More like...it's about time marijuana was regulated and decriminalized, so grow ops like these became a thing of the past. When was the last time you heard of someone growing tobacco or distilling alcohol, so they could sell it for a profit? It simply isn't worth the risk. It doesn't happen because almost everyone would choose the legal product, even at a much greater cost. Until the government removes the temptation of massive profits, from this kind of illegal activity, we'll keep seeing stories like this. I feel bad for these people because they risked their kids and lost, but more so for their kids, who have lost their parents through no fault of their own.
