I think Alaska allows each citizen to grow a few plants at thier house.

I am surprised the State is taking such a hard stand on this case.

I suppose mocking government officials is never a good idea.

And yes, I consider making a donation for your pot mocking the government.

Stupid bitch just needed to wait until the regulations were in place before doing ILLEGAL shite. Not that hard.

Then she plays the race card. F her. Facing 54 years is one thing, she might get 5 at best, if that anyway. And if she doesn't do any prison time, she should never be allowed to to have a license to sell for the rest of her life. Dumb bitch.

she fine, but she's all kinds of ate up w/ the BLM disease. She just put out a blog titled "the lynching of Charlo Greene"

Her attorney recently quit and joined the prosection team against her and refuses to return the retainer that was paid.

She's getting railroaded but that's the price you pay when you want to be a martyr. She did bring attention to get the legislation passed but she shouldn't have admitted to running an illegal distribution network.

They did a really poor job of keeping the process segregated, it's like the bitch never watched the Wire.

That sounds like a major conflict of interest right there

Yes instead of having her pay taxes and contributing to economy now she is going to go to prison on the tax payers dime for selling a plant.

54 years is beyond absurdity. Violent offenders seldom face that sentence.

She doesn't think her counsel will work against her, but common sense tells me there will be dinners and drinks will be had (attorneys drink like fish) and her former attorney will let some info slip

54 years for weed? Man, this is some bullshite.



Yep. Kill, rape, kidnap, etc someone and get sentenced to 20-40 yrs and be out on probation in less time than that.

Sell pot and go for 54 yrs and probably end up serving more time than violent offenders or even repeat violent offenders.

Makes a lot of damn sense. This system is so fricked I don't know if it is even within reach of being fixed any more.

"Failed"

And I don't give 2 fricks if someone has 5 tons of weed they are caught with. It's time to stop prosecuting people for weed.

Lets take all that money that they essentially waste fighting weed (because it's so plentiful) and put it towards fighting the real problem tearing up our inner cities AND suburbs, heroin/prescription opiates.

We wouldn't even have to cut all those law enforcement jobs either (which is a big reason why they don't stop the war on drugs). Instead, refocus that money, time and energy to something more serious.

As an adult, it sickens me we can walk in to a store to buy alcohol, but can't buy some weed. Where's the freedom in that?

she'd get out early once MJ was legalized at the federal level (within 16 years) or at the state level (probably within next 10 years in libertarian Alaska).


It already is legalized in Alaska, she's being prosecuted for selling without a license- which makes this all the more ludicous because what she was doing would be equivalent to being unlicinsed by the ATF or whoever and reselling bulk-purchased cigarettes and/or booze for a reduced price while skirting taxes. While definitely a crime, I can't imgigine the punishment for that crime would approach half a century- don't even know if she was neglecting to pay taxes on her business.
