At least the turkey bags look pretty full.
It always breaks my heart to see nice fluffy nugs compressed until a pound fits into a shoebox.

Bummer for the dude but from the cops side you wonder what the point is?

The dope dog gets an extra biscuit but it coulda been 13,000 pounds of weed and it would still be a misdemeanor.

He’s just a Giglio and everywhere he goes people know the part he’s playing.

Nice that he’s rocking a rainbow shirt during pride month.

How lucky could they have been, during a “traffic violation” to just happen to have a narco dog and find 130 lbs of weed. Is that what a FCSO calls a mug shot?

Am guessing the Cash he encountered was not the CASH he hoped for!
I wonder what “traffic violation” he was pulled over for???

He should have made three trips out of that amount.
He would still have 2/3 left for lawyer bills if he got caught once

I know a woman who is making dream pillows filled with weed now. Everytime you roll over in your sleep you get a fresh new waft of great smells. It’s cheap enough now and her pillows are popular…talk about some good dreams!

You still have to play games with the government. A government that wants you TAXATION from your weed.
He is now guilty of TAX evasion.

Springer spaniel. If you are a transporter, you should be very worried if they have that breed when they pull you over. They are trained to smell just about anything. In fact, they can be trained to smell a hidden gun and all sorts of types of electronics. Weed is old hat for them. So if you think you can hide your weed in 40 layers of seal a meal plastic dipped in detergent and coffee grounds, ya ll still gonna get caught. I suggest another line of work in which paying income taxes is involved. In that way, you can just pet the dog when you get pulled over for speeding and won’t get a free trip to the pink house c/o the Fresno Police Department.
