Fairhope Safe Opened, Marijuana Found Inside

Safe closed since '71 opened

Fri, Jun 20, 2008 11:08 am


Source: blog.al.com

 

 



The event was planned and advertised weeks ago: At the new Fairhope Museum of History, officials would open a city safe that had been abandoned and unused since 1971.

 

What would be inside? Nothing? Old city records?

 

This morning, a crowd of nearly 30 Fairhopers watched as a locksmith lifted away its heavy, black door. A few called out the obvious -- its shelves were filled with marijuana. The safe apparently had last been used by the Police Department prior to 1971 to store drug evidence.

 

Among the safe's items were a green diary with a peace symbol drawn on its front and several match boxes filled with dry, 37-year-old dope.

 

Why was this evidence left behind or forgotten?

 

"That's not the sort of historical question we'd wanted to have to ask," said Donnie Barrett, the museum's director. "But it's better than nothing."
