beware: the perils of cannabis & craigslist

10/31/2013

0 Comments

 
Krish Singh, a 44 year old man from Sonoma County, attempted to sell a pound of cannabis on craigslist for $2,700, but ended up selling it to an undercover cop in a Target parking lot. The policeman arrested Singh even though he possessed a valid doctor's recommendation to use cannabis alleging he was trying to make a profit and slapped him with a felony possession for sale. Singh represented himself in court and got all of his criminal charges dropped but the judge would not release his pound of cannabis.

FDA APPROVES CBD-BASED DRUG

10/28/2013

0 Comments

 
The United States FDA has approved a drug made by GW pharmaceuticals that is comprised of CBD (Cannabidiol). The drug is called “Epidiolex™” and was designed to treat seizures and conditions such as epilepsy. CBD is a non psychoactive component found in small amounts in most
cannabis strains (although with an increased demand the market is responding with more strains high in CBD). Physicians will investigate the affects of the medication on patients with approval from the FDA. The program is being carried out under the FDA’s informal so-called “compassionate” IND program that made federally-grown medical cannabis available to a fortunate few starting in the 70’s. Here is a great write-up with much more information: http://www.beyondthc.com/comes-now-epidiolex-fda-approves-ind-studies-of-cbd/

Dabbing in California

10/16/2013

0 Comments

 
Butane hash oil (BHO), AKA wax, shatter, honey oil is a concentrated solvent based THC extraction method that produces some of the highest potency hash that is known. Qualified patients in California are allowed to posses and purchase BHO from dispensaries and are protected by
California law.  However, if you want to make some of your own BHO do so at your
own legal risk. The 2008 Bergen decision makes it unlawful to practice the chemical extraction and can land you up to 7 years in the pen. For more details check out http://www.eastbayexpress.com/oakland/a-little-dab-could-doom-ya/Content?oid=3518696

landlord settles government forfeiture case

10/11/2013

0 Comments

 
On Tuesday 10/8/13, Federal prosecutors dropped a civil asset forfeiture
case against an Anaheim city landlord, Tony Jalali. Jalali and the government
entered into a “stipulated agreement” that is still awaiting approval from a
judge. Par for the course, Federal prosecutors did not comment on the particular
agreement. The agreement is one of the first major marijuana court cases to come
after the U.S. Department of Justice announced that it would not go after legal
cannabis in states with “strong and effective regulatory and enforcement
systems.” Jalili’s attorney said, “this is a case that should never have been
filed.” For more info check out the article:
