In the past few years, as some medical marijuana business people have been made into criminals in states with their own laws, no state has been more center stage than
California. The state saw the first marijuana law, so the medical marijuana industry has had longer to develop. And crackdowns have been vigorous, particularly at the hands of U.S. Attorney Melinda Haag, who covers the Northern District of California.
It is Haag who is pursuing seizure of two major Bay Area dispensaries that even the cities that host them have considered
crucial to public health and
defended in court. It is Haag who
played a key role in the raid of a dispensary that was the model for a
county program to police pot. And it is Haag who recently threatened some seemingly state-compliant dispensaries with as much as
40 years in jail.
