Six plants and some documents were taken the same day from the home of John Worthington, a CannaCare associate in Renton, but as of early Friday no charges had been announced and leaders of the group denounced the action as politically motivated harassment for activity they said was legal under state law. The raids on the homes of Worthington and Steve Sarich, head of CannaCare, were conducted by the federally funded West Sound Narcotics Enforcement Team on Jan. 12, five days before a series of raids on nearly a dozen marijuana clinics in the Los Angeles. “Since they don’t like medical marijuana, this is an attack on the people that support it,” Sarich said… Six plants and some documents were taken the same day from the home of John Worthington, a CannaCare associate in Renton, but as of early Friday no charges had been announced and leaders of the group denounced the action as politically motivated harassment for activity they said was legal under state law.

Worthington noted that he sent information to the Legislature last week accusing members of the drug team, which is based in Kitsap County, across Puget Sound from Seattle and Everett, of circumventing state law by turning marijuana cases over to federal authorities. California, Washington and nine other states allow limited possession and use of marijuana for medical treatment. The state laws are not recognized by the federal government, which bans marijuana altogether.

All but one of the adults were arraigned Wednesday in Girard Municipal Court; Pezzuto was arraigned Thursday after surrendering to Girard police… The probe was conducted by Detectives Gregory Manente and John Norman. The chief pointed out the arrests are an indication of a drug problem in the city, including the schools. Bigowsky explained that police received a tip of the marijuana sales and the case “snowballed. ”
“It’s pretty basic police work,” he said of the investigation. Bigowsky said his officers will continue their investigations into drug trafficking, educate students about drugs and provide free test kits for parents to test their children for drug use. Two kits are available that test urine for the presence of cocaine and marijuana. Parents can then decide if they want to get help for their children.
