Illegal Immigrant Pleads Guilty to 3,700-Plant Pot Grow in National Park

A man accused of using the cover of the Plumas National Forest to grow more than 3,700 marijuana plants changed his plea to guilty at a hearing Wednesday, according to court documents.

Alejandro Soto-Silva, 22, a man residing in the country illegally, was charged with conspiracy to manufacture marijuana, manufacture of marijuana, and depredation of public lands and resources, according to court documents.

Soto-Silva was arrested in July 2014 after U.S. Forest Service agents found a massive marijuana grow operation containing 3,724 plants near the Soda Creek drainage area of the national park.

“Law enforcement observed irrigation piping running from a water source to man-made reservoirs, used to water thousands of marijuana plants under cultivation,” authorities said in a statement.

Authorities told the Reno Gazette-Journal that the damage to the federal park is estimated to have been $9,500.

    Exactly, but the liberal Democrats don't see it that way. They want to love and coddle them and offer them Medicaid, Welfare and EBT Cards.
