The "checking out a suicide attempt" makes me want to cry bullshit for some reason. Something tells me they didn't like this guy and got some inside info when to come over. But please everyone else, BE SAFE AND LOCK THOSE LOCKS!!!!!

You should really site your references so others don't have to search.

Marijuana growhouse suspect invites deputy inside - And ends up in jail.


regards,

you should really put the article in the post so others dont have to leave and go somewhere else for it but i understand you being canadian and all.

Some advice: If you're running a marijuana grow house, it's never a good idea to invite the cops in — especially if you're cutting up your plants in the wide open.

That's what happened when a deputy called to a possible suicide visited a Key Largo man. There was no suicide — but there were, the agency says, 124 pot plants in the house.

Joseph Ebeling, 49, of Leob Avenue is charged with cultivation of marijuana, possession of a felony amount of marijuana and possession of drug paraphernalia. He remained in the Monroe County Detention Center Tuesday in lieu of $11,000 bond.

Monroe sheriff's spokeswoman Becky Herrin says Sgt. Jason Madnick was dispatched to Ebeling's house at 9:30 p.m. last Friday to check out a report of a possibly suicidal person. When he knocked on the door, Ebeling reportedly shouted, "Come in!"

When Madnick opened the door, he reportedly saw Ebeling cutting up a pot plant, with several more plants by his side. Ebeling looked up, saw it was the police and reportedly uttered a curse.

When Madnick asked for his identification, Ebeling reportedly said, "I can't go to jail for this. I was arrested by you guys 10 years ago for the same thing."

Ebeling's Monroe County arrest record shows he was arrested in 2004 for possession of a controlled substance, and court records show he was found guilty.

Ebeling sought leniency, asking Madnick to just forget he saw anything. The sergeant said no.

Ebeling's Keys rap sheet includes charges of aggravated battery, fraud for writing checks with insufficient funds, driving with a suspended license and petty theft. He also has a long list of traffic violations.

What a dope. yike, Come In! I mean really?
