    Thousands of pounds of pot worth $3.6 million found floating off Calif. coast

    Harbor Patrol officers found nearly 8,000 pounds worth of marijuana floating off the coast of Orange County, Calif., on Sunday, according to reports.

    The marijuana found south of Los Angeles was packed in around 160 bales and had an estimated street value of $3.6 million, border patrol agents told CBS Los Angeles.
    "Shortly before noon on Sunday, May 20, maritime law enforcement authorities received a tip about suspicious bales floating in the water off the coast of Orange County, near Dana Point," border patrol agent supervisor Michael Jimenez said in a statement.

    The haul reportedly totaled 7,263 pounds.
    Coast guard petty officer Seth Johnson told the Orange County Register that the bales were first reported by a boater who saw them floating around 15 miles offshore.Marijuana grows openly in California towns, not just for medicinal purposes
    Three Harbor Patrol ships and a Coast Guard cutter were sent to recover the marijuana from the water.
    The incident was out of the ordinary, Jimenez told the Register.

    "At other events, they've dumped the bales to get rid of weight if they're being chased," he said. "Generally in these cases we're aware they're being dumped. What's more unusual is that the bales were floating with no boat in sight."
    No suspects or vessel have been identified in connection to an ongoing investigation, the Register reported.

    Law enforcement authorities say drug traffickers are hiding behind California's medical marijuana laws, established in 1996 to help people manage nausea and pain associated with serious illnesses, and distributing the drug illegally.

    what would you guys do if you found millions of dollars worth of drugs and there were no onlookers?

    how hard would it be to flip without getting killed or arrested

    It's Mexican herb, around spring time. Their Christmas buds are no longer floating around. I would guess it was rather bunk.

    Still, you could sell that crap for $800-$1000 a LB on in the mid-west.

    3.8 street value is probably estimated at $500 a lb. Mexicans probably paid somewhere around $50 for that amount. $380,000 K is still a lot, but a drop in the bucket for most these guys.
