Gordon Clement, of Cherokee County, said he found thousands of dollars worth of drugs hidden in the painting.
The 80-year-old recounted how he discovered 4 pounds of marijuana stashed inside the frame of the painting he owns.
Clement bought the painting at a post office auction about five years ago. He discovered the drugs last weekend while trying to sell the artwork at another auction. Clement wanted $25 for the painting.
“It didn’t sell,” said Clement. But while a family member was lifting the painting back into the truck, they felt something moving inside. A worker then pried open the back with a screwdriver.
“And that’s when the discovery was made … 4 pounds of marijuana inside the picture frame,” said Clement.
“I didn’t know what to do,” said Clement.
Clement’s lawyer told him to call police, which he did. Investigators told Clement that the pot was worth $4,800.
So since the pot was 5 years old, is it still good enough to smoke? I mean does weed has an expiration date?
