Fridley / Tunnel found in raid a possible meth lab site

An elaborate - but unfinished - tunnel was discovered last week under a garage in Fridley when investigators searched the home for meth.

[Tired of it all]

They were displaced Hezbollah Freedom fighters. Just leave them alone.

[Tina Turkey]

Seriously, in the cities. Where were they going to tunnel too.

What a couple of morons.

[The Great Ecstasy]

These two have been either digging for gold in the wrong place or been watching Charles Bronson dig out of Stalag. Or maybe they were just making a shelter in case of war, or maybe they were about to make meth. so they had to make sure they could get away.
too funny

It rubs the lotion on it's skin or else it gets the hose again.

[MadeInAmerica]

I think that the drug trafficking is going to get worse before better.

[Frank N Stein]

What?In Friendly Fridley?
Say it ain't so.

[TommyD]

This is a hybrid. This is a cross, ah, of Bluegrass, Kentucky Bluegrass, Featherbed Bent, and Northern California Sensemilia. The amazing stuff about this is, that you can play 36 holes on it in the afternoon, take it home and just get stoned to the bejeezus-belt that night on this stuff.

[Just Saying]

So now we can't dig tunnels on our own property? What next? Registration of shovels? It's a slippery slope to tyranny.

I'm just saying.

[Joe Taxpayer]

This will be another home the tax payers will buy...YEA!

They're both in the anoka county jail with 2 identical charges, but she has a extra charge added to her resume. His bail is set at $150,000 while hers is at $20,000.

[Dane]

Put these POS people away for a long time.

[So Why]

So why the discrepancy in the bail? Is it likely either of them will be bonded out? If the only difference is the sex of the offender, then that should be challenged by the male's attorney.
I will save my crusading outrage for something more important than the lack of equity in criminal court.

If these people would have only been this productive and imaginative in a legal, real legitimate job they wouldn't be looking at prison. It amazes me how far a person will go to be a criminal instead of just getting a 40 hour per week job.

[jct]

Hope they tell the prison that they are experineced tunnel diggers...

[Christopher Mankey]

We outlaw those drugs and the business just goes underground.

[It shouldnt]

It shouldn't amaze you when they can deal drugs and can make 10 times the amount of $$$ of a 40 hour a week job in only 10 hours. Much easier than actually working 40 hours a week and you get to be your own boss (with a huge risk of course).

[Rockin John]

Well when they are not making meth, taking apart their car, rewiring the house, checking the dvd player for listening devices, running in place for hours at a time, not sleeping for a week, gritting their teeth, the digging of tunnels helps burn off the excess energy!!!

No, it still does amaze me. The life of a petty drug dealer I can't imagine is that great, especially if you have to walk around with eyes in the back of your head or constantly watching over your shoulder. The money is there, but does it out weigh the risk? I guess I will never know. Seems sad though if you have that kind of money but can't be able to enjoy it without people wanting to kill you.

I think I will keep my day job.....

I was just saying-bonehead

[Tom]

crack-heads will do anything when they are high, I read a story about a guy that tore all the sheetrock off the wall in his house when he was on a buzz. It took these people only 23 minutes, after smoking crack, to dig this tunnel...had they been state workers, one would have dug and three would have watched. The tunnel would have taken 3 months.
