In north Wales, police hear a gossip about this legal mushroom farm. Out of curiosity, they planned to go to see it for themselves. They arrived at the so-called mushroom farm and they were aware that this was a legal operation housing a mushroom farm in the underground tunnels. What they see was beyond their expectations. Police found a huge steel door looking like a secret entrance and gates which lead to something very unexpected.
This is the image of the entrance of the abandoned railroad tunnel which leads to the mushroom farm, upon opening the huge steel doors and gates, they saw the recent biggest pot farm in North Wales history.
They found 5 secret rooms that each have a street value over $373,000 dollars. In overall of all five rooms equals to be over #3,315,000 dollars! Four men were taken into custody during the drug bust, all of them was plead guilty.
Gerald Davies, 63, the oldest one who've been captured. A retired builder and great-grandfather
John Vincent, 59, a building designer who admitted to being distributor of the marijuana and assisted in growing the illegal plant.
Phillip Bigley, 22, a gardener in the tunnels and also been arrested.
Also, his friend Christopher McIntyre, 30, was also a gardener in the tunnels have been arrested. The two distributors that have been pictured above have been sentenced to 3 years and 4 months in prison and the two gardeners receive 12 months to pay for their crimes.
This abandoned railway tunnels served as perfect hideout with ideal conditions to grow the class B drug in North Wales.
Authorities also found another secret entrance that leads to another growing room.
Another room that filled with clipped marijuana hanging to dry. Once dried, it is sold to dealers.
The persons who have caught in the act and arrested are most likely not the one who was behind this operation. The one who is funding this drug operation has never been found. The people who have been arrested were simply employees of a legitimate mushroom business as well as the illegal plant operation.
They had found 1,207 plants in various stages of growth in the 5 grow rooms, aside from that they also found 4 large irrigation rooms and a substation that powered the illegal operation. Roads were rebuilt and huge steel doors were installed. In this case, we all know that this was no a small venture. A huge person was behind all of this. The police also said that this drug-bust operation was the best designed and constructed they have encountered in their lives.
