We're learning more about a massive illegal marijuana growing operation busted by police in Western Washington this week. One unusual aspect of this case is that the 44 people arrested at a network of grow houses were all Chinese.
"Chinese involvement in sophisticated illegal marijuana operations struck him as surprising and new, he said in an interview Thursday. But then further research uncovered recent marijuana busts involving Chinese citizens in Colorado and California, states that have also legalized pot for recreational use by adults. Court records from Colorado and California describe money transfers from China and a similar modus operandi to what investigators believe they uncovered in Western Washington".

Raids on pot grow houses finding more Chinese nationals, mysterious financing
“I’m aware of several cases where (Chinese) people have been waiting for months and months,” said the interpreter, who asked to remain nameless because he was not authorized to talk to the media. “China will not take them back. So they periodically report to an ICE agent in town and get on with their lives. But they have no legal status. Some are stateless. Their Chinese passports have expired.”
