Add Google Earth to the arsenal of crime detection weapons!
On January 29th, Swiss police revealed they stumbled upon a marijuana-growing plantation using Google Earth, the search engine company's satellite mapping software. Hidden inside a field of corn, the marijuana production area measured approximately 2 acres.
As part of a larger investigation begun last year, police were using the software to locate two farmers suspected of participation in the distribution ring, and the growing field was discovered. Sixteen people have been arrested in connection with the police investigation, and more than a ton of marijuana valued at three-quarters of a million dollars was seized.
