My homepage has a strange news section. Im addicted to reading it. When a good one is on there I cant resist the urge to post it. The porn one is bt far my faviorte.

PAUL - A couple from Washington state faces charges after auto workers found more than 150 pounds of marijuana in their pickup's jerry-rigged gas tank and alerted police. The 48-year-old man and 62-year-old woman were being held in the Ramsey County jail on suspicion of possession of a controlled substance. They told investigators they were driving from Yakima, Wash., to Chicago, according to Kent Bailey, acting agent in charge of the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration's Twin Cities Rating: 5

If it were me, I'd say.

"1 OZ, and I won't tell anybody."

That's a fair deal

man I would be afraid that it would leak and gas would get all over the weed

If I found all that weed I wouldn't grass on them (pun). However if it was a hard drug I'd have to think twice, although I'm sure I wouldn't really wanna' be fucking with Coke dealers.

Were was AAA???

If I found that weed, I'd say give me 2lbs and I won't say anything.

Stupid mistake though. Their truck craps out so they take it to a shop? Surely they would have known they would have found it. Oh well, stupid people make us look better.

Also, 157 LBS at $157,000, that's only $1,000 per LB, and police always like to break down the costs into 1/8's to make the bust seem bigger, so I'm guessing the weed is probably not the best, but still, that's a shitty loss.

I was thinking the same thing after I read the $157,000 dollars for 157 lbs. $1000 a pound, must of not been the best...That is probably why such amatuers are driving it across country.

Couple with 150 pounds of marijuana won't face federal charges


No federal charges will be filed against a Washington state couple who were found in St. Paul with more than 150 pounds of marijuana in the gas tank of their pickup.

The man and woman were arrested but have since been released. The case has been turned over to the St. Paul Police Department, which will present its findings to Ramsey County prosecutors.

On Saturday, the couple stopped at a Midas shop when their pickup wouldn't run. A mechanic discovered the pickup had a recently modified fuel tank. A state trooper was called and found the tank held 157 pounds of marijuana -- with an estimated street value of about $157,000.

But federal authorities declined to prosecute the couple. The reason is that the federal Drug Enforcement Administration does not bring marijuana cases to the U.S. Attorney's office unless the confiscated amount is more than 500 pounds.

"I think it is unusual," Dakota County Attorney James Backstrom said, regarding a the lack of prosecution. "This is a significant quantity of marijuana that these people were caught with."

Fred Bruno, a defense attorney with experience defending drug cases in federal court, said he wasn't surprised by decision not to prosecute in federal court. He was not involved in the gas tank case.

"It's a big case by state standards but a small case by federal standards," Bruno said. "That amount would raise just about every eyebrow in the state judicial system, but maybe not many in the federal system."

That's just sad. I still find it hard to believe people get arrested for a plant they enjoy lol. But yeah that was pretty stupid to hide it in a gas tank.

They are lucky as hell to get released, but stupid as hell for bringing their truck with 157 lbs on cannabis to Midas.
