Armed Agents Swoop Down on Sellers of Raw Milk and Cheese
Health Report.com ^ | 8/4/11 | BHR

Multiple sources have confirmed the fact that all three individuals arrested – James Stewart, Victoria Bloch and Sharon Palmer – are being charged with ‘conspiracy’ related to the sell of unpasteurized raw milk products.

This reportedly includes sections of the California Penal Code Section 182a. Additional charges may also be pending, including a charge of ‘mislabeling cheese’ for Sharon Palmer, was arrested during a raid of Healthy Family Farms. As video of the raid on Rawesome Foods (also raided in 2010) demonstrates, Feds not only seized cash and raw milk supplies (much of which was also dumped out) but also mangos and other fresh, organic produce.

Activists have planned a protest tomorrow outside the L.A. County Courthouse to demand the release of the raw food retailers, each held on bonds reportedly exceeding $120,000.

The raid has everything to do with an unlicensed, thus an unregulated, seller/producer of foods. It's about the power of government to protect consumers from dangerous foods. Raw milk requires lots more steps to be certified safe for consumption so woe to those impatient with regulations.

including a charge of ‘mislabeling cheese’

Are they going to add charges for "cutting the cheese" as well?

(Just how did mankind manage to survive for millenia consuming unpasteurized milk?)
