Marijuana provider’s death stirs questions
Denver Post – Feb 20, 2007
Gorman, 59, was shot to death Saturday night in his home in the 1000 block of South Decatur Street in Denver. No arrests were announced Monday. The marijuana activist often led pot-smoking festivals near the state Capitol. Brian Vicente, executive director of Sensible Colorado, a group pushing changes in marijuana policy, said Gorman was at the forefront of efforts to allow possession and cultivation of marijuana for medicinal purposes. Medical pot became legal in Colorado in 2000, although it is still barred by federal law. “He was ahead of his time in speaking out for sick people who deserved access to medical marijuana,” Vicente said. Marijuana providers don’t feel they can turn to authorities for protection and have to keep their lives a secret because of the political and social controversy surrounding marijuana, Tvert said… Medical pot became legal in Colorado in 2000, although it is still barred by federal law. “He was ahead of his time in speaking out for sick people who deserved access to medical marijuana,” Vicente said. Marijuana providers don’t feel they can turn to authorities for protection and have to keep their lives a secret because of the political and social controversy surrounding marijuana, Tvert said. “It’s like a basketball game with no referee, and when that happens, people take extra steps to foul individuals without penalties,” Tvert said. Marijuana providers often take extensive security measures around their homes, such as installing cameras, hiring guards and putting up extra lighting, Tvert said. Gorman recently was profiled on TV station KCNC (Channel 4) in a story about providing medicinal marijuana. Vicente believes the story might have prompted someone to rob Gorman.

Proximity To School Prompts Closure Of Medical Marijuana Dispensary POSTED: 5:55 pm PST February 20,2007UPDATED: 9:18 am PST February 22,2007. Just as some community members and county officials had hoped, the owners of the California Medical Caregivers Association at 15838 Halliburton Road agreed to shutter the dispensary, Supervisor Don Knabe’s office said earlier this week, according to the San Gabriel Valley Tribune reported. The dispensary opened in 2005. In March 2006, the county passed an ordinance that, among other restrictions, prohibited marijuana dispensaries from operating within 1,000 feet of schools, churches and libraries… “As I have said before, this is not about whether medical marijuana is right or wrong — the voters have already answered that question,” Knabe said in remarks quoted by the Hacienda Heights. “What is most critical is ensuring the safety of our children and our neighborhoods.
