An 80-year-old Georgia man says he discovered more than $4,000 worth of pot while getting ready to resell a painting he bought five years ago at auction. Gordon Clement of Cherokee County bought the painting at a post office auction and was coming back from a failed attempt to resell the artwork for $25 at another auction when a family member felt something moving inside the frame – “Four pounds of marijuana inside the picture frame. I didn’t know what to do,” Clement said. He decided to take it home and call his lawyer for advice but said he was a nervous wreck on the drive back knowing he had so much of an illegal substance. Clement called his lawyer and then the police, who estimated the pot be worth $4,800.
