NM Woman Will Be Compensated for Her Destroyed Plants

Toni Armijo will be getting some compensation from the Albuquerque NM police department for her destroyed cannabis plants. She did, however, have to wait quite a while for this payday. In August of 2010, a neighbor of Ms. Armijo called the police concerned that she was suicidal. When the police came to do a wellness check on her, she was gone, but they entered and found her marijuana plants just sprouting beneath a grow light. The officers pulled all the plants from their pots and held them as evidence.

By the time Armijo came back to her house, and was able ton convince the police that she was a licensed grower for her own medical marijuana, her entire crop, now stuffed into a paper bag, was ruined. Officials in Albuquerque will have to pay Ms. Armijo $3,100 dollars for her loss.
