“The NYPD spent 1 million hours making 440,000 arrests for low-level marijuana possession charges between 2002 and 2012, according to a new report released Tuesday — just as legislative leaders in Albany are deciding whether to pass a bill reforming drug laws.  The NYPD did not immediately respond to a request for comment on the Drug Policy Alliance’s numbers.  Activists have been sharply critical of Bloomberg’s record on marijuana, pointing out that during his tenure, the NYPD has arrested more New Yorkers for marijuana possession than the last three mayors combined.”
