Man Given 12.5 Years For Role In Tucson Home Invasion
Feb 08, 2010 - 7:28 PM - by User
The last of five men who pleaded guilty to taking part in a home invasion last May was sentenced to 12 1/2 years in prison Monday. Joaquin Manuel, 25, pleaded guilty to multiple counts of aggravated assault and one count of first-degree burglary in the case and was sentenced by Pima County Superior Court Judge Jane Eikleberry, said Deputy Pima County Attorney Dan Nicolini. Manuel and three other men kicked in the door of a home near East Valencia Road and South Nogales Highway, believing there was a large amount of marijuana there, police said. When the men found no marijuana, they went to another home on the property and kicked in the door there, too. They found no marijuana and... [Read More]

Feb 08, 2010 - 7:24 PM - by User
Nevada - Tonight, Gov. Jim Gibbons will deliver his State of the State address, in which he will discuss the serious financial crisis facing Nevada. The state reportedly needs to cut nearly $900 million in spending in order to bring its budget into balance. According to some reports, Gov. Gibbons is seeking new ways to close the budget gap and is willing to put all options on the table. With this financial crisis looming, and Gov. Gibbons’ speech coming up in just hours, Dave Schwartz, campaign manager for Nevadans for Sensible Marijuana Laws, released the following statement: “As a longtime resident of Nevada, I am seriously concerned about the state’s financial situation.

UK - The organiser of a music festival, once dubbed the Glastonbury of the North, has been forced to cancel the next event as he prepares for a costly trial. Andrew Norman has been charged with permitting the use of cannabis at his Thimbleberry Music Festival, in Stanhope, County Durham, in September. Mr Norman denies the charge and, on Friday, at Bishop Auckland Magistrates’ Court, he elected to be tried by a jury at crown court. Meanwhile, the 51-yearold, who had thousands of pounds confiscated by police under the Proceeds of Crime Act, has cancelled his next event. An announcement on the twice-yearly festival’s website says the June event is cancelled,... [Read More]

Kirsten Caroline Dunst, an American actress, model, and singer previously strived to make a good impression by not smoking real cigarettes in her movies. Kirsten, who gained widespread recognition playing the role of vampire Claudia in ‘Interview With A Vampire’, believes that smoking in films creates a bad impact on teenagers and children. The star believed cigarettes to be an addiction and once confessed she was bothered to see her friends smoke. Flixster.com quotes the actress as having said: “Everybody smokes! Models, actresses, everyone! Don’t they realize that it’s gross? I understand it’s an addiction, but it still pains me to see my friends do it.” ... [Read More]

Marijuana Prices in Chile Skyrocket Three-fold
Feb 08, 2010 - 3:02 PM - by User
Policia de Investigaciones (PDI) crackdowns on marijuana cultivation and trafficking in Chile have resulted in a shortage of the drug, sending prices sky-rocketing, government sources reported last week. In the last three years the amount of cannabis seized by the PDI has risen 107 percent. Figures show the price of one kilogram of marijuana in Santiago is currently US$1,661, while in La Calera the same amount costs US$2,400 and US$2,954 in San Antonio. In Talca, one kilo costs US$1,846, the same as further south in Puerto Montt. In Chillan, a kilogram is priced at US$1,292 and in Punta Arenas, US$2,769. During 2009, police seized 11.5 tons of cannabis and 74, 434 crop plants... [Read More]

Gardeners See Medical Pot As Growth Industry
Feb 08, 2010 - 2:58 PM - by User
Two years ago, Robin J. Schneider was a housewife who taught Sunday school. Now, the newly divorced mother has transformed her passion for organic gardening into a new career path as a medicinal marijuana caregiver. The Haslett woman is among several mid-Michigan people who expect to grow medicinal marijuana in leased space in one of a few converted buildings that may open in coming weeks in the region. This new niche, designed to meet the rising demand for medical marijuana in Michigan, is emerging against the backdrop of a struggling state economy and high unemployment. Michigan has the nation's highest unemployment rate at 14.6 percent. Similar warehouse facilities,... [Read More]

Unrepentant After 15 Years' Jail, 10 Strokes Of Whipping
Feb 08, 2010 - 2:48 PM - by User
KUALA LUMPUR - A 15-year jail term and 10 strokes of the cane seem to be no deterrence for a drug trafficker as he repeated the offence only three months after his release from prison. The 39-year-old suspect was arrested at his house in Delima Apartment, Jalan Klang Lama last Wednesday after he was found to be actively trafficking in drugs in the Puchong and Jalan Kuchai areas for more than two months. Brickfields police chief ACP Wan Abdul Bari Wan Abdul Khalid said the unemployed man was arrested at 11.30am last Wednesday following a public tip-off. "During the raid on the suspect's house, police seized from a black waist pouch, what were believed to be a compact slab of... [Read More]

