GURU OF GANJA

SAN FRANCISCO (AP)- A marijuana advocate and the jury that convicted
him are making an unexpected show of solidarity: Jurors claim they
were misled and the defendant says it isn't them he blames.

Ed Rosenthal, the self-described "Guru of Ganja," was allowed Tuesday
to remain free on $500,000 bail until his June 4 sentencing on federal
drug violations.

Jurors said they felt cheated because they weren't allowed to here
that Rosenthal supplied Oakland's medical marijuana program, an
outgrowth of a 1996 medical marijuana initiative that conflicts with
federal law.
