Г) Busted by Invitation

Dope smokers the world over seem to be welcoming the tendency of

many police forces to turn a blind eye to what the law is beginning to see as a

fairly harmless habit. However, even the police can only lighten up so much.

Two officers arrived at a house in Massachusetts after someone accidentally

dialed 911 and then hung up. After being invited into the house, the officers

were surprised to find marijuana being smoked. They were going to let it pass

until the lady of the house proudly showed them a huge store of the stuff in the

kitchen. The woman and her husband were a little taken aback to find

themselves in court on charges of cultivating and supplying marijuana.

(From The Best Book of Bizarre But True Stories by Mike Flynn)
