Authorities say marijuana that was meant to be used as evidence in a Long Island drug case and was shopped via FedEx disappeared during shipment. Someone apparently opened the box, removed the contents, then resealed the package.
CBS New York spoke to a member of a committee that is investigating problems at the Nassau County Crime Lab:
“It just calls into question the propriety of dealing with a common carrier, like FedEx, for purposes of delivering evidence. Perhaps a better course of action would be to use an employee of the police department or the county.”
FedEx is investigating the possible theft, as is the district attorney's office.
