Police Discover Worst Cable Management Situation Ever Following Sydney Marijuana Bust

Oh god. Oh GOD. NSW Police busted a marijuana grow operation in Sydney this week, but the power situation they found inside the house is a bigger crime than growing any quantity of weed could ever be.

First reported by Buzzfeed, the NSW Police seized over $2 million worth of cannabis from a property in Mascot, Sydney yesterday afternoon.

653 plants were found and seized, and two men were arrested. They have since been refused bail and are scheduled to appear in court today.

They’re being charged with a range of offences, including allegedly stealing the electricity required to run the abominable power board.

Jesus. These guys need a Tesla Powerwall.
