They’ve been going hard out there last month or so. Many stories of enclosed trailers being profiled and pulled for no reason.

I wondered when they would figure out why all the enclosed trailers are all over the hills DUH

Really, no reason? The answer is in the question. The smallest infraction, or “odor ” is enough to release the hounds. Box trailer on 36, 299, 96, 101…….questionable, unfortunately.

I drive my enclosed trailer on the highway multiple times a week… it’s full of… tools. It is my tool box. I’ve been waiting for the day I get profiled and pulled over.

When the Emerald Triangle depression hits (soon), you can use the trailer to head on down the road to greener pastures.

Hellbilly, I was thinking the same thing. He had an actual ton of marijana, and got cited and released. You know its quite likely that he’ll get misdemeanor probation. Of course he probably has lost the ton of bud an the $22 grand, so it’s not exactly a slap on the wrist, but it wasn’t so long ago that he would have been facing serious prison time. Lets hope that next year the story will be that someone with a ton of marijuana got stopped, and the officer helped him get some directions to his destination.

Man o man that is a lot of dope! When it becomes fully legal does anyone have any idea of how they’ll deal with confiscated illegal pot? They used to just burn it, but now there’s a legal market. Will they still burn it?

Who knows. Maybe it was actually 2100 pounds and only 2060 reported. Or $40000 and they took half. Many stories about ive heard from others about that happening over the years. Im sure it still does. I mean seriously, 2000+ pounds and dude gets to leave with his freedom? Times have changed indeed.

Oh, I live in the mountains
I plant my seed in the ground
I grow the good sensamillia
I grow a- two thousand pounds

One ton of marijuana
I grow a one ton of marijuana
One ton of marijuana
I grow a one ton of marijuana

And when the sheriff he comes by
To charge me with drug abuse
I say hey man this is legal
It’s for my personal use

One ton of marijuana
I smoke a one ton of marijuana
One ton of marijuana
I smoke a one ton of marijuana

Now the stalk makes my paper
And the herb heals my eye
And the oil fuels my hemp car
And the exhaust gets me high

One ton of marijuana
I need a one ton of marijuana
One ton of marijuana
I need a one ton of marijuana

One ton of marijuana
We grow a one ton of marijuana — each!
One ton of marijuana
We grow a one ton of marijuana

I came home on 36 last night in conditions that weren’t fit for a seal, miserable driving weather with no vis. But there were a whole lot of enclosed trailers taking advantage of that situation. I’d say 2 out of 3 vehicles had enclosed trailers.

Excellent! Keep pulling them over and searching, confiscating and seizing! We have a nasty problem here and we need more officers doing this every day. However…Why don’t you just friggin’ bust it all year long when it’s stuck in the ground? Why let it all get harvested and then do road checks? Seems like an inefficient use of limited police resources.

Cited and released. Well that is maybe good for the tax payers and the jails but that is the last we will ever hear of Mr. Bonetti. What about the folks who owned all that weed. They may be rougher on Mr. Bonetti than the Law. Unless it was his, then it is just one bad year for an outlaw mega grower. My, how times have changed. I find myself thinking, with all that weed off the market, will the price go up?
And what about the follow up? Did he have property here? was it in the process of permitting? Was there a clear cut and un permitted grading? I would expect that LEO know these answers but I, for one, wish there was more follow up on these stories.
Kim does a great job, I only wish there was more follow up. Kim, could you use some help? Let the community know……

How you can help:

  • Take off your adblock (for just this site is an option)

    So the police have the right to pull a vehicle over for pulling an enclosed trailor over now?
    This is in violation of any American citizens right against illegal search and seizure.
    Maybe that’s why they just let a Nevada resident go home to Nevada, cause cannabis is rec. Legal there as well…..

    Based on the section of hwy 36 where he was pulled over, probable cause most likely for crossing the double yellow line.

    You might want to review the illegal search and seizure statutes. If you choose to drive, you do so knowing that you can be pulled over for any reason. Once the officer makes contact, they can often find probable cause (low standard) or even verbal-judo-chop the driver into giving voluntary consent (even if they’ve got a metric ton of herb).
    I believe that LEO’s May have extra leeway since Huffman had it declared a high volume drug trafficking area.
    Good luck out there. Make sure you don’t smoke yourself stupid before hitting the roads!
