After several police reports of powerful odors coming from the Russo family’s home, police took action. They raided the house only to discover 50 lbs of basil. The neighbors must not have been Italian…
An officer stated, “It’s red tape and the fact that dried basil isn’t actually illegal, even in large quantities.”
