Mississippi has some of the harshest cannabis laws in the country, and pot convictions are contributing to the dire crisis of overcrowding and brutality in the state’s prisons.
Mississippi has some the harshest cannabis laws in the country. A third conviction for simple possession can land you in jail for up to six months. Selling up to 30 grams (about an ounce) is a felony punishable by up to three years imprisonment, as well as a $3,000 fine. At even simple possession of five kilograms, a 10-year mandatory minimum sentence kicks in.
The situation is exacerbated by Mississippi’s “habitual offender” laws — the state’s version of the “three strikes” law that was overturned by popular referendum in California in 2012, where nonviolent offenses are concerned. Under Mississippi law, any of the three strikes can be a cannabis conviction, with absurd sentences of up to 60 years hitting in — virtual life imprisonment.

California has stepped up its enforcement against unlicensed marijuana grow operations.
Local, state and federal law enforcement in California have arrested 148 people and eradicated nearly 1 million unlicensed marijuana plants at grow sites across the state, according to a statement from the California Attorney General’s Office.
As part of the state’s “Campaign Against Marijuana Planting” campaign, law enforcement seized and destroyed 953,459 plants at 345 cannabis grow sites across Northern, Central and Southern California, Attorney General Xavier Becerra’s office said in a statement.
Police also seized 168 weapons as part of the raids.
That’s nearly triple the number of people arrested in so-called CAMP raids in 2018, when 52 people were arrested and 614,267 plants were destroyed.
“Illegal cannabis grows are devastating our communities. Criminals who disregard life, poison our waters, damage our public lands, and weaponize the illegal cannabis black market will be brought to justice,” Becerra said in prepared remarks.

Authorities in Kern County destroyed about 10 million marijuana plants being grown under the guise of industrial hemp.
Investigators with the Kern County Sheriff’s Office seized the plants, which they estimate to have a street value of more than $1 billion, from 11 fields in the Arvin area on Oct. 25, according to a news release from the Sheriff’s Office. The seizure was first reported by the Bakersfield Californian.
Industrial hemp is a variety of cannabis sativa plant that has much lower levels of the psychoactive chemical THC than are found in marijuana. Industrial hemp grown for commercial sale must, by law, contain no more than 0.3% THC, though there’s an exemption for hemp grown for research purposes, the Sheriff’s Office said.
The plants seized by investigators were being grown for commercial consumption and contained THC contents “well over” the legal limit, meaning that they “were in fact cannabis,” the sheriff’s office said. Kern County voted to ban commercial cannabis activity in 2017.

The marijuana plants seized by investigators were being grown under the guise of hemp but were actually for consumption, authorities said.
