high from the Coachella Valley, Southern California, cultivator

[beentheredonethat]

I wanted to say howdy and hello , I grow and am a qualified patient under SB420. but oh that didnt stop the cops from busting me for cultivation and child endangerment. oh the judicial system sucks, but come on 67 days in jail fighting my case without an attorney, I was forced to plead guilty, but I am trying to withdraw my plea.. long story

hit me up if you want to chat, thanks beenthere

[jiggsaw]

How did they put you in jail I'm in the cv too . I got my rec .

[beentheredonethat]

long story short they were called by my landlady , I had a small grow in my closet, police knocked and I stepped outside and closed the door , they said I had a warrant for traffic , they cuff me and ask if they can search , I tell them no , they go in anyway , I told them I had my recommedation but they didnt care, I plead not guilty and fired my public defender . Longer story sixty + days in jail waiting for jury trial.

Seems corrupt that they can search. But they had the complaint of trafficking so they could search.. Its like the case were the guys got busted smoking in a car. The cops smelt the pot so they had a right to search. Weird. But if you have a recommendation... Then you're case should be a little different.. Not absolutely sure. The child endangerment charge is a bullshit charge. They just can't stand that the herb is legal so they want you to go down for something man.. Good luck!!!

Where I got my weed card they said call them if the cops harass me and they'll pay the legal fees and give me lawyer. I'm legally allowed to grow weed to like 6 plants.

[PurpFreshy]

Hmm. I would call them up.

did you get your card local ? P.S. maybe ?

[PurpFreshy]

Beenthere, have you requested to take a look at the police report? This may help show what they have and don't have on you.

I have the police report, they only had a complaint of growing from my landlady,
I am not sure what your asking

[PurpFreshy]

Alright, so in other words they just have a report stating "Lady complains about man growing his medicine, in which he was legally allowed to grow, and has a license to do so."
Correct?

[beentheredonethat]

correct. they did a knock and talk, I stepped out and closed the door behind me, they said they smelled MJ, and asked if they could enter, I said NO. they told me I was wanted for traffic , they took me to jail and search my apt , under the guise of a security sweep. then they call a task force detective who searched with no warrant, then he went and got one , returned and processed the evidence. I told them that if I did have plants growing that it would be legal hence being a qualified patient Under SB 420. they charged me anyway . and I have been fighting the case over a year, I was on bail, but one time after many court apearance I was a day late and they remanded me to custody , I sat in the jail for two months waiting trial, acting as my attorney.

I wasnt being afforded my rights , I could not prepare a defense , I was going nuts, and jail was getting rough and violent. I plead guilty under duress, with the knowledge that I could withdraw my plea. well its not been easy

[PurpFreshy]

They did that knowing you'd crack. They were just stalling. It's usual. They had nothing on ya man. They got it out for the herbies. We can do something they can't. Hahahah. Let the police cry. The system's corrupt man. I'm sorry that had to happen to ya. You seem like a good guy.

[jiggsaw]

That's pretty fucked up man, yeah I got my card in P.S. They fucked you because you didn't have a lawyer. You should still talk to one and sue those bastards .

[PurpFreshy]

Yeah I agree. Hit one of those guys up. Check out the legal part of the orum and check for more similar cases... I'd say you can your case all resolved and stuff. They should not hold it against you. YOUR LEGAL!!
