Scarsdale Mom Accused of Dealing Pot Evicted

The Scarsdale mother who is accused of dealing millions-of-dollars worth of marijuana has been evicted from her home. The house is now back up for rent, for $13,500 a month. The ritzy house is 5,438-square-feet and has five bedrooms. The home is worth about $2 million. 

Earlier in the week, Andrea Sanderlin had been indicted on charges of operating a multi-million dollar marijuana growing operation. The indictment came down at the federal courthouse in Brooklyn. Sanderlin remains behind bars at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn. 

Sanderlin is accused of growing and trying to sell more than 1,000 marijuana plants out of a Queens warehouse. The charges contrast with the mother of three's lifestyle, which recently included horseback riding lessons with her daughter at Twin Lakes Farm riding academy in Bronxville.

"(Sanderlin) chose to inhabit the shadowy underworld of large-scale drug dealers, using drug proceeds to maintain her family's facade of upper middle class stability," said U.S. Attorney Loretta Lynch.
