New Kinds of Marijuana Crimes

New Kinds of Marijuana Crimes. Are you thinking of opening a medical marijuana dispensary? Perhaps you should reconsider. It is true that these depots of legal distribution can be cash cows (like any pharmacy) but there is a growing trend towards dispensary break ins. Criminals have discovered how easy it can be to pull a $40,000+ job in under 3 minutes. There are so many poorly secured dispensaries popping up all over California that they have become an easy target for thieves. Even well secured locations often find that the break-ins are deterred to late. A forced entry can cause thousands of dollars in damage even if the cash and the crop is left behind.

  1. i wonder if the continued movement towards outright legalization would reduce the occurence of these crimes.

  2. Im with you. I believe Outright legalization would reduce the violent crimes and it would obviously reduce the money to be made from medicinal marijuana... But if it's completely legalized, their will be plenty of new ways to profit from growing.
    Ive always seen the medical marijuana loophole as a temporary fix to an immoral law.
