N a pre-planned operation, Murray Bridge police and CIB officers raided a cannabis crop worth more than one million dollars, 20 kilometres south-east of Yumali yesterday afternoon. No-one was arrested, but numerous forensic samples were taken from the scene. The crop was located in heritage scrub, a section of land farmers are not allowed to clear. Murray Bridge CIB Detective Senior Constable Darren Niblett said the crop was "reasonably large" for the area, with more than 500 plants. "It was quite difficult to spot, and unless you were doing a grid search of the area in a helicopter, you would have missed it," Detective Senior Constable Niblett said. "It was a similar siz…

There was a story on Today this morning about this article in The Bulletin. So I thought I'd dig it up to see what it said.... http://bulletin.ninemsn.com.au/bulletin/Ed...A256E1B00040E1C STONED WARRIORS Darwin's Robertson Barracks is home to some of Australia's finest frontline troops – it's also home to a festering drug culture with dangerous links to organised crime, Paul Toohey reports. A removalist sent to collect the belongings of a rifleman making an unscheduled exit from army life at Darwin's Robertson Barracks was stunned by just how little the soldier owned. "He had bugger-all," said the removalist. "After six years in the army, he had nothing to show …

My Dad began the new year by commenting on my plants and handing me a clipping from The Advertiser Friday, Juanuary 9, 2004 (p21) - yes, full page. I don't live with my parents, I'm well, well over 18. I don't read this newspaper because I don't trust it (and I think newspapers use a lot of paper). Can anyone comment on the article or on the ownership structures of these papers. Are they reputable ? Here is The Advertiser. I couldn't work out how to find the article text, entitled "Dancing with the deadly weed". My father believes everything he reads in the paper and this is a one paper town (or country, perhaps). I'd like to know if he's being fed bullshit. Thank…

http://www.theage.com.au/articles/2004/01/...3151208185.html By Trish Bolton January 5, 2004 People who smoke pot don't belong to a subculture, they're part of the mainstream. Australians don't really need an excuse to have a drink but it's that time of year where you can really drink up, indulge as much as you want; get drunk, smashed, blotto - no one will really mind. You can start drinking at the lunchtime barbie or picnic, down at the beach or while you're watching the cricket; you can do it in front of your parents and kids and with neighbours and friends. But if you want to roll one, have a choof or take a toke, you won't find the same warm reception at home…

Police found a man with 51 cannabis "joints" strapped to his leg when they searched him at a regional airport, Darwin Magistrates Court heard yesterday. Richard James Bell, 28, was a heavy cannabis smoker and it was for his own use, his lawyer said. Magistrate Dick Wallace said he noted a charge of supplying cannabis had been withdrawn. "I can accept that the cannabis was for personal use if I shut one eye," he said. While the facts did not say that Bell supplied anyone, the cannabis was in a form ready to be supplied. Bell, of Malak, pleaded guilty to possessing cannabis in a public place at Nguiu on Bathurst Island on February 21 last year. Prosecutor S…
