A Tracker finds a bag of marijuana and can't turn it in to police [View all]

I thought this was funny. A woman was robbed by some petty thieves and since she is a certified tracker, she tracked their activities from her house. She found some marijuana but the police didn't want it. A person who is even more conservative than the police.



At the top of the hill, they could either go left toward the sewage treatment plant on the road, or right toward the bridge over the creek. They chose to go left. I followed their trail all the way around the outer perimeter fence around the sewage plant. They went almost to the road, then suddenly stopped and turned around and went back into the brush and tall grass. When they ducked under one thick bush, a cigarette pack had fallen out of someone’s pocket. I found it to contain several packets of matches, a couple crumpled dollar bills, and a big baggie of marijuana. I took it along as evidence to give to the sheriff later, being careful not to put my fingerprints on it.


The next day, I called various businesses in town to ask them to keep an eye out for our missing stuff, should anyone try to sell it. I also called the deputy and told him about the bag of marijuana I had found. I asked what he wanted me to do with it. He was being a smart-aleck when he told me to “smoke it.” The stuff is so common in this area that such a small amount apparently is not that important. I photographed the "evidence" and then threw it in a dumpster.
