Sheriff’s weed-for-lift-tickets Craigslist ad brings arrests in Mammoth Lakes

Posted by frontrangeriffraff on February 26, 2009

The recession is causing people to ramp up their bartering activity. Or something like that. From the Orange County Register story:

Mono County Sheriff’s Department officers advertised on Craigslist.com an offer to sell lift vouchers for Mammoth Lakes’ skiing area in exchange for narcotics. The buyers came to Mammoth Lakes, gave the agents the drugs, and were arrested Friday, Mono sheriff’s officials said.

    What a great use of resources. 25 tax payer man hours to bust some kids trying to get a couple hundred dollars worth of lift tickets. Do your job and stop wasting time and resources.
