Pot amnesty box at airport a high priority for sheriff | Aspen Daily News Online:
"Pitkin County Sheriff Joe DiSalvo said Friday that he hopes to have an amnesty box in place at the Aspen airport, aimed at people unaware it’s illegal to carry cannabis on airplanes, by the time the first recreational pot shop opens in Aspen.
The county on Feb. 12 could approve rules for recreational marijuana, and at least one operator of a medical marijuana shop has said he will be ready to provide recreational pot for non-patients above the age of 21 the next day. Recreational marijuana is already available at a shop in Carbondale.
With that in mind, DiSalvo said he would like to see a drop box installed somewhere in the terminal by then. Akin to what banks use, a container could be installed into a wall to allow bags of marijuana, pipes and other accouterments to be dropped in anonymously before a person heads through security.
