“An Arizona House panel voted on Tuesday to let police destroy marijuana they have seized, even if it was seized from legal medical marijuana patients who had a right to possess it. The panel ignored the pleas of Arizona’s former top federal prosecutor, who told members of the Judiciary Committee that SB 1441 — supposedly meant to ‘tighten up’ the state’s medical marijuana law — is an improer end-run around the Arizona Medical Marijuana Act, approved by voters in 2010, reports Howard Fischer at Capitol Media Services.”
