4 charged after drug raid :: The SouthtownStar :: News (http://www.southtownstar.com/news/1474446,031209potbust.article)
Four men were charged today with growing marijuana after police raided a garage in a Lansing industrial park and found more than 500 plants growing inside.
Cook County sheriff’s police narcotics officers and Lansing police searched the garage in an industrial park at 2800 Bernice Road about 8:30 p.m. Wednesday, the sheriff's police said.
Inside the 1,850-square-foot unit, officers found the growing operation and three men, who were taken into custody without incident. A fourth man was arrested outside the garage, the sheriff's police said.
Charged today with one count of manufacturing marijuana were Christopher Lacy, 31, and his brother Edward Lacy, both of Crete; Jerrill Halmon, 33, of Riverdale; and Brian Ridgner, 35, of Harvey, according to sheriff's office spokeswoman Penny Mateck.
The four men are expected to be in court Friday morning.
In all, the operation had 525 marijuana plants, most in the fourth week of a 12-week growth cycle, worth an estimated $1 million, the sheriff's police said. The operation featured two types of plants, including one described as a "designer-type" marijuana genetically altered for higher potency.
Police believe the men would strip off small-branch samples from a “mother plant” of the designer-type marijuana, replant them and grow new full plants, effectively cloning the original. The new plants would retain the same high potency levels, making the marijuana more sought after on the street and more lucrative to sell, the sheriff's police said. The garage had a separate drying room.
“This elaborate operation of marijuana plants was growing in near-perfect conditions,” Sheriff Tom Dart said in a news release. “Because these offenders could harvest the crop at least three times a year, they had the potential to easily earn millions.”
