olice made inquiries with the previous owner of the house, a family trust, and found out who the tenants were before the couple bought the property.

None of the tenants said they had any knowledge of the money, nor did any of them have a criminal history which suggested they may have acquired it illicitly.

"Hey guys, it's us, the police! We found this drug money in a house you used to live at, was it you selling the drugs?"

It's a lot of money but also what possible benefit could they have to admitting it's their drug money 😆

Exactly what I thought, nobody is going to own up and say it was theirs.

I'd love to know how that much cash ended up in a ceiling space though, someone must know it's there, but has decided it's not worth the risk to come back and get it. Or they're in prison.

Maybe there was a lot more but they took it? It's a lot of money to us but if you had cartel connections I imagine it's the equivalent of change that got stuck in the couch.

I find it hard to imagine that being small change to anyone, but I can see someone writing it off as a loss.
