Break all ties with friends......change your habits....and stop using your computer at home.....they are tapping you and watching your every move. They gave you a loose line for a reason. Don´t let them hang you with it or people you know. They only fnd us a few ways. One you learned. The others are following and listening to what and where you go. Change you habits NOW!!

Get a GREAT JEWISH laywer!! And never believe any thing those people tell you. They are not your friends and never will be.

Careful Jedi, they want more from you. Big Brother is watching you! A felony and you were not jailed because the gestapo knows your relative??? BS. Prepare yourself....... The real crime here is the tyranny of the State in snooping thru his private phone, invading the man's home, removing his property, and putting him in handcuffs. What is the State going to make illegal next? Books?

Actually if I remember right in this case he lost his phone and it was turned in. In the process of trying to figure out the owner they found pic and videos of a grow operation.

Anyway I had an old macro pic I took with an actual camera on my phone as my wallpaper. This thread convinced me to change it. Even though it was the only pic there, I wouldn't want even the hassle of them thinking that I smoke weed if my phone were lost. I never took any pics or vids with my phone. Not necessarily out of security, it's just that I had a better camera.

Don't buy that. My phone's ownership info is on the FIRST page or pops up when I turn it on/off. BIG BROTHER was snooping. Which reminds me.......I gotta delete some pics from my phone. I feel so disgusted being afraid of my own govt. Liberty......... soon!!!

Very sorry to hear about this, but you got intimidated into doing what the DEA wanted you to.

IF you had it to do over.

Ding dong

You- who is it?

Dea- It's the dea, open the door

You- Fuck off

What happens next?
If they have a warrant they go ahead and come in anyway.

BUT, if they don't have a warrant, then they have to go ahead and fuck off like you told them to.

Never ever cooperate like you did.
Think of your rights. "Anything you say, can, and will be used against you."
Don't help them make their case against you.

But it's after the fact now, so good luck with things.

hmmmm.

I've been telling everyone here on ICMAG in past posts...

DO NOT USE YOU CELL PHONE TO TAKE PICS!!!



It's your fault you broke security.

I really don't believe this, with you posting on ICMAG after a bust...

IMO something seems fishy.

I must assume they are watching to see what I do and who I talk to. Everyone is a potential lead. I have friends that I could put in danger.
Then why the Fuck are you posting...


hmmm...

I have a smart phone and it will never be used for taking pictures of any that I don't want any cops to see if it got lost or what ever. The lesson is don't take pictures of anything that can get you in trouble. Use a camera .like a phone. that you don't carry

I believe there is an option to disable this on iphone,
I always password my phone, and encrypt your hard drives [TrueCrypt free].

You can disable the GPS and other locating devices in the phone, but having weed pics in the memory is just asking for shit from LEO just cause you have pictures. Safest way, is to be smart enough not to have any incriminating photos in your phone period. Smart phone or any other phone with a camera + weed pics = shit fro LEO so who needs it. You know what you grew. So be satisfied with that and don't carry pictures to impress your peeps. It'll just get you in trouble.

The doorbell rings at my mom's house, where I'm temporarily staying as I save up for a big move

But you already had an apartment where you were growing so why weren't you staying there keeping an eye on the grow? To me this would be suspicious behavior. The apartment neighbors would only see you there for awhile when you did plant care. They wouldn't hear a TV at night or your car parked outside. Did you get any mail there? I hope so.

It's one thing to have an isolated house as a grow area and you aren't there much. People won't notice as much. But a house in a neighborhood or an apartment just seems like a ticking bust bomb to me.

Also what about safety. Anything can and will happen in a grow. Lights break, timers fail, wires short, power outage and turn ons can cause ballast and bulb failure, fans break and things can catch on fire. You didn't care about the neighbors at all just you having a grow and the good life.

I don't like seeing people get busted but thoughtless dummies like you need to be taken out of the game.

Left your cell phone at the Post Office counter! You are an idiot. A danger to yourself and innocent people.

Now you don't even have the common sense to tell your parents, who you live with and what is going on. Maybe your dad is doing something on the side. Maybe he would like to know that the cops are following him. And don't say you know everything about him. Your track record for smarts is not very good.

And since you had pictures on your iPhone I am sure you accessed this site with it and made some posts. So they know you posted all this. They have your password. They have all the pm's you were probably too stupid to delete too.

JJ or somebody needs to delete your account and ban you now so we know this trail has ended.

I wish you luck in getting out of this. I am glad though that you are out of the game and can't kill some innocent apartment dwellers. However, any friends who grow that you visit or clients you sell to will still have to sweat it out wondering how long and where they followed you the last week and continue to do so.

OP,

I think the last thing you want to do right now is start giving details of an ongoing investigation on this forum. You've already given enough for an investigator to potentially identify you. You've been promised a good deal, but you can't trust that at this point, and you don't want to incriminate yourself more or ruin any good deals they may offer by talking this thing up online.

Bro, to say it to you bluntly, you really need to shut up, stop posting your story here, get a lawyer, play things cool and calm, and wait to see if this "deal" they're offering is real or not. I would have thought the lesson learned from storing sensitive info on a smart phone would have taught you to keep your information more secure. But somehow the dots aren't connecting for you yet.

Good luck, peace
