100kg of stale cannabis dumped in creek near Warrnambool

MORE than 100kg of cannabis dumped in a creek near Warrnambool was past its best before date, according to police.

 

The 71 packages discovered in Mount Emu Creek were found over two days from October 26 after packages were first discovered by a local farmer.

 

In an initial search of the creek police found 51 bags of the drug, before an anonymous tip a day later lead them to 18 more packages dumped nearby.

 

Valued at over $700,000, had it still been in a viable condition, the major haul would put the health of anyone attempting to use it in jeopardy and was no longer saleable.

 

It is believed to have been dumped between October 23 and October 26 by a person driving across the Warrymea Road Bridge in nearby Framlingham.

 

Police from Warrnambool’s Divisional Tasking Unit and Crime Investigation Unit are receiving support from the Drug Task Force with the drugs wrapped in a seemingly professional way.

 

Det Sen Sgt Mark Canavan, manager of the region's crime investigations, said the drugs were sheathed in tight, clear plastic and would have likely required the use of a commercial machine.

 

Anyone with any information or who finds similar packages is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or to visit www.crimestoppers.com.au (Don't hold your breath officer - KF)

Dealers tossed it so that the inside man in the force can redistribute it. Everyone in the force is an inside man.

 

Seriously doesn't it seem odd? Who calls the police when they see hundreds of bags of weed scattered around?

[Nymphetamine]

pretty sure alot of ppl would call the cops if they find drugs.(maybe u are being sarcastick and i didnt catch on) i resently watched some interviews of the ppl on the street in uk and they were asked the longterm effects of weed and most of them seemed pretty brain washed saying stuff like it destroys lives and couses mental problems.cancer and some said death. no wonder its not legal who would make some smoko legal when it will give u cancer and couse painfull death... oh wait the goverment and then they will make u pay 20 bucks a pack for it

Yeah I was being sarcastic. I'm just trying to go under a false assumption that ever person is a secret stoner in a joking sense.

If you think about it theres probably hundreds of pounds of trichrome coated tip being destoryed eveyday day by commercial growers in Australia. I mean think about how much bud is grown and sold thoughout the country everyday, yet no hash industry. They must be just destorying the tip.

 

Seems like a waste to me. But from the growers point of view it probably makes good sense. I mean large amounts of hash would be really hard to get rid of in Australia and if you get done with it the penalty is going to be much harsher than if you just get done with bud.

 

It would be nice to know a few commercial growers so you could help them dispense of it.