How Rich People Smoke Pot

As the executive director of NORML, the leading lobbying organization for pot smokers’ rights, Allen St. Pierre gets asked a lot of strange questions. But the one he’s been getting lately is, “What is that metal thing they use on Weeds?” The answer is the Volcano Vaporizer, a smokeless inhalation device that has recently shown up on both the Showtime series and HBO’s Bored to Death, in which a sexy stoner played by Jenny Slate lures Jason Schwartzman into her bedroom to test one out. (“Just squeeze down on that nipple and suck in the vapors,” she coaches him.) It’s even used at the renowned Chicago restaurant Alinea, albeit unconventionally, to pipe aromas of nutmeg...

Authorities Bust $1.1M Pot Ring
Feb 08, 2010 - 2:33 PM - by User
New York City law enforcement have seized what they call one of the "biggest ever" stashes of cash linked to a marijuana ring. Investigators nabbed the $1.1 million from a Little Italy apartment -- and the money was all liked to the sale of marijuana, officials said. Officials told NBCNewYork the pot was all Canadian Bud -- the most expensive variety out there. The ongoing probe of the suspected money ring at 153 Mulberry St., an apartment adjacent to the Italian American Museum, has been dubbed "Here we go round the Mulberry bush" by investigators. Last month detectives and federal Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents arrested Daniel McGehean,... [Read More]

On Feb. 24, 2006, detectives stopped Michael Clark in the Hill section of New Haven, an area where police were concentrating drug interdiction efforts. Before they went on patrol, one detective said he got a call from an informant who told him there would be a light colored Chevrolet Cobalt with a Pennsylvania license plate driven by an older black male that was selling drugs. Later that day, the detective and two colleagues saw a car matching the informant’s description. At a traffic light, they pulled up next to the vehicle. One got out, approached the car and asked the driver to roll down the window. The detective noticed a strong odor of marijuana and, in the back of the... [Read More]

Father Of Medical Marijuana Speaks

Oregon - The man who opened the nation’s first “pot club” for medical marijuana users will come to town Tuesday to speak in favor of legalizing marijuana. Dennis Peron, known as the “father of medical marijuana,” supports across-the-board legalization of marijuana. In a telephone interview, he said enforcing existing laws costs the criminal justice system a fortune. Peron is scheduled to speak from 6 to 7:30 p.m., Tuesday in the Meese Auditorium in the Visual Arts Building at Southern Oregon University, 1250 Siskiyou Blvd., Ashland.

FT. PIERCE, FL. -- 32 year old Angel Luis Hernandez is asking a Nineteenth Judicial Circuit Court Judge to allow him to use marijuana for treatment of his multiple sclerosis. Hernandez, of West Palm Beach, was stopped last year on the Florida Turnpike with 6 grams of marijuana in his possession. He was given a notice to appear in court on the drug charges.

Hernandez is seeking to have his use of marijuana declared a medical necessity. Currently 14 states allow for the use of medical marijuana. Florida does not. ... [Read More]

Mountain View Could Temporarily Ban Medical Marijuana This Week
Feb 08, 2010 - 2:07 PM - by User
Ca. - The city of Mountain View is jumping into the medical marijuana debate tomorrow. City council members will vote on whether to pass a 45-day moratorium on new medical marijuana dispensaries -- to give them more time to craft an ordinance regulating medical marijuana in Mountain View. Dozens of dispensaries have opened up across Silicon Valley in the past six months -- all without the blessing of local government. Gilroy, Los Gatos, Los Altos and Saratoga have passed temporary or permanent bans on dispensaries, which are stuck in a legal gray area, between state and federal law. Mountain View says it's being forced to take the vote tomorrow -- after a... [Read More]

Green Beard Makes Arrest Easy For Police
Feb 07, 2010 - 1:29 PM - by User
UK - Police had little difficulty pinpointing a man accused of selling drugs in a city centre pub, a court heard. When officers attended the Angel, in Crossgate, Durham, on June 21 last year, they soon spotted Daniel Eric Robert Wright, as he was sporting a green beard, in keeping with reports made to police. Durham Crown Court heard that Wright was found to be in possession of 29.7g of skunk cannabis in 13 bags and £935.32 in cash. Stephanie Donington, prosecuting, said a further 56.88g of skunk cannabis was found at his home. Wright, 22, of Bamburgh Road, Newton Hall, admitted possessing a class B drug with intent to supply.

