Police Seize a Ton of Pot in Boston Apartment

Fri, Jun 04, 2010 4:13 pm

Share |


Police found 2,000 pounds of pot in a Boston-area apartment earlier this week. Prosecutors are calling the ton of cannabis “the single largest seizure of marijuana in Boston’s recent memory.”

 

However, despite the 40 plastic wrapped packages stacked to the ceiling of a third floor apartment, Edgar Gonzalez, the man accused of possessing all the pot, claims he had no idea it was there.

 

Police originally came to the building to execute an unrelated search warrant. However, when Gonzalez saw the officers, he ran. After being caught, Gonzalez explained to the police that he ran because “he thought they were looking for him.”

 

This aroused officers’ suspicion and a search warrant for Gonzalez’s apartment was obtained. Inside, cops found the stash with an estimated street value of $4 million.

Even more laughable than the idea that there is some almighty man who lives in the sky who has the ability to control the the destiny of every living being in the entire world? Both are laughable in their own respect, no answer is absolute. Agnosticism is the only theory of truth.

Your the blind one. I guess it came from algae, just like we were once apes. I guess in 1000 years from now we will evolve into superheroes. Evolution is the most laughable theory out there.

To the poster who called themselves obama lovers,

I am no suggesting everyone who smokes the rag weed tobacco is a racist, but I do know tobacco makes people bitter and unhappy. And unless they do a little pot now and then to even their moods out, the tobacco user is hard to be around due to their ragging on everything.

Look at rush with his nicotine stained fingernails.

I don't understand the notion that liberalism which means
# The state or quality of being liberal.
#

1. A political theory founded on the natural goodness of humans and the autonomy of the individual and favoring civil and political liberties, government by law with the consent of the governed, and protection from arbitrary authority.
2. often Liberalism The tenets or policies of a Liberal party.

# An economic theory in favor of laissez-faire, the free market, and the gold standard.

This is bad?

I believe the republicans want to take away all our freedoms, and dumb down society with their tobacco and synthetic heroin "Pain pills."

I think the lyrics of Bob Marley are not only beautiful, but the thoughts of kindness are needed here on earth more than ever. I know racisists who hate whites and blacks. So sad. They smoke the rag weed known as tobacco, spit pick their noses, and fist fight with one another. Tobacco sucks. So does war.

Until the philosophy which hold one race superior
And another Inferior Is finally And permanently
Discredited And abandoned
Everywhere is war
Me say war.

That until there no longer
First class and second class citizens of any nation

Until the color of a man's skin
Is of no more significance than the color of his eyes
Me say war.

That until the basic human rights Are equally guaranteed to all
Without regard to race Dis a war.

That until that day The dream of lasting peace,
World citizenship Rule of international morality
Will remain in but a fleeting illusion to be pursued,
But never attained Now everywhere is war, war.

Jun 6 2010, 3:03 pm

well mr. reality how do you asses the state of things then, by what means? I agree , the situation is not looking good for this guy, but if there's no direct contact proven there's still a chance he will get convicted by a judge and jury who won't considder the possibility that this guy is victim of whoever owned that ton-a-pot . C.S.I will provide clues but no D.N.A. match means you can't prove it , that's my point of view.

Jun 6 2010, 9:17 am

..: is the state of things as they actually exist rather than as they appear or may be thought to be . ( Perception )

The facts :(1) he ran when he saw the cops . ( nothing suggesting otherwise )
(2) He stated he thought they were looking for him ( nothing to suggest otherwise )
(3) He WAS wanted in immigration issues . ( nothing suggesting otherwise )
(4) He was caught with a shit load of weed in his apartment . ( nothing to suggest otherwise )
(5) He says he didn't know it was there .....( THE only thing in contrast with the rest of the story and the only thing prosecutors will have to dis-prove . I don't think anybody will have a hard time with that )

Question : how does perception change any of this ? Answer : it doesn't .
Reality ...have some .........

cause n' ff act

Jun 6 2010, 7:57 am

reality is subject to perception, because things happen it was only meant to be because of the perception of the people directly involved.In this case key factors are ;what is such an amount of pot doing being stacked up that way?Why did he run ?Why are people making a tabu out of using a herb?Why do we need to have borders?Why do legislators and law enforcers think it's normal to be fascists?Colour those factors and you'll get millions of opinions,who's right?Only God knows..

