Police say 59 pounds of marijuana disappeared from a police evidence room and may have been inadvertently burned, forcing prosecutors to drop charges against three Houston men.
Defendants Josue Macias, 24; Jerry Sanchez, 21; and Abel Vela, 22, were awaiting trial on possession charges when Vela's attorney asked to have the marijuana brought into the courtroom.
