An Artificial Limb and Dead Animals

Whenever Reddit user weedandguitars wasn’t busy finding weapons and cannabis, he was busy finding artificial limbs and something that came out of a horror movie for animals.

“I used to manage garbage men in Oakland. Routinely found dead animals, remnants of large marijuana harvests, and weapons. Once we found a rejected prosthetic limb.

Also, pretty regularly, the FBI will have a trash company pick up the trash of someone under investigation so they can go through it.

I spent some years in the trash/recycling industry. I remember a guy at a metal recycling center trying to cash in bronze grave headstones. He was arrested.”
