Michigan State Police (MSP) is seeing more people grow and sell black-market marijuana in West Michigan. The motive is to make money and do it as cheaply as possible without proper safety procedures.
MSP’s Marijuana Tobacco Investigation Section got 400 tips statewide last year that led to illegal cannabis investigations. This is a number that has been increasing every year over the last four years.
Hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of marijuana product was seized recently from illegal marijuana grow operation spanning several counties in West Michigan.
If you add in the land and equipment used, including hundreds of growing lamps also seized, the total value of the operation is close to a million dollars.
