Letter from US DOJ Federal Attorneys in Washington State Jenny Durkin and Michael Ormsby to Governor Gregiore in 2011 about possible criminal charges on state officials for setting up a regulated medical cannabis market. However, it appears this law shows it's not true...and why no other state's officials have been prosecuted for facilitating their state laws for medical cannabis use...
United States Code
TITLE 21--CONTROLLED SUBSTANCE ACT
SECTION 885 (d)
Burden of proof; liabilities
(d) Immunity of Federal, State, local and other officials
Except as provided in sections 2234 and 2235 of title 18, no civil or criminal liability shall be imposed by virtue of this subchapter upon any duly authorized Federal officer lawfully engaged in the enforcement of this subchapter, or upon any duly authorized officer of any State, territory, political subdivision thereof, the District of Columbia, or any possession of the United States, who shall be lawfully engaged in the enforcement of any law or municipal ordinance relating to controlled substances.

Why would the federal attorneys and our former Governor (also an attorney) say those things if there was no risk of prosecution? Because the Police Lobby wants to kill the medical market through I-502.
