Judge sees red

Oh those crazy Canadians!

Dana Lucin, 33, of Surrey, gave a very colourful explanation for a marajuana grow-op found in a building in Ashcroft.

Mr Lucin claimed he was hired to renovate the property in the southern Interior community by a Mr. Black, a Mr. Pink and a Mr. Blue and had no idea there were 2,500 pot plants growing in the building.

Mr Lucin also said the facility was registered to a Mr Peach.

The judge called Lucin's evidence totally unbelievable and convicted him of producing and trafficking marijuana.

Sounds like Mr Lucin was stoned when he was giving his testimony!
