The Call, 06 Apr 2012 – WOONSOCKET — Sometimes painted as the Molly Hatchet of the Rhode Island medical marijuana movement, putting the axe to the state’s three proposed compassion centers before they had a chance to open, U.S. Attorney Peter Neronha says he just wants to make sure everyone knows where his office stands on the issue so there will be "no surprises" when, and if, a dispensary opens up. Gov. Lincoln Chafee put the licensing of three compassion centers that had gone through two lengthy Department of Health application processes on hold after receiving a letter from Neronha saying the centers could be subject to raids and their employees subject to prosecution.
