Due to its current legal status on both a federal level and in 21 individual states, the marijuana black market is still as relevant as ever. While many states are beginning to embrace the plant, at least for medicinal purposes, pot dealers will always seemingly have a place in society until cannabis is legal on a federal level. And even then, there’s no telling how long it would take for a black market to be ultimately squashed, especially considering the laundry lists of regulations most recreational states have to abide by.
So considering the current landscape, there’s no shortage of drug deals, and in this case, drug deals gone wrong. This was most certainly the case over the weekend, but this wasn’t your typical botched attempt. We’re talking about losing over 3,300 grams of high-quality weed here.
The Bungled Attempt: Over 3,300 Grams Of Weed Falls Off Trailer On i-80
The screw-up of a lifetime happened around 3 P.M Friday afternoon on Interstate 80 near Odessa, Nebraska. A package fell off a flatbed trailer being pulled by a Dodge Ram. Well, accidents happen. Except, instead of just taking it as a loss, the owner of the package actually called the Nebraska State Patrol, reporting that their parcel had fallen off the truck on the highway.
One trooper went to search for the package, while one went to meet up with the vehicle. However, the trooper was astonished to find out the package was stuffed to the brim with cannabis. This then prompted the two troopers to conduct a search of the vehicle, who then found a hidden compartment on the undercarriage of the trailer.
