Medical Marijuana "guru" [Ed Rosenthal] was found guilty on 3 felony counts. Repeatedly, defense lawyers tried to put the purpose of Rosenthal's operation in front of the jury in spite of Breyer's orders. Those attempts were the source of constant sparks in the courtroom. Jury foreman Charles Sackett [III] spoke to reporters after the trial. "We had no legal wiggle room," said Sackett, who added that he hopes the verdicts are overturned on appeal, according to The Associated Press. [Hilary Mc Quie], campaign coordinator of Americans for Safe Access, said she spoke to five jurors, all women. "I asked them if they understood it was medical. And they said they did, and they felt really, really badly about it," [McQuie] said. Did they know about Jury Nullification? This seems meaningful to the War On Drugs.
