Wow, pot found in Clermont county? Where's the news here? I always thought pot was our cash crop after corn and soybeans.
Police have seized more than 1,500 marijuana plants growing in five townships, Clermont County Sheriff A.J. “Tim” Rodenberg said Monday.
The plants, which were about two-thirds of the way through the growing season, ranged in height from 4 to 8 feet.
They would have been worth about $1,000 apiece if fully grown – for a total of more than $1.5 million, Rodenberg said.

Dude, is that your house in the background?
So was the cost of the overall operation to get the plants, say from the vehicle, gas, aviation, manpower costs to name a few, worth the taxpayer expense?
Are we sure it was worth $1.5 million or is this something law enforcement inflated to gain publicity?
As you know, I am anti drug laws. If someone wants to grow all this and smoke it, why should I care?
To answer your question, Yes, law enforcement inflated value to gain publicity.
That's what governments do.
