This was the Narc Unit in July, 1988 following
the seizure of 500 lbs. of marijuana from a motorhome
in Boulder. The case eventually led to the indictment of
56 defendants and the forfeiture in millions of dollars
in assets. The seized assets were used to fund a variety
of PD programs including the Tuition Reimbursement Program
and
other training related items. The photo was taken in the
elevator of the CJC. The bales of marijuana
were taken upstairs from the parking garage in small loads.