Hey "probable cause my ass "

Jun 6 2010, 6:22 am

This NEWS article is a NEWs article . Its NOT the governments case , its NOT the defenses case laid out before you . You certainly don't sound like a lawyer . But even if you were a lawyer , this isn't the place to get your facts as there are very little of them provided .
I don't think they'll let the guy go because the media didn't report everything as you would have liked . So , don't quit your day job and remember , reality is a good thing .

Jun 5 2010, 7:07 pm

the immigration thing is NOT CLEAR at all from the reports. They probably found out information relating to his citizenship or national status after they'd brought him down to the police station and done a comprehensive search on him, but certainly, no sooner. Puh-lease.

It has always been here and now after 9/11, the cops have more powers than ever...

Who is to say that 9/11 wasn't commited by our own goverenment, so they can exspand thier powers and strip us of more of our rights.

Some people know, like myself. I have seen it all in my town and I now know that it covers the entire USA.

Bottom line, it is how low will you go and how corrupt are you willing to be to advance and be on the good side of the law.

I have not smoked in over 8 years now and spoke out against a corrupt cop in my area and he responded by saying and I quote " I have changed my life for the better and I just wish he would" This was written in the local newspaper.

Now you see, Not only do you have to not Break any laws...But you also have to whorship the cops and call them heros, for commiting DOMESTIC TERRORISM on the poverty level people in this country....

It is just pure sickness. If you are willing to support them in these sick ways, you to can be in thier clique...

It is to much detail, for me to go into on here, but the bottom line is that there are some who can do anything and others that will be terrorised by these domestic terrorist AKA American law enforcement officials.

It really bothers me, that I am only one of a handful of people in America that relize this... HOW CAN PEOPLE BE SO BLIND....

I am not going to get religous here, but in the bible, it says That at the time of the end, people would think that what is WRONG is RIGHT and what was RIGHT is WRONG!

Jun 5 2010, 12:22 pm

The only issue here -rightfully- should have been, that he was keeping a lethal dose of cannabis above the first/ground floor. Yup a ton of pot falling on ya might just kill ya.

yeah

Jun 5 2010, 6:08 am

Okay, the guy was an idiot. Anyone that's ever been to jail knows not to run from the police. The police love the chase, they train for it. I really don't see the charges against the man being able to hold up in court though. I don't think his running was probable cause enough for a search warrant. I'd sure like to be downwind when they burn all those bales:)

To evil

Jun 5 2010, 5:56 am

He ran when he saw the cops . He told the cops he thought they were looking for him . They WERE looking for him on a immigration matter . All the probable cause needed . Proving it was his stash has already been established ie: it was in his apartment . The " i didn't know it was there "
statement wouldn't fly anywhere . He got caught due to his own actions ...... the end .

Jun 5 2010, 3:55 am

okay cop there are real drugs that need to be taken care of out there, weed is not a drug . i have been smoking for about 10 years now and have never done any other drug, in my life ( unless u say alcohol a drug) and im fine. i have a full time job making more money then my dad who a firefighter, i went to the doc... the other day and he says im as healthy as a 27 year old can be. now i have friends that use drung and i have seen what it dose to them, and there fuck up in the head so my point is take care of the drug not a plant.

you know the saddest thing is this countries biggest business is putting people in jail...I.E. "PRISONS", and all that goes with it....sad to think a country founded on freedom has the highest rate per-capita of any nation ...of prisoners...this fucked up country only wants you in jail...and to take all your possesions and sell it all....so if they make a "mistake" and raid you, its ok for them because you are the one under arrest....now you get to become a "PRISONER"

wow, police these days...

Jun 4 2010, 9:25 pm

yeah wtf? if the police are in the building for an unrelated matter, with a search warrant for an apartment and person unrelated to this man, and they see this man running, what gives them cause to seize this man? who has no relation to the aforementioned business? and then the police bring charges on this guy? fuck the police! you know they're a bunch of liars... this is the most bullshit story I've ever heard. You know they had some sort of other info.

personal use, what else, what do you expect now that they don't have to worry about the Constitution and Civil Rights.
Just check out the news every single day they make a new law to target our rights, there are no rights left pretty much once they can take your Citizenship if they feel like you talk too much about freedom.

Jun 4 2010, 4:32 pm

He should have his lawyer challange the warrant.

What is the probable cause here???

Because he ran??? Wow, it seems the cops are getting away more these days, when not having true probable cause...

They didn't smell anything, it didn't say he was under the influance, All he did was ran...

How does this warrant and warrant?
