” A California police officer was recently busted after driving 247 pounds of
marijuana all the way across the country. Yuba County Deputy Christopher M.
Heath was caught in York, Pennsylvania with a shipment of marijuana that was
worth over $2 million.
The York County Police Department has
been cautiously silent about the investigation, and they have refused to comment
on the details of the arrest, and how they became aware of the
shipment.
Investigators also had no idea that Heath was a cop until after the
bust.
Heath, along with two other men, Tyler N. Long, and Ryan J. Falsone traveled
across the country in two pickup trucks where the marijuana was stashed in
vacuum sealed bags.
“We spend a majority of our time focusing on heroin and cocaine (dealers),”
Sunday said. However, he defended the arrest by saying that the men were caught
with “a startling amount of marijuana.”
This case is especially interesting because Heath was an officer
on a narcotics task force, meaning that he was responsible for putting
nonviolent people in prison for using and selling drugs. Meanwhile, he himself
was selling drugs and taking part in the same actions that he was locking people
up for.
This hypocrite is currently on paid vacation from the department in
Yuba despite admitting to transporting the marijuana from California to
Pennsylvania. Heath is free on a 1$ million bond.
