Uh no Nouge, Mr. Rosenthal, was prosecuted under a federal statute for growing more than 1000 marijuana plants.
Mr. Rosenthal was tried in a Federal court and under Federal rules. Rules which Mr. Rosenthal's attorney tried to skirt and in which the Judge said no to.
If you have a problem with the Federal law in this case, take it up to the person who probably would have sympathy for Mr. Rosenthal's plight, House Minority(Democrat party) leader, Nancy Pelosi.
