How does that much “merchandise” get moved without attracting attention? Granted it is out in the desert but still - there is a thriving community in Hesperia..PLUS many, many, many illegals!

Never mind $70/oz is way below the national average of $336/oz

The 46 tons was worth more like 4-500m

“That is only $70 per ounce”

Naa.That’s just over 1000 a pound which is not a bad price for wholesale weed. i would have expected some exaggeration on the part of law enforcement. Doesn’t seem to be the case here

There is too much on the market. The truth is they can’t move the product so it just sits. In the pic it’s covered with dust.
