It's a tragedy for me to see the dream is over...

Would-Be Cop Charged With Growing Pot In Woods
Monday December 19, 2005 5:40pm

Wheaton, Md. (AP) - In a small wooded area of Wheaton, investigators say something was growing that definitely should not have been.

It seems someone set up a marijuana garden in Matthew Henson State Park. Most people never knew it was there, about 100 yards off Georgia and Hewitt avenues. But police spotted it from the air a few months back and set up a surveillance camera.

They quickly caught a man pouring a mixture of water and fertilizer on the plants. The Maryland National Capital Park Police wound up harvesting 121 plants, worth 1,000 dollars apiece. Then they showed people in the neighborhood pictures of the suspect.

That led them to arrest 22-year-old Alvaro Quinonez - a Montgomery College student studying criminal justice so he can be a cop.

Instead, he faces a variety of criminal charges.

Great. Now I have a Milli Vanilli song stuck in my head.
