LIBERTARIAN PARTY CANDIDATE ARRESTED
The 1998 Libertarian Party candidate for governor and his wife were
arrested after authorities found some 300 marijuana plants in their
home.
Steve and Michele were detained Tuesday at their Olympic Valley
home near Tahoe City for investigation of cultivation of marijuana,
possession of marijuana for sale and conspiracy.
They were being held Wednesday at the Placer County jail in Auburn in
lieu of $100,000 bail each, and were scheduled to be arraigned today
in Tahoe City.
The couple's attorney, Dale Wood of Truckee, said the marijuana was
being legally grown for medical purposes.
