US CA: Yuba County Sheriff Targets Pot Growers

Appeal-Democrat, 29 Aug 2012 – While Yuba County’s controversial medical marijuana ordinance is being discussed in closed-door legal proceedings, county growers said they’re getting a negative message from law enforcement. Several times in the last few weeks, the Yuba County Sheriff’s Department has raided growing sites across the county, even though those overseeing the sites were in compliance with state law, said Sam McConnell, president of the Yuba County Growers Association.
