Police discovered three more marijuana fields in DFW, this time around Rockwall and Collin County. The total number of plants seized was 1,095, amounting to nearly a million dollars if sold in this progressively more demand unbalanced DFW market.
According to Garland police, Jason Mineo, 39, is believed to be the proprietor of the fields in question. He is currently being held in Rockwall County jail on possession charges. Police also found a number of guns and ammunition on his property, in addition to 10 pounds of harvested pot.
Said unnamed local man, "That's a lot of plants. Dude, I can totally get rid of those for you."

Something that came to me while reading about these fields recently, was that the discovery of them, almost surely resulted in someone's murder=/

This must be a relative of Flash Gordon Mineo. Who died last year on Lake Texhoma during a speed boat race.
