Traffic Stop Nets 50 Pounds of Pot

How dumb can they be? It looks like they could have at least afforded to buy an enclosed trailer if they wanted to haul "bails" of pot.


NEW CASTLE, Del. (AP) - Police say an officer spotted a huge load of marijuana in the bed of a pickup truck during a traffic stop in the New Castle area Friday night.
