Wow. Impressive, whether that's the correct word for the situation or not, for a 16 year old student.
Apparently this kid was capable of running a multimillion dollar ring. He had adults grow out of warehouses for him and was very high-grade marijuana. When the cops arrived, they recovered over 600 plants worth an estimated street value of $3 million. This operation brought in $20,000 a month.
I thought my high school had it's fair share of problems. Good lord.
