June 24, 2008; NEWPORT, Tenn. (AP) -- According to the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation, authorities have found a major marijuana growing operation in Cocke County.

A Tennessee Highway Patrol helicopter pilot spotted the marijuana plants growing in the Cherokee National Forest about five miles from where Interstate 40 crosses the Tennessee-North Carolina state line.

At the scene, agents found 357,500 plants -- more than the Governor's Task Force on marijuana Eradication confiscated in all of 2007.

According to the TBI, they would have had a street value of approximately $700 million at maturity.

The operation included a campsite though no one was found guarding the patch.

The Task Force on marijuana Eradication includes the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation, Alcohol Beverage Commission, Tennessee Highway Patrol and National Guard Counter Drug Task Force.
Wow...is all I have to say..Just wow.

That is literally within 2 hours from my house....maybe even less.

Haha never knew about it at all. It said it was in the middle of a forest and the officers searching for it had to walk 1 mile into the woods before they came to the clearing.

My question is how the fuck didn't the heli's find this grow any sooner? It's MASSIVE. Especially for around here.
