CROWN APPEALS POT CRUSADER ACQUITTAL
Calgary -- The Crown has decided to appeal an Alberta court ruling that
said marijuana crusader Grant Krieger was justified in breaking the law by
selling pot to chronically ill people.
Mr. Krieger said yesterday the appeal documents indicate the Crown will
argue the trial judge erred in law when she instructed the jury that the
defence of necessity could be justified.
