Sometimes a private delivery service will discover these things and that's when you will almost invariably find local cops doing the followup.
Notice that the article has a "local deliveryman" involved ~ I didn't find who he worked for, but it looks like a private scheme designed to defeat all the federal agencies.
Eventually we will find out more about this case and how the deal worked, but it's possible that when it works it is later found that the "recipient" is, in fact, "the intended recipient" or the next door neighbors. Recall a murder a couple of years back where a kid was ordering his drugs through the mail, and to avoid detection gave somebody else's address. Then he'd wait for the delivery and stop by and pick it up before the hapless homeowner knew what happened. He messed up one time and his response was to murder the neighbor.
I suspect the local cops have this in mind and probably figure it ain't over!
I'm guessing your interest is in the "privacy of MJ delivery" and not the possibility that somebody could get killed over this.
You guess incorrectly.
My interest is that the cops weren't issued a 'no knock' warrant, and then proceeded to serve it in a 'no knock' manner.
Everyone is extremely lucky no one was killed. Although truth be told I don't think in this case one of those idiot cops catching a fatal bullet would have been a bad thing.
Their Sherrif lied, and they lied. They violently entered a private home in an unauthorized manner. The Mayor would have been perfectly within his rights to shoot them dead.

I suspect the cops are desperately trying to save their own asses right about now. They’ve seriously screwed (not to mention shot) the pooch and if they can’t find something to pin on the mayor or his family they’re gonna have to pay big time.
You can't possibly be that stupid. Can you?
