DEA raids woman`s Shorewood home after she shops at garden center
Posted: Apr 12, 2014 CHICAGO (FOX 32 News) -
A woman in the southwest suburbs says she woke up to find armed DEA agents pointing guns at her -- all because she shopped at a hydroponic garden center.
Angela Kirkling was driven out of her bed in Shorewood at gunpoint. The DEA had started investigating her because she had made a purchase at a hydroponics shop.
Agents say they thought she was growing pot indoors. Police had also been digging through her garbage and tracking her electrical bill.

Well, there you go. Sometimes I wake up early and go ahead and turn it on especially if it’s a cloudy day with not much sunshine peeking through.
Plants need the light for their energy, but they need to dark to actually grow. Ever notice how plants at sundown seem to magically gotten bigger by sunup. It’s quite interesting to have a garden and observe this stuff.
WARRANT! WARRANR!! WARRANT!!! Follows the law! It is to the point where we cannot ignore these tactics any longer.
Thanks I did not know that....I like poetry... not the wacky liberal stuff.
But some (probably your referenced ‘poets’) call Service’s work Doggerel.
I really enjoy it.
“Ah. They THOUGHT she was growing pot.”
You have to have a warrant to use thermal imaging on a domicile, which means at that point you can probably apply for a warrant to physically search the house.
Heil Hitler!
If this is discretion, then I have a problem with discretion!
"Discretion" is not in the Constitution.
Hey give 'em credit for that at least.
Is she one of them White Hispanics?
That would be Mooseiceses.
You answered Your own question.
The locals had already stolen her pot and had the munchies!
But the important thing is that they all got home safe.
My tinfoil clad, black helicopter ridden viewpoint on this is that
they want to target preppers.
No, they weren’t. They were lucky.
All that they thought they knew was wrong.
Oh I heard that they would and if we have martial law, or food shortage they might raid homes, but I’m not surprised.
