Hey, we got any NYC weed heads in the house? I hope you don't buy from these guys

"Cartoon Network" Canceled
Gotham marijuana ring delivered hydroponic holiday cheer

DECEMBER 8--In a blow to New Yorkers who enjoyed having their premium marijuana delivered to their doorsteps, Drug Enforcement Administration agents have busted up a six-year-old pot ring calling itself the Cartoon Network that was busy preparing its festive holiday shipments before federal agents kicked in the door. The Cartoon Network, which allegedly had thousands of metropolitan area customers buying its Canadian-grown hydroponic chronic, packaged product in clear plastic containers, as seen in the DEA evidence photos below. When agents raided one stash house, they discovered 30 pounds of pot "in open and plain view, and marijuana already packaged for retail holiday delivery to Cartoon Network customers," according to a court filing by prosecutors Burton Ryan and Allen Bode. "Happy Holidays from your friends at Cartoon!," read the holiday label, which also included the cheery reminder, "Remember to make sure your bag is sealed!" The label also appears to carry a picture of the Hamburglar. Twelve Cartoon Network figures, including alleged boss John Nebel, have been charged with drug trafficking and money laundering, and prosecutors are seeking the forfeiture of $22 million in assorted assets. Click here to read the 12-page Cartoon Network criminal complaint, which describes the ring's operations and--buyers beware--how investigators seized "a large quantity of drug customer lists."[Edit: That means that if you have purchased weed from these guys, the cops have your name, address, and phone number, so watch out!] (2 pages)

Speaking of unique drug packaging, Gotham dealers have previously sold bin Laden heroin, Harry Potter Ecstasy, and Teletubbies cocaine.

In the police report it says the customer would call a pager, which would go into the call center. Then someone from the call center would call you back and you would place your order. They only sold to known customers, so not anyone could just call, and they would just hang up if you said anything incriminating over the phone. It sounds like these guys watched Half-Baked way, WAY too much lol
