Appearing in Magistrates Court this morning [Sept 10], a 48 year old Pembroke resident denied importing and possessing some $130,000 worth of cannabis.

Vain Waldron pleaded not guilty to importing and possessing cannabis in St George’s on 25th May 2014.

The Prosecutor told Magistrate Juan Wolffe that the amount of cannabis was alleged to be 2,646 grams [just under 6lbs] which they said had an alleged street value of approximately $132,350.

The Magistrate set trial for December 2014 and granted Mr Waldron bail at $10,000 with one surety required.

      So-called “soft” drugs destroy the brain – and lead to harder drug addictions!! Google it…. But I’m sure you know that already – but refuse to admit it!!

        If you’d actually google it, you’d know that that myth has recently been broken…but I guess all the alcohol and lack of education you suffer from, inhibits your ability to think for yourself

    So now weed is selling in BDA for $22k a pound?

    How do the authorities calculate the prices?

    • Terry says:

      Take a pound of weed and mix it with whatever and sell it.
      Simple math. Plus, have a little that is not mixed and walllllahhhh.

    • Benjammin says:

      $132,350 / 2,646g = $50 per gram

    yeah …why not grow poppies???…poppies in its self are harmless naturally…until MAN puts his devious hands to it…then we could actually have a living memory on Remembrance Day instead of fake paper poppies… you notice how you cant grow alcohol but you can make it from a mixture n chemical reactions of wholly organic matter…imagine that…lol…you’re all cool with altering natural organics…but don’t let something grow naturally…HELL NO!
    i challenge anyone to bring forth any product or notion which is deemed hazardous to your health from an ingrown toenail to a thermonuclear bomb…nothing is dangerous until a MAN puts his hand to it.

  6. Man with an explanation says:

    To answer the ? Of how the Poluce RE-Value Weed…

    If u get caught with “Loud”/”Exotic” you are charged with 0.3 grams having a street value of $50. So if u get caught with 5.8 grams of weed it a $1000.00 street value, even though the person probabaly paid anywhere from $300-$400 for 7 grams.

    First off, I dont know of anyone that purchases 0.3 grams for $50…. thats beyond a crack head for herb.

    I asked a police officer how they came up with the size of $50 worth of “Loud” and “Regz” and was informed that when they obtain amounts of weed they test it for THC content and wieght. They have caught people and asked them and been told that what was taken was worth $50.

    Crazy…….

  7. LMAO says:

    6lbs is worth max $12K. Only in Bermuda…

  8. more than enough says:

    Set Vain free.
    Save time and money,
    Legalize it and eliminate this ridiculously unnecessary pratice.
    Thousands of pounds of the most deadly poison are imported and taxed every year…tobacco.
    Get you priorities straight.

  9. Keepin' it Real!...4Real! says:

    all this talk… about weights an prices…would be eliminated…if we legalize this.

  10. more than enough says:

    Should be $1 a gram for high grade raw nuggets $10 a gram for medical grade oil maybe higher if marketed from a dispensary or possibly a ‘coffee shop’ type situation.
