Prisoner Grew Weed In Jail Cell

WeedChristmasTree
A British prisoner was able to grow cannabis in his jail cell and even decorate a four-foot plant as a Christmas tree thanks to some clueless prison guards.

Twenty-eight-year-old Mohamed Jalloh, who was serving an 8-year sentence for supplying Class A drugs, succeeded in convincing jail staff that his cannabis crop was tomato plants. The Sun reports that Jalloh grew his plants for at least five months and that prison officers and bosses at Verne Prison admired his botanical skills.

Jalloh’s agricultural project came to an end when a jealous prisoner reported him to authorities.

According to one source:

You could see the plants from the grounds as his cell looks on to the education department and communal outside area. They were on show for the world to see.

    “Jalloh’s agricultural project came to an end when a jealous prisoner reported him to authorities.”

    Its likely he was sharing that weed with others, so this guy who reported him is probably going to get tortured.

    But man how do the guards not know what weed looks like, they are some definite halfwits.

      The Sun is not Sunday Sport and it is certainly not the Onion. While not exactly a classy rag, they are not that kind of publication. I think you, Chris, do not know what the Sun is. Think Fox News for Brits.

        The Sun is definitely not “Fox News for Brits” It’s basically a slightly toned down version of The National Enquirer. If you can’t tell that The Sun makes shit up, you are seriously in need of help.

        Toned down version of the National Enquirer. Funny that’s what I thought Fox News was (interestingly, they are both (The Sun and Fox News) owned by the same guy). You are making some fairly big claims there, care to back them up with some proof or better yet, some examples.

        This was widely supported by the mainstream press, and well covered by the aforementioned Fox News.

        The Sun got caught out a couple of times in the past, mostly with celebrity stuff. It’s simple really, if you make stuff up and include real people and places you get sued.
