CLARE COUNTY, Mich. -- An 80-year-old grandmother in Clare County was jailed for the first time in her life, because she had a small amount of cannabis at home but her Michigan medical marijuana card expired.

June 13 around 9 p.m., Clare County Sheriff's Deputy Ashley Gruno knocked on Delores’ door. According to court records, Gruno was trying to locate Saltzman's great granddaughter, and return her lost phone and ID. That’s when the deputy smelled marijuana from Saltzman's porch.
"[The deputy] asked whose it was, correct?" Mark Saltzman asked his mother.
"Right, and I told her it was mine," Saltzman said, explaining she was honest with the deputy.

I feel so much safer now.
Give her the electric chair. it will make the BigPharma companies happy and the cannabiphobes.
Good to know that another Dillinger is off the street.
Bucket List -
[x] Go to jail.
[ ] Eat a ghost pepper.

Thank you for serving and protecting us officer!
I am glad this hardened criminal is off the porch rocker!
I do too!!, I wonder how many of his Cop friends he has ARRESTED for Illegal Possession of STEROIDS!!! I would bet my last nickel that half or more take Illegal Steroids.
Articles like these make me ill.
Have we lost common sense?
Have we lost our collective minds?
Zero tolerance is the weakest bureaucrats saying “I don’t want discretion, I’m not smart enough”
On the plus side, he didn’t shoot her dog...
GTFO!!!! The cop has zero stars in my book. Did he think he just busted a major drug ring? idiot needs to be assigned desk work the rest of his career.. what was her street name? Snoop- deadhead granny?
As you train, you shoot...
I wonder if anybody read the article.
This fool of a cop unknowingly gave a boost to full marijuana legalization, which is on the ballot in Michigan this November.
Paging Jeff Sessions...
Not me...
“I feel so much safer now.”
I’m glad I can finally leave the house now that they caught this guy.
While I recognize the absurdity of this case I keep coming back to illegal immigration and Zero Tolerance in enforcing our laws.
Why is illegal immigration out of control?
Because we selectively enforce our laws, we keep making exceptions, and those exceptions become precedent and then our laws become meaningless and unenforceable.
If we keep making exceptions why have any laws at all?
OK, does he get extra points for arresting her and jailing her sorry butt without Mirandizing her?
For your interest.
