Title: Crimedog McRuff gets 16 years in prison !!!
Post by: Vince G, CSN MFT on February 07, 2014, 06:09:48 PM
 A Houston man who once portrayed McGruff the Crime Dog has shown his commitment to crime fighting apparently wasn't very deep.

John R. Morales was sentenced this week to 16 years and three months in federal prison on drug and weapons charges after police found more than 1,000 marijuana plants and 27 weapons, including grenade launchers, at two indoor farms.

Morales wore the McGruff costume for the Harris County Sheriff's Association in the late 1990s.

A real crime dog -- the drug-sniffing variety -- detected pot plans in Morales' trunk after he was stopped for speeding in Galveston in 2011. Authorities say officers found a clipboard with maps to the indoor farms.

Defense attorney Ken Fesler II says Morales entered the drug trade to help sick relatives.

Don't see any crime committed here. Just a guy growing some plants on his own private property and owning some weapons.

Maybe the only crime here is an overzealous government raiding and seizing a citizens private property.

Probably a 37mm. They're sold as flare launchers and to reenactors.

My ass. They probably found a couple of pieces of 2" PVC. FFS, the media can't tell the difference between a Glock and a trebuchet.

Just like when weigh up all the plants. They weigh dirt, stems, leaves and calculate that at some outrageous price like $600 an oz

16 years is draconian.  He'd get less for selling heroin to children on school grounds.  Bunch of fucking Nazis.

Shit, if your wealthy, you don't even get jail time for actually killing people

CNN) - A judge on Wednesday ordered that Ethan Couch -- who drove drunk and caused a crash, killing four people and injuring two -- go to a lock-down residential treatment facility.

In Texas someone will probably blow the guy away.  If you were family of the dead you'd have to be considering it.
