Pizza, Pot, and Asset Seizures

Selling Pizza is not a novel idea.  Unfortunately, neither is selling marijuana.  Selling them as a package deal however...

Apparently, this "pizza and pot" take out service was the brainchild of a Little Caesars employee in Collierville.  The employee even allowed one customer to pay for his "order" with a debit card.  After reports from a number of patrons that drugs were on the take out menu (figuratively, of course), local law enforcement stepped in and seized over 230k in assets from the business owners. 

The owners promptly filed suit against the City of Collierville and the State of Tennessee claiming that they had no knowledge that their employee was dealing out pot alongside their pizza.  The Chancery Court is currently holding the funds pending a resolution of the dispute.
