The owner of Pazzo's Pizzeria, David Mendoza, has been slapped with more than a decade in prison time for smuggling pot into the US, reports Seattle Weekly's Vernal Coleman:

Mendoza's long trip through the federal judicial system finally came to a close yesterday after a federal judge sentenced him to 14 years in prison for his role in a prolific marijuana smuggling operation.

The real bad news:

But along with his sentencing comes some worrisome news for Pazzo's fans: The pizzeria, in addition to all of Mendoza's other businesses, were seized after his admission that all of them were purchased with ill gotten gains obtained from the drug conspiracy. So, get a slice while you can, as there's no telling who officials will eventually sell the pizzeria to, or what that buyer might have planned for it.
