sorry if this has already been posted

This is how they grow it in Tennessee . This grow was underneath a
house in a cave. The entrance was through a secret hydraulic door in the
garage that led to a concrete ramp that went about 50 yards into the
ground. Inside the cave was living quarters and a secret escape hatch that
led you through a tunnel that exited via another hydraulic door that
opened up a rock on the outside. It was very elaborate. The set up
allowed them to harvest every 60 days which resulted in multi-million
dollar sales. One of the guys busted was living in a house on the water
in FL and had a nice yacht.
One of the agents here in Nashville worked on this for 5 years
before the warrant was finally served in December."

posted, but still awesome nonetheless. i wonder how the agent found out and got the warrants? like what gave them away? i'd imagine their electric bill was super high.

if you're running lamps like that 24 hours a day, I'm willing to bet they had a lot of wind/solar power to generate enough to use and then some

why would it raise suspicions? i see so many houses with solar panels, i mean to power that youd need a lot which yeah would look kinda weird, but if you look at how much they had, it wouldnt be hard to pay it off

they'd have had to spend a shit load on some powerful panels because you need a lot of light, especially with their harvest. but then again, they did have a trap door under a rock. these guys were legit

something very similar happened here. a guy built an underground room with escape hatch etc....making millions but the only way he got caught was he had rerouted energy from powerlines nearby so he wouldnt have to pay for it...seems like a bad idea but he had gotten away with it for several years. Finally got caught a couple years ago tho

probably pirated power or diesel generator. no way that solar would provide enough energy for that.

not really no, and even if it did...they could just say they use a lot of appliances, police can't use "they were using too much power" as reason of suspuscion

They were probably caught cuz the cops were somehow able to trace the drug source back to someone who lived and/or visited that address alot.

Dude it was obviously intended to blend in with the surrounding brick, just look at it. If you saw that you would just think, "Man, that's a cool painting on the wall."
