Text: On April 21, 2006, shortly after Bossow left his residence, police officers executed the search warrant at Bossow's residence. In Bossow's upstairs bedroom closet, police found a ceramic pot containing four marijuana plants, a heat lamp, and a water spray bottle. The marijuana plants had grown to be 3 to 4 feet in height. In other areas of the house, police also found two triple-beam scales and a marijuana pipe. A police officer who assisted in the search testified that the marijuana plants had a viable root system and would develop and if nurtured or cultivated [would) produce a product. The officer further testified that these plants were not mature plants, nor were they robust for this stage of development. The officer stated that the plants were about average and that he had seen worse.
