Medical marijuana caregivers and users are to gather around the Oakland County Circuit Court this Monday, May 9, to protest against the tactics used against them by the authorities of the county.
This protest signals as the start of the trial of Barb Agro, 70 years old, a registered patient who is charged with illegal drug dealing. However, Agro’s attorney, Jerome Sabotta said last Saturday that Monday’s hearing is to be dismissed.
Agro, who lives in Lake Orion, is a retired school bus driver. And according to her lawyer, Agro is a former dispatcher for the Lake Orion police with severe arthritis. She is charged with conspiracy and possession of marijuana with intent to distribute.
Jamie Lowell, one of the organizers of the protest said that the protest is not just for Agro, but to all other defendants charged with drug dealing and denied with their rights. Lowell also runs Third Coast Compassion Club in Ypsilanti. He added that two more dozens of medical marijuana defendants are recently facing trials in Oakland County.
