WILTON, N.Y. (AP) - Former mountain biking world champion Melissa "Missy" Giove was in custody Thursday on federal drug charges after authorities said they seized more than 200 pounds of marijuana from a truck she was driving in upstate New York. U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration officials said Wednesday that the 37-year-old Giove, of Chesapeake, Va., and 30-year-old Eric Canori of Wilton were charged Tuesday with conspiring to possess and distribute more than 100 kilograms of marijuana. Authorities said they seized nearly 400 pounds of pot from the truck and from Canori's home outside Saratoga Springs, 25 miles north of Albany.

Might explain why she spent so much time riding mountain bikes. Check a plot here...ride over and check a plot there.... | ||

Michael Phelps, Missy Giove, et.al., clearly marijuana is a dangerous drug that destroys all motivation to sit on the couch, and encourages people to become world class athletes. It's a good thing that dangerous criminals like her are removed from the streets, where they might engage in sporting events. | ||

I sure wish they would do something about the sex offender/felony burglar that is now part timing at my next door neighbors house. Says to me in front of his SIX YEAR OLD(WTF is he doing with a kid??????) he has a handgun in his trailer. Out here in Cali that should be strike 3!!!!!. Cops here don't give a flying F$*@ that he's here with a kid and a gun. But they just raided a friend of mine's pot garden even as we are 20 billion in the hole here. Seems to me cops just want to arrest people they know they are going to seize property and $$$$$ for their departments and don't seem to want to get their hands dirty with real scum! | ||

". . .the illegality of cannabis is outrageous, an impediment to full utilization of a drug which helps produce the serenity and insight, sensitivity and fellowship so desperately needed in this increasingly mad and dangerous world." Undoubtedly the words of a social degenerate. The sort of low life who provides nothing redeeming to society. That, or one of our most renown astrophysicists (Carl Sagan). http://marijuana-uses.com/essays/002.html /Okay, I guess I've made my point of view known. | ||

I'm on the NORML Board of Directors, so I guess my point of view is fairly obvious. BTW, Carl's widow Ann Druyan is a fellow Board member. And it's true what they say about cannabis - it leads to harder things ... like graduate school! Bill, tgo (the ganja one?) |
