Channel 2 repeated the story at 5:00, but I still can't find it on their website yet.
"A spokesperson for Williams released a statement in response to Monday night's incident:
'Montel Williams has been very open about his battle with MS in the hope of raising awareness and helping others. He has prescriptions for many different medications for ms, some of which manage his pain, which is constant. One of the medications he has been prescribed to alleviate his chronic pain is medical marijuana. While leaving the Detroit airport last evening, Mr. Williams was stopped and issued a citation for paraphernalia related to his prescription, paid a $100 fine, and boarded his flight home. The fight for compassionate care and medical marijuana is one that Mr. Williams is very passionate about and one that he continues to advocate.'"
