According to the story, Turnbull and Steven stole half of Ryan’s marijuana crop. According to Ryan, nothing was taken. OK, so there is a discrepancy. Who is lying ?
Both sides have a reason to lie.
So I ask, where is the police evidence of the marijuana (other than a joint?) that was stolen by Turnbull and Steven? What other evidence was found at the house?
I think Radley deserves a Nobel Peace Prize nomination.
The Nobel Peace Prize is, by now, a worthless turd which stains its recipient with the taint of association to a long succession of pro-Marxist-dictatorship hacks (assuming the latest recipient doesn’t also fall, now predictably, into that category).
The reputation of Pulitzers isn’t much better, and is also frequently given to the same type of scumbum, but they’re the ones Radley’s reporting on this particular issue qualifies for.
(IMO, if he’s given an award for doing what any journalist in the country could have done if they’d given two runny shits and had three marbles rolling around upstairs, he should reject the award the way George C. Scott stiffed Hollywood’s recognition of “Patton” — True virtue neither desires nor needs the favor of manifest inferiors trying to puff up their own importance by bestowing awards.)
If it was such a ‘major grow operation’, then:
1) how did ‘Steven’ and Turnbull steal ‘half’ of it in a burglary?
and
2) how did Frederick get rid of a full half of a major grow with nothing left in only 3 days?
And why is there never any mention of the completely legal part of his ‘grow operation’? Hopefully that will come out in whatever trial, and cast doubt on the cops story that he was growing and selling pot.
Since Frederick was an occasional user, I would not be surprised if he was growing some marijuana for his own use. I would also not be surprised if the burglars stole some Japanese maples and both they and the police mistook them for marijuana.
There has been no evidence so far of Frederick selling marijuana to anyone and we would expect the police to have mentioned such evidence if they had it. If there was any marijuana there it was probably for personal use. And of course, the raid did not find any marijuana plants in the garage.
Wouldn’t it be awesome if the whole Chesapeake PD imploded like the Atlanta Vice Squad?
Keep hammering away, Radley. Play your cards right and there’ll be obstruction of justice charges in your future, no doubt. :(
/capacity to be surprised
radley, you are the man! great job!
Not that it doesn’t deserve to unravel…
Not that the other raiding cops shouldn’t be the ones being charged (under the “You were committing a felony, and somebody died. You get to catch the blame” theory).
But can we really say “unraveled” until the poor guy is out from under any capitol charge?
Yes, I know, I’m nit-picking. I’d hate to jinx Mr. Frederick, though.
ktc2,
Sounds like a good tactic to fight against the war on drugs. Get those departments to fold from some good ole’ investigative journalism and media exposure. They’re all pretty crooked; it’s just a matter of time before we could bring them down one by one. Or more appropriately, they would bring themselves down like the APD. That’s worthy of a Nobel Prize if you ask me.
Honeyko, here’s a list of Nobel Peace Laureates since 2000. Which ones do you identify as “pro-Marxist-dictatorship hacks”?
Al Gore, Muhammad Yunus, Mohamed ElBaradei, Wangari Muta Maathai, Shirin Ebadi, Jimmy Carter, Kofi Anan, Kim Dae-jung
