Marijuana Farmer Busted Via Google Maps
01/29/09 - Ridiculous
“Swiss police said they stumbled across a large marijuana plantation while using Google Earth, the search engine company’s satellite mapping software. Police said the find was part of a bigger investigation that led to the arrest of 16 people and seizure of 1.2 tons of marijuana as well as cash and valuables worth $780,000… The plantation, measuring almost two acres, was hidden inside a field of corn. But officers using Google Earth to locate the address of two farmers suspected of involvement in the drug operation quickly spotted the illegal crop.” w/ photos
