The Boulder County Drug Task Force announced Thursday it had arrested 10 people in connection with selling drugs on or near the Pearl Street Mall, including Jeff Christen-Mitchell, a Libertarian candidate for Boulder County Commissioner in 2004.
Christen-Mitchell was charged with one count each of distribution of marijuana; conspiracy to distribute marijuana; possession of marijuana with intent to sell; possession of more than 8 ounces of marijuana and possession of a schedule II controlled substance.
Other defendants facing various charges include Donald McNeese, April Martinez-Laveta, Justin Boyer, Greta Duderstadt, Charles Weddle, Dallas Elviro Dilaura, Diana Stough, Kenneth Finney and Joseph Gulla.
Warrants for the arrest of Daniel Rogers and Jerimiah Jordan, who are at large, were also issued.
A press release from the BCDT said the warrants came as the result of a three-month investigation that “had identified several persons involved in the distribution, and conspiracy to distribute, marijuana and controlled substances.'”
The release said the investigation also netted three search warrants, about $7000 in drug proceeds, 50 ounces of marijuana, 1 ounce of psilocybin mushrooms, assorted prescription drugs and some stolen property.
Authorities said in the release that the Task Force targeted the Pearl Street Mall because of its status as “a shopping, social and work destination for people living in Boulder and the surrounding area” and because “this activity attracts an element of people that detracts from the positive atmosphere of the mall and negatively impacts most people's quality of lifeŠ”
First, I'm not breaking the law. Second, Dixon committed a felony in NYC. What do you suggest we do about his transgression? Please answer the question. If you can. (And especially if you can do it without implying that I engage in criminal conduct.)
Right. A real life, not a drug induced fake one.
And I just don't get this need for people like you to assume that I engage in criminal drug use, when in fact I merely disagree with the War On (some) Drugs, and all its trappings. What is it about your need to presume criminal behavior? Maybe you should think about going to a head doctor and having him prescribe something.
He should be sentenced per the laws of the land where he is. I refuse to live in New York. It's a hopeless wasteland to me.
Drug users commit a kind of taqiyya when it comes to drugs. Lies lies lies. You're no better off trusting an islamic than trusting a drug pusher.
What makes you think I trust drug pushers? Or are you calling me a drug pusher, and you don't trust me?
I just want to say that the LP has more ideas than drug policy.
/sarcasm
Shall we talk about the honesty of drug warriors? Starting with the factual documentary, Reefer Madness?
Um, you are confused. I never even suggested you used illegal drugs, much less engaged in other criminal behavior. Save your rants for where they are appropriate. Otherwise you end up looking paranoid.
Irrelevent, that's a million years ago. You're doing the lies now.
"There are 100,000 total marijuana smokers in the US, and most are Negroes, Hispanics, Philipino's and Entertainers. Their Satanic music, jazz and swing, result from marijuana usage. This marijuana causes white women to seek sexual relations with Negroes, entertainers and any others." -- Harry Anslinger, Commissioner of Narcotics to Congress, why marijuana should be made illegal, 1937. (Marijuana Tax Act, signed August 2 1937; effective Oct.1, 1937)
Since that time the fed.s have spent billions and imprisoned millions of otherwise innocent U.S. citizens and we now have 10's of millions of U.S. citizens who routinely enjoy the use of cannabis. Oh - how our government wastes our money. Be sure to pay your federal and state taxes - Tis the season to fork it over.
Do you know the difference between second person and third person?
Sounds like you guys need to take some time off 'enjoying "cannabis"'.. I notice you're trying to use the wording intentionally there. Nice try.
"A million?" LOL!
What lies have I posted?
OK, now you no longer SOUND paraniod. Now you ARE paranoid. My point had nothing to do with the distincition between second and third person. You were ranting about how people always assumed that you engaged in criminal activity. I correctly pointed out that I made no such accusation.
Don't just rule out my head doctor suggestion, but if there is something you feel like you need to get off your chest, perhaps a priest might be a better option.
There's a place and a time for every thing.

"

That's some attitude to have about drugs. I assume you've tried them all then. How often?
War or not, it is a crappy way to live.
Wrong.
I correctly pointed out that I made no such accusation.
Wrong again.
And I just don't get this need for people like you to assume that I engage in criminal drug use, when in fact I merely disagree with the War On (some) Drugs, and all its trappings.

Show me where I assumed that you engaged in criminal behavior or stop wasting my time.
