THE drug busts have kept rolling on across the Coffs Coast with another multi-million dollar cannabis seizure near Coffs Harbour announced.

Coffs Harbour Target Action Group officers have made the significant haul in the Bongil Bongil National Park.

Police say detectives acted on public information, and with the assistance of the Dog Unit, to locate 1395 mature cannabis plans, with an estimated street value of $2.79 million.

The haul came after an extensive ground search of the forest to the west of the National Park, near Slarkes Rd, on Friday.

The plants were seized and subsequently destroyed.

Police are continuing their investigations into the cultivation and are attempting to identify and find those responsible for the cannabis crop.

Anyone with information that could assist police with their inquiries or noticed suspicious activity in the vicinity of Slarkes Road is asked to contact Coffs Harbour detectives or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

They can give themselves a nice big pat on the back knowing that they have done absolutely nothing to curb the supply of cannabis to underage children and the mentally ill like they so commonly speculate. I bet that was 0.01% of the cannabis that goes to "market."

 

Another big wollop of Australian tax payers dollars up in smoke

... and the mentally ill like they so commonly speculate...

 

I know someone who spent a few weeks in a mental institute recently (related to pharmaceuticals) and this person witnessed cannabis being dealt by a patient to other patients.

 

This person told the staff (which I disagree with since the actions of these people did not impose on said person) and they did nothing. Now, why wouldn't the staff act on this if it was so dangerous? Probably because they know when the patients have had their daily toke, they become calm and much easier to handle.
