AZ Patients, Caregivers and Dispensary Owners Threatened with Felonies

Montgomery: “Rather than allow people to take additional action an put themselves in jeopardy of prosecution at a later point in time it is more prudent now to let people know that their conduct is not authorized.”

Brahm Resnik: “A patient growing pot at home is that person at risk of being prosecuted?”

Montgomery: “Yes. You cannot grow it.”

Brahm Resnik: “Are employees of a dispensary at risk?

Montgomery: “Yes”

Brahm Resnik: “Are the owners of the business at risk?”

Montgomery: “Yes”

Brahm Resnik: “Would you open a dispensary right now? Would you even work there?”

Montgomery: “Absolutely not. . . . Part of my statements at this point in time is to literally help, help to protect those people from conducting any more business or taking another step in that direction which would jeopardize whatever resources they put into it as well as their own liberty.”

Arizona legalized marijuana for recreational use in November 2020. The law allows adults aged 21+ to purchase, possess and use cannabis. State-licensed cannabis dispensaries began selling recreational marijuana in early 2021. There are over 150 dispensaries in Arizona — a majority of them are in populous areas such as Phoenix, Tucson and Flagstaff.
