drug bust on holly springs road!

Published Jul. 22, 2008

So my mom told me this morning that the police found a huge patch of marijuana growing on Holly Springs Road. She said it was on WRAL and a few other news sites but now they're gone. Makes you wonder if there's a coverup, HMMM???

Or are the articles still there but she just can't find them anymore?

Anyone have any info?

Just "Google" map...Hollie Pines Rd, Harnett County, NC...That'll put you right on the spot. Notice the area and the other recent Mary jane farming venture are both located on 'deadend' roads. Could there be a subliminal message there?

That Harnett one is probably what she was thinking about. It's much closer to her given description than the one I linked to.

"The latest bust is only three miles from where marijuana plants, with a street value of $84 million, were discovered growing off Womack Road.

"We were concerned after finding that big (of an) operation that there were others operating in our county,” Rollins said.

It is not yet clear whether the latest marijuana operation is linked to last month's bust. In both cases, Rollins said he suspects drug dealers hired Mexican migrant workers as caretakers for the property"

I have to agree with your mother! She seems like a very smart lady. As much as I hate illegal immigrants and all of the rift raft they bring, I have to say that I think they grow better weed in mexico... must be something in the water!

"At least 5,000 plants, with a street value of $12 million, were growing near Hollie Pines and Holly Springs roads"

Joker's Wild, I guess I inherited my paranoia from my mom. She is fully convinced that the news media hides crime stories about illegal Mexicans because it would upset hispanic advocacy groups and the government doesn't want people to know how much crime is caused by them because they might demand they do something about it. Not that Mexicans are necessarily behind the pot patch, but she thinks they are. She thinks pretty much all crime is caused by them.

Mogwai, you could be right. Every time I call she talks about things she heard or read on the news but she can never remember any of the details. It makes it hard to figure out what the news story is actually about. I asked what part of Holly Springs Road it was on because I drive it going to Fuquay a lot, but she said all she remembered was that it was "over the county line." As far as I know both Holly Springs the town and the road are both fully within Wake County but she's had two strokes, so it's easy for her to get confused. I'll talk to her this afternoon to see if she's found the news article again or remembers any details more clearly. I want to get to the bottom of this because I live in a neighborhood just off Holly Springs Road and I want to make sure there's no pot growers next door!

Sounds like someone needs to lay off the Wacky Weed...

Why would WRAL "Cover up" anything regarding marijuana being found?

oooo... pretty pic....

LOL!

If my mom ever tried pot she would probably die. She's not exaclty in good health. But I guess that's what medicinal marijuana is for, hmmm....
