medical About 18 months after police raided his home, seizing marijuana and other property, David Willson got his "medicine" back Thursday.

Police officials released growing equipment and several guns last Friday, after San Joaquin County Superior Court Judge K. Peter Saiers ordered the return of all the property taken in the Jan. 24, 2000, search at Willson's rural Manteca home. But officials held onto the marijuana while considering an appeal.

Ah, those "quotes". Speak volumes, don't they? You can just see the stodgy old ink-stained wretch who covers the police beat (and drinks regularly with the pigz.)
Newspaper circulation keeps dropping, Ken!

to be fair...
"In a statement, Police Chief Charles Halford said he was not happy.


"In this case, no, I am not happy to return the property, but we will do our job as required by law," Halford said.


Police spokesman Rex Osborn said the marijuana is likely to have lost potency in storage.


"It probably has very little THC value," he said, referring to the chemical component. "We don't store it in a way to preserve its value."
"

Is it just me, or does the spokesman appear happy that there is less medicinal value? They ought to have to reimburse the guy at street value...

Survey Study
"Willson took prescription drugs as a child to curb depression, hyperactivity and headaches."

Headaches are one of the main indications for clinical cannabis and are explicitly recognized in Proposition 215.

After months of wrangling, investigational review board discussion and countless phone calls to agencies in Washington, I was able to gain approval for the electronic distribution of a questionnaire dealing with cannabis in headache treatment, whether migraine, "tension" or cluster. The idea is to ascertain the degree of relief clinical cannabis patients obtain for their headaches.

I would greatly appreciate your helping me distribute this to potential candidates, or perhaps posting it on one of your WWW sites. It is a legal study in the USA, and we have verbal assurances that no federal agency will investigate or prosecute participants. Merely E-mail me at erusso@blackfoot.net for a copy.

Many thanks for your consideration.
All best wishes,
Ethan Russo, MD
