The two residents did have Medical Marijuana Patient and/or Caregiver cards, but both were found to be non-compliant with the Michigan Medical Marijuana Act.

 

No arrests have been made yet, and the investigation remains ongoing pending a review by the Mackinac County Prosecutor.

Hmm,  I have a feeling their noncompliance may not be wholly true...

 

 This is one of those stories ya definitely want to hear more about.

Oil and butter. Non compliant per Carruthers.

They need to change their name from UPSET to DEMENTED.

1.5 pounds, sure, why not,

that's what pleas are for

JIT Just In Time manufacturing is a valuable tool with marijuana production. It's part of lean manufacturing re invented in the 90's.

If they had caregiver cards, why was there a search to begin with?

1.5 pounds, sure, why not,

2 patient/caregivers-full patient list= 30oz

1.5 pds=24oz

another anti-patient comment from grass?

These numbers(which the police lie about daily), are in the zone where I am left to question their validity.

 

 Is the butter illegal? Maybe.  But I smell not the whole truth in this one.

Another made for sec. 8 case; another opportunity to nail the law down.

 

Maybe it will be dropped without a trial. This will be fun to watch.

[bobandtorey]

Do you mean a real trial when someone can use the medical marihuana defense  ?

[cristinew]

 medical marihuana defense  ??  what is that?  never heard of such a thing that works for the people,.

[trichcycler]

another anti-patient comment from grass?

anti patient?

 

no mention of patients in my post. I did mention "pleas" though, and 1.5pounds ,if you must opine.

[trichcycler]

2 patient/caregivers-full patient list= 30oz

1.5 pds=24oz

sure thing, and the popo know that. Yet they both were found to be non compliant by them, and not necessarily for the weight of the processed bud. They lie often, but they did raid these two for some reasons or another. More times than not these raids are turning up funny business with compliance issues, and how can they be so good to find these supposed " non compliant" card holders? driving even, the cops score ever month with a non compliant pull over. Luck?

[garyfisher]

slipstar.  your opinion matters not.  Nowhere is it indicated they both were caregivers or had 5 cards each.

This is why people shouldnt seek this forum for legal advice.  They read stuff like what slipstar says and think its okay to have 2 caregivers and 30oz of bud in the house.

[slipstar059]

No, I would say follow the laws of your county, township, or city, and state, unless you live on tribal land, then I would say, go by their laws.

My opinion because UPSET is involved is these individuals were selling their MMJ, just my opinion though, they obviously had enough suspicion to obtain a search warrant, yet the individuals have not been charged, sounds fishy yes...non compliant could mean their room/rooms weren't locked.

I cant count how many raids that have been executed relulting in NO prosicution. They come in, and destroy a crop, and hassel people. And no charges, no arrests. Just seizure and harrasment. Computers, tvs, and what not I have seen been returned. That Gray area.. WE need to find better ways to show the true voice of this movement..I hate living/feeling of ultimate confusion. When I had a shop, the cops pulled in and parked directly infront of the entry with their lights flashing, sat there for aprox 2-3min then shut em off and pulled away as I was comming outa the shock walking to the door..hmmmm

[trichcycler]

I've heard of other shop owners being hassled too. Stay safe

[YesMichigan]

I just wonder how much the acronym person got paid to come up with UPSET?

 

Upper Peninsula Substance Enforcement Team (UPSET). This was apparently the "East" squad. I guess all the three and four letter acronyms were taken up.

[trichcycler]

they hold an internal contest. the winner gets to be the guy with the battering ram, loser has to be the first one in, to shoot the pets and toss grenades...

[outsideinthecold]

While some might find the outcome from these raids interesting having hosted one myself my heart goes out to the latest casualties of the plant police.

No arrests have been made yet, and the investigation remains ongoing pending a review by the Mackinac County Prosecutor.

if no arrests have been made, how did the confidential patient information get from the police to the newspaper?

[AnotherPatient]

I think the problem is in the count.
