Medical Marijuana Dispensaries and Associated Issues Presented to the California Chiefs of Police Association July to September 2008 Cmdr. M. Regan The violence inherent in the manufacture, procurement and possession of drugs has been a constant issue for some time. Advocates for the legalization of marijuana to include the "Oaksterdam University" shamelessly state that marijuana does not lead to the violence and destruction associated with alcohol or other drugs. We in the law enforcement community know this to be false. The violence associated not only with growing and selling marijuana continues, but also we are see more marijuana related collisions and now some cases of murders using marijuana influence or brain damage caused by marijuana in their diminished capacity defenses Report: Accused grandmother killer was high on Robitussin and marijuana By Leslie Parrilla / San Luis Obispo Tribune / 07/17/2008 SAN LUIS OBISPO - A Cayucos man accused of killing his grandmother was under the influence of cough syrup and marijuana before he struck the elderly woman and put her into a bag, then stuffed her into a suitcase that he dumped over a remote ocean cliff, according to a crime report released Wednesday .....

Otis Jones, a 38-year-old security guard, suffocated after he was left bound and lying face down in his home..... Stanbrough was a drug dealer who had convinced his sister to help him steal the marijuana plants so he could finance his methamphetamine habits ..... The men assaulted Otis Jones and used zip ties to hog -tie him -- binding his feet and hands behind his back and then tying the limbs together so Jones was incapacitated, Francis said. He said Stanbrough and Gutierrez then stole Jones' marijuana plants, a box full of computer equipment and a P1ayStation 2 ..... Burton said the question in the trial was whether taking the marijuana plants constituted a burglary. Green argued it was not a burglary since the plants belonged to both Otis and Amanda Jones, but Francis said that it was since it deprived Otis Jones of his shared property -- even though the property was illegal. Stanbrough also was found guilty of residential burglary and false imprisonment. He was acquitted of home - invasion robbery. http: / /www.fresnobee.com /263 /story /730662.html SLO teen pleads not guilty to vehicular manslaughter, marijuana charges
