Helena Independent Record, 03 Jan 2013 – Paul Schmidt, owner of the former medical marijuana dispensary Sleeping Giant Caregivers in Helena, has been sentenced to one year in prison for growing marijuana and money laundering and ordered to forfeit $750,000 in alleged profits. In letters to Senior U.S. District Court Judge Charles Lovell, friends wrote that Schmidt, 57, only became a caregiver after seeing how medical marijuana helped his adult son deal with debilitating, chronic pain and deserved little, if any, prison time.
