WAUSAU — – A “Narco Prayer” caught the attention of Wausau police when they executed a search warrant Monday on the city’s west side and arrested two people in connection with marijuana trafficking.

The hand-written note says, in part (punctuation added): “Thank you Heavenly Father for my business. Thank you for my family and my customers. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to provide for them. ... Thank you for keeping law enforcement away from my game and the informants unaware of my moves.”

The department posted a photo of the poster on its Facebook page Tuesday afternoon.

Multicolored block letters spell out the “Narco Prayer” title, and flowers and dollar signs decorate the top of the poster, which was hanging in the residence where a 34-year-old man and an 18-year-old woman were arrested in connection with the investigation. Police found drug paraphernalia and about 50 grams of marijuana in the residence, said Lt. Matt Barnes of the Wausau Police Department.

Barnes said a portion of the drug culture glamorizes the use and sale of drugs through posters, hats and clothing but that a poster like the one police found is not necessarily representative of everyone involved in illegal drug use.

“It was funny and sad at the same time,” Barnes said of the poster.

He said the man and woman, whose names were not immediately released, would make their first appearances in Marathon County Circuit Court on Wednesday.
