Man loses $60M in Bitcoin when landlord cleaned the house and sent everything to the dump by mistake
He had both BTCitcoin and Drugs. All wasted now
Lesson learned: Own a f**king room atleast when you have shit load of money and keep your codes safely.

Clifton Collins, a former security guard and a beekeeper turned weed grower/dealer, lost $60 million when his landlord cleaned out the house hed been renting and sent everything to the dump including Collins fishing rod case that hid his Bitcoin codes. Without the codes, the accounts cant be accessed.

He was stupid, and deserved it.
He ended up with over 6000 BTC. Why continue to deal drugs? He was already set for life. But he was greedy. And stupid.
All the better for us. Price will appreciate slightly, due to his stupidity. Thanks Clifton.
Almost certainly has a backup. He never challenged the seize order and seemed to be in good spirits saying more or less crime doesn't pay and the seizure was justified.
He acquired most of the btc back in 2012/13. I believe he was also arrested well before the ATH. Either way though, he was stupid moving weed in the back of his car and having a grow-house.
He split the 6000btc into 12 500btc wallets which haven't been touched since 2017 so it should be easy enough to find them. I suspect a plane ride when he gets out of jail.
