One Too Many Tokes, Dude, Part Two
Okay, what in the heck are they putting into the marijuana in Iowa? A short while ago we brought you this gem about the guy cheerfully wandering past the sheriff's office carrying his freshly harvested pot crop. That was in Polk County, Iowa. Today we have this story from Cedar Rapids, Iowa. A man was observed running from the area by police. They got suspicious and stopped him. He just happened to be carrying two pounds of marijuana. They asked him where he had gotten it. And he answered, quite truthfully.
He'd just burglarized a business and stolen it from there.
Bradley Robison, 18, of Cedar Rapids, was charged with possession of marijuana with intent to deliver and failure to affix a drug tax stamp.
When police found him with the marijuana he said he had stolen it from a nearby business that he had just broken into, court records show.
Linn County Attorney Harold Denton said it doesn't matter how Robison got the marijuana — only that he had it.
"If you steal it, you steal it and you possess it," Denton said. "It's a double whammy."
Robison was caught by officers after they saw him running from the area early Tuesday morning, police said.
A burglary charge was being considered but had not been immediately filed.
The investigation also led to a possession with intent to deliver charge being filed against Ruban Rivas, 36, no address given, for allegedly having the marijuana at the business that Robison broke into, court records show.
So now we have two data points that prove pot makes you stupid, but that Iowa pot makes you really, really stupid. Really, dude. It must be global warming.
