So what's the good word killerweed420 about todays trial.?

[killerweed420]

Tuesday just ended up being another pretrial hearing. The trial is now slated to start in March but no date yet. Been pretty hard to get accurate information, they seemed to be changing dates without much notice.

I wish the best for them and anyone who is a mmp but its probably a good idea to stick to the rules. These people who are having a few more than allowed are being foolish and greedy. They know the law but are not following it. It makes it hard on people who are cooperating with the law. At any rate I hope it all works out for them.

Unfortunately, here in wa. regardless if your following the rules or not, the state will charge you because the law allows it #1, and they want caselaw to work against patients, just as in the fry case which just came down from the high state court. I mtself was following the laws and got charged for 9.59 grams, so maybe the state needs to stick to the rules and hands off us all for a damn plant.:thumbsup:

Latest update for the trial from CDC. I'll be there. If any of you can make it please show up.
Mason County v. Mower/Reed - Tuesday, March 30th @ 9:00 a.m.


Karen Mower is a terminally ill medical marijuana patient. Her husband John Reed is an authorized patient as well. In January 2008, the Mason County Sheriff's "Special Operations Group" raided their home garden, seizing 38 flowering plants and 36 immature plants.

The Mason County Sheriff issued a press release announcing the raid in which they estimate each plant would produce one pound of dried pot. The press release states that both defendants are medical marijuana patients, but "the amount of product found by deputies clearly exceeded the amount the couple was authorized to possess." See: 2008 | MASON COUNTY SHERIFF'S OFFICE

Their case has been dragging on, and is finally going to jury selection. Please consider spending a day in Shelton to observe this trial. Doug Hiatt is the defense attorney. Michael Dorcey is the prosecutor. Interestingly, Dorcey has filed to run for Mason County Prosecutor.

It will be a shock to see doug not get both of them convicted. As for the numbers being a pound per plant...well if doug wasn't as arrogant as he is, he would already of gotten the info. of how much our state claims pot plants harvest indoors....it ain't no pound.

Here is why they said a pound per plant, this team which raided them is DEA based,(see the contracts on NEC420. cannabis law section.) all personnel involved must follow DEA regulations and rules. The DEA regs and rules mandate a marijuana plant is capable of producing a minimum of 1 lb. per plant....doug should be able to beat them. But, then again, when did he win at trial last.???

Ah, the law says the amount of plants at that time they got busted, was ??????????? Surly not 15. Is Orvald the dr.??? if so, holy shit goes another test case.

Hello?

If the case is two years old, wasn't the 15 plant limit established long after their arrest? How is it relevant?

[killerweed420]

The amounts won't mayyer because Karen is very sick and I'm sure she will be able to prove in court her medical neccesity. There's more of a back story here too like the case of Michael Howard, the one that was killed in Pierce County and the sheriff doesn't care. John and Karen have been a target for a long time and have already been harrassed quite a few times before.
Doug has been too laid back on this case, in my opinion. But then he may know something I don't and was hoping to just get the case thrown out.
We'll see. It should be an interesting trial and could be a pivotal case in Mason County.
