Download the NORML Daily Audio Stash for 2008-03-27
Today is Cannabis and the Law Day here at the Stash and coming up after the news we speak with Attorney Jeff Blackburn in Amarillo, Texas. He has just successfully defended Tim Stevens, a 53-year-old HIV-positive man using marijuana to treat his chronic vomiting syndrome. Tim was prosecuted for possession of marijuana and twelve jurors agreed with his medical necessity defense and set him free, which may be a first in a Texas marijuana case.
Then Cannabis Karri brings us a great tokin’ tune from the UK and a band called The Den Collective with their song “Mary Jane, I’ve Smoked My Last One”. Hmm, does that mean they’re quitting… or they have just run out?
And to conclude our show, we speak with Skaidra Smith-Heisters from the Reason Foundation. She is the author of a new study, Illegally Green – The Environmental Costs of Hemp Prohibition.
We’ve got a lot to cover, so sit back and relax with your favorite strain and enjoy your Daily Audio Stash…
