Roger Christie Being Held Without Bail

The General

New Member
Hawaii - Roger Christie is an ordained minister in the Religion of Jesus Church, which regards marijuana as a sacramental herb. In 2000, he founded the THC Ministry. Part of THC Ministry's mission includes "liberating the cannabis hemp plant and the minds of those who do and of those who do not revere it," and is actively involved in the legal and social discussions surrounding cannabis use in society.

July 8, 2010 Christie and 13 other individuals associated with the THC Ministry were charged with possession and sale of cannabis. All other detainees were speedily released on bail or signature bond before trial. Judge Alan Kay ruled that Roger Christie, at over 60 years old, must remain in federal custody until his trial because Christie represents a "danger to the community." This ruling was upheld by the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals. Christie is being represented by a public defender.