NYPD Cop Fired Over Marijuana Meatballs
Feb 07, 2010 - 1:24 PM - by User
What’s for dinner honey? For NYPD cop Anthony Chiofalo, it was meatballs spiked with a little bit of love – pot. His wife, Catherine, had admitted to investigators that she had spiked her husband’s meatballs with marijuana. She is using marijuana for medical reasons, as a therapy for back pain. In 2006, Chiofalo was fired after failing a drug test. And last week, the Court of Appeals upheld that decision, according to a report on the New York Daily News. Anthony Chiofalo has been with the NYPD for more than twenty years. He had challenged his termination by Commissioner Raymond Kelly, blaming his wife’s ingenious way of forcing him to retire and arguing that the hair sample... [Read More]

Authorities 'Hold Back Research'

Australia - CANNABIS may be a viable cure for chronic pain, but convincing the authorities is proving to be a political minefield for one pioneer. Tony Bower, founder of Mullaway’s Medical Cannabis, has developed a way to access the healing qualities of cannabis without the infamous ‘side effects’, and his weekly Nimbin dispensary is fast gaining popularity. It’s Saturday morning at Nimbin’s Hemp Embassy and its president, Michael Balderstone, is making us (conventional) tea while we wait for Mr Bower, the most popular man in town. Mr Balderstone says we’ll just have to wait. Following a serious motorcycle accident 30 years ago Mr Bower developed a... [Read More]

DA Investigates Citations Against Willie Nelson's Band Members
Feb 07, 2010 - 1:13 PM - by User
District Attorney Dewey Hudson says he wants to make sure last week's moonshine and marijuana bust of Willie Nelson's band members was above board. Longtime Nelson bass player Dan Edward "Bee" Spears, 60, of Franklin, Tenn., and five other members of the band were cited with possession of non-tax-paid alcohol. Two of them were also cited with marijuana possession. The citations came just minutes before the band was set to take the stage Jan. 28 at the Duplin County Events Center on Fairgrounds Drive in Kenansville. The performance was subsequently canceled. Hudson said he is investigating whether N.C. Alcohol Law Enforcement agents applied selective prosecution in... [Read More]

Heavy Opposition to Proposed Medical Marijuana Rule in Richfield Township
Feb 07, 2010 - 1:10 PM - by User
MI: A proposed ordinance spelling out where medical marijuana dispensaries can be located in Richfield Township has met heavy opposition even before a public hearing on its language. "You are trying to stop people from growing altogether," declared Charlie Vanlandeghem, a township businessman and surrogate father of a 23-year-old who takes marijuana as a painkiller. Vanlandeghem, who operates Van's Hydro Inc., an indoor/outdoor gardening business, told the township planning commission last week he doubts anyone could legally establish a dispensary in the township the way the current draft of the ordinance is written. The draft ordinance prohibits a medical marijuana... [Read More]

CA: Thursday's low-key police raid on a Costa Mesa marijuana dispensary operating illegally is a sign of things to come, Police Chief Chris Shawkey said Friday. Police served a search warrant on West Coast Wellness, a medical marijuana dispensary at 1260 Logan Ave. Four people were arrested on marijuana-related charges, officials said in a news release. "This should be a message to them that our intent is to take whatever appropriate action we can to close them down," Shawkey said. Thursday's raid was one of many to come, he said. Residents and local businesses had been complaining about the smell of marijuana and heavy customer traffic, he added. ... [Read More]

Shasta Supervisors Will Consider Medical Marijuana Ordinance Tuesday

Ca. - The Shasta County Board of Supervisors will consider adopting a medical marijuana ordinance on Tuesday, as recommended by the Planning Commission. The ordinance was developed by the county Planning Commission in conjunction with several other county departments after the supervisors turned down a proposed 45-day moratorium on medical marijuana dispensaries in November. The new ordinance includes zoning and permit requirements, as well as restrictions on how much and where marijuana can be grown. Department of Resource Management Director Russ Mull opposed the moratorium and said he thinks the new ordinance will adequately address the issues concerning the board. ... [Read More]

DA Says Chico City Councilors Could Face Jail Over Pot Dispensaries

Ca. - The Chico City Council's decision this week to begin drafting a zoning ordinance for medical marijuana dispensaries doesn't sit well with Butte County District Attorney Mike Ramsey. Tuesday, the council gave direction to City Attorney Lori Barker to begin drafting an ordinance that would designate where medical marijuana dispensaries could be located in the city limits and what guidelines the operations would have to adhere to. Thursday evening, Ramsey said on the surface, the council's action is within California's legal parameters. "The City Council can zone for collectives or cooperatives if they so wish," Ramsey said.

Marijuana Issue Headed To Ballot In Cottleville
Feb 06, 2010 - 1:11 PM - by User
Missouri - Cottleville voters on April 6 will tell Missouri lawmakers whether they support legalizing medical marijuana. "I realize a lot of people will not be in favor of this," said Cottleville Mayor Don Yarber. "We represent the people. Why put tape over their mouths and say you don't get to vote on this? Why not let them speak their minds and let their voices be heard?"
