The rest of the family, she said, is Catholic. Phanor does have a criminal record, according to the Florida Department of Law Enforcement. In 1996, he was found guilty of smuggling marijuana into a prison. In 2002, he was convicted of carrying a concealed firearm. Family members said that he was not picked up during Thursday’s raid because he was already in county jail because he violated his probation on the firearm charge. The other four men — Abraham, Augustine, Batiste and Burson — had previous addresses in the North Miami area, another neighborhood of mostly Haitian immigrants. Plutarch Thelus, 17, is Burson’s cousin… In 2001, Augustine was arrested in Miami Dade County on assault and battery and disorderly conduct charges, according to FDLE records. It was not immediately clear the disposition of those charges. He was also cited for a misdemeanor marijuana possession charge. In March, Batiste was charged by the North Miami Police Department with aggravated battery; the charge is still pending. In 2000, Herrera was charged by the North Miami Police Department with aggravated assault with a weapon, carrying a concealed weapon and marijuana possession.

Most of them stopped smoking years ago. Just 27 per cent said they have had a puff within the last week. And they say they don’t smoke marijuana any more. Ninety-four per cent say they never touch the stuff. Yet a Canadian Addiction Survey recently found that pot use among Canadians had doubled in a decade, with 45 per cent of respondents using cannabis at least once within the last year. The same survey indicated that pot is a drug of choice among the middle-aged and better-educated, and that marijuana use increases with schooling, rising to 52 per cent for those with postsecondary education. If they’re fibbing about pot, the boomers may also be stretching the truth about their health… And they say they don’t smoke marijuana any more. Ninety-four per cent say they never touch the stuff.

If they’re fibbing about pot, the boomers may also be stretching the truth about their health. Most think they’ll be with us well into their 70s and 80s and 15 per cent believe they’ll make it to 90 years old. It must be all that working out they do.
