cellophane. Now I didnt really realize what it was but my parents, both stoners in their younger years, decided it would be better to throw it out. My dad was making 800K a year so that little of weed wasnt much anyways.

Hindsight 20/20, I would have snatched that shit out of the trash SO quick...

Edit- We also had news crews out in front of our house a while after, it was a big deal in arizona. I'll see if I can dig up a news article.
