I don't like the standard of "some evidence" that gives police a loophole around protection from arrest. That's the same standard of evidence we give to prison inmates accused of crimes inside of prison.

What is "evidence" that a patient has been a provider to more than 1 patient in 15 days? What is "evidence" that a patient has benefit from a patient provider relationship? Sounds like anything a kidnap err kitsap county officer says it is. ie: no protection from arrest unless the officer wants to give it to you, which is the SAME THING WE CURRENTLY HAVE. How many patients in king county have been arrested under the current law?

Get rid of the loopholes and add some teeth.


The patient registry is a disaster, but its not like we all didn't see it coming. ACLU has been working on that one for a long time.

The DUI section is a disaster too, if per se limits come into play, any time a patient is pulled over they will be at risk for a DUI.

That plus patient registry = nightmare.
