Feds won't let up in California..
Know matter who demands they stop this....
Federal agents on Tuesday raided an Upland location and five others associated with Aaron Sandusky, whom they believe are illegally selling marijuana to the general public.
The Drug Enforcement Administration, aided by sheriff's deputies and police, searched the six locations connected with Sandusky and John Nuckolls, the president and chief financial officer, respectively, of medical marijuana dispensaries in Upland, Colton and Moreno Valley.
As a result of Tuesday's raid, Christopher Kenner, a client of G3, said he will organize a boycott of Upland in coordination with the collective's 8,000 patients.
Kenner, who said he had used G3's Upland site since it started in November 2009, said the boycott would start after this weekend.
"If 8,000 people don't spend money in the downtown area, I want (Upland mayor) Ray Musser to know why," Kenner said.
Sandusky, who said he will reopen today at his locations, has run the area collectives openly, saying California allows the use of marijuana when recommended by a doctor, though still illegal under federal law. .
However, that's not all that was going on at G3, Special Agent Patrick Kelly said in a 27-page search warrant affidavit.
"Based on my investigation, I believe that the G3 stores operate to make a profit and attempt to disguise the breadth of their criminal activity by claiming that they cater exclusively to persons suffering from medical illnesses, when in fact persons without any medical condition can purchase marijuana at these retail establishments," he said in the affidavit.
Undercover deputies with no health conditions but fake recommendations were able to buy marijuana from all three collectives, according to the affidavit.
