$500,000 in marijuana is found in limo

Wayne County sheriff’s deputies seized marijuana with an estimated value of more than $500,000 from the trunk of a limousine in Southgate, spokeswoman Paula Bridges said Wednesday.

Deputies acting on a tip watched Tuesday, Bridges said, as two men took a car hauler with four vehicles, including the limo. Deputies found about 150 pounds of marijuana in 11 bundles, she said.

Aaron Cook, 20, was charged with possession with intent to deliver marijuana, Bridges said. He was freed and faces a preliminary examination Dec. 30. Another man awaits arraignment.

It’s the most common illicit drug in the United States with nearly 15 million people using it at least once a month. All this week, “Anderson Cooper 360″ is taking a close look at the deeply divisive issue of drug legalization in a series of reports. It’s a special “360″ investigation called “America’s High: The case for and against pot.” The topic of medical marijuana inspires particular controversy. As of right now, 13 states have laws that permit marijuana, also know as cannabis, to be taken for medical conditions. There is no prescription for cannabis; instead doctors issue a recommendation in these states. But is it safe? Is it effective? Does it actually work?
