Man Gets a Decade in Prison for Growing Marijuana

Nghia Nguyen Mug Shot
The Lincoln Star Journal newspaper in Lincoln, Nebraska is reporting that a 34-year-old Lincoln man has been sentenced to 10 years in prison after he plead guilty in March to conspiring to grow more than 1,000 marijuana plants.

Police found hundreds of plants in three different Lincoln County homes owned by Nghia Nguyen, along with more than $48,000 in cash, a gun, a grey BMW 740i and a red Cadillac Escalade with Lamborghini-style doors.

Nguyen is a Vietnam immigrant and will likely be deported after his prison term.

Nguyen's brother Jason Nguyen says he wonders what will cause more harm, his brothers actions or the fact that  Nguyen's prison sentence will take him away from his wife and four young children. 

"How could a woman raise four kids by herself?" he said. "The past is the past. People make mistakes."

  2. Growing weed with no authorize permission is a risk. I wouldn’t say that weed is bad because it can be used as medicine. In some countries you can buy weed in the pharmacy, but if it is prescribed by your doctor.
