Smelly cash prompts marijuana arrest in Greensburg, Ind.

FOX41.com

A man who went to the sheriff's department in Greensburg to pay bond for his brother-in-law wound up in jail when police noticed the money he handed them reeked of marijuana.

Timothy Richards,45, of Columbus, Indiana, went to the Decatur County Sheriff's Department in Greensburg Tuesday to pay the $400 get his brother-in-law out of jail.

A dispatcher noticed that the cash smelled funny and asked a state trooper to investigate. Richards allowed the trooper to search his car and was arrested when the trooper found some marijuana and a pipe in his car.

Police didn't confiscate the cash, so Richard's brother-in-law got out of jail. He returned a few hours later with $250 to bond Richards out.

Yeah, really! Plus, I don't understand why the cash smelled so weedy - I mean, I smoke pot pretty consistently, and my money never smells like pot. At least I hope it doesn't...
