#PatientsNotCriminals Press Conference
Over three dozen patients gathered to show the public that they are patients, not criminals, and that the law needs to change to allow them to use medical cannabis without fear of prosecution. Salt Lake County District Attorney Sim Gill joined the group to call for fixing our failed drug policy, and ensuring that he as a prosecutor does not have to prosecute sick and suffering Utahns for the sole reason that they have used cannabis to help themselves.
Due to a technical error, only the second half of our press conference was recorded. Here are media reports from the event:
