Police stumble on $500mn opium poppy field in North Carolina

Undercover deputies in Catawba County, North Carolina stumbled on a field of opium poppy plants while conducting a separate investigation. The property owner, Cody Xiong was charged with manufacturing and trafficking opium, both felonies.

An undercover sheriff deputy was at Xion’s property conducting a warrantless “knock and talk,” following up on a tip about another matter.

Xiong opened the door, saw the investigator on his porch, and immediately confessed.

“I guess you are here for the opium,” Xiong said, according to the Washington Post.

The investigator wasn't, but he was intrigued. Behind Xiong’s home investigators discovered a field of poppies with its bulging seed pods planted in tidy rows and obscured by trees.
