My friend charged for reporting robbery to police...

[ThaiBuddhaMan]

Yes, he was honest. And yes they were assigned. You can only incriminate yourself if you have committed a crime. If you are operating under the law than you have every right to report a theft. There is crop insurance available, so growers are going to need proof of loss. So they will NEED to be able to report such losses without fear of reprisal.

Very true and good point. I thought I read that he wasn't legal but after rereading the thread, I am mistaken. That wasn't you who post it.

"just handled the business myself."

Which was his first instinct. However not the correct one. This would have led to an actual crime, and an actual charge. Not to mention a black eye on the industry. The more people that act like this, the more scrutiny and scepticism will befall the industry.

This wasn't here in CO and was before MMJ was approved anywhere. But you are right (again) It's not the proper way to handle the situation. Oh to be young & dumb again...

I know for a fact that this is NOT the case.

Correct DA's will throw all kinds of charges out at first. As the whole bloated court legal system runs it's course, a lot get dropped or bargained away. Just more wasting of taxpayer's money...
