Jury Deadlocked in Federal Marijuana Dispensary Case (UPDATE: Sandusky convicted)
Aaron Sandusky, the owner of the G3 Holistic medical marijuana enterprise in California's Inland Empire, has been found guilty of conspiracy to manufacture marijuana and intent to distribute. He is in custody awaiting sentencing.
While Sandusky's plan of defense depended upon convincing jurors that he was in compliance with state law and that statements from federal officials led him to believe that the Feds wouldn't interefere, Federal Judge Percy Anderson cut off Sandusky's lawyer, Roger Diamond, at every turn.

Yeah, that's justice, refusing to let the defense present their case.

I'm sure I'm preaching to the choir, but this has never been about justice. It's about control.
