Man busted with $2 million in pot jailed in NJ

 According to (http://abclocal.go.com/wpvi/story?section=news/local&id=8620959) there was a Florida man who had 600 pounds of marijuana (weed/pot) in a tractor-trailer that he was driving in New Jersey . he was sentence 15 years in prison .Gordon Peters has to serve 10 years of his term before becoming eligible for parole. The 44-year-old Miramar resident was convicted in February of possessing marijuana with the intent to distribute in a quantity of more than 25 pounds. In January 2010 peter was arrested after Bayonne police stopped to investigate an open truck. After detecting a strong odor of marijuana, officers found Peters inside the truck with one of the 32 marijuana bundles found inside the vehicle.the marijuana he had was worth 2 million.Peters stated he didn't know the drugs were in the truck , trying to maintain his innocence when he was sentenced Friday .

There are millions of people now that sell drugs. Some people don't get caught . i never knew you could get so many years just by having marijuana . I have witness and knew a couple people that  have been caught selling or having drugs on them . Having 2 million dollars of marijuana is outrageous . I still don't know the value or how serious marijuana is . Sadly i do think that 15 years is good for him. what was he gonna do with the marijuana anyways ? everyone knows he was going to make money off of it . he lived in Florida , what was he doing in new jersey? i honestly think having a truck is  suspicious. well now Gordon is in jail , although i do wounder what did the police did with the marijuana .
