TURMEL: Gary Pallister gets year house arrest for 330 plants
JCT: In 2010, Gary Pallister fought off some marijuana
charges with my kits and got a sweet deal for Production and
Possession for the Purpose of Trafficking and they let his
wife, son, and girl-friend go. Originally, they wanted 5
years but they accepted 6 months house arrest.
He was recently charged again with 314 unrooted clones, 16
rooted plants, a few jars of cannabis tinctures, topicals
and edibles and was charged under S.7(1) Production, Section
5(1) Trafficking, (he admitted providing it to patients)
and S.4(1) Possession. They're only asking for 4 years this
time.

He filed another Quash motion which got dismissed and they
reduced their demand to 6 months in jail.
He threatened to file a constitutional motion which would
have taken 5-6 days. So they asked him what would be fair.
He said double his last house arrest. OK.
So he got a year house arrest with liberal conditions. He
can go out between 4:00-12:00 midnight wed-sat, Sun 4-10
p.m. Monday free time 2-6.
It's his 50th year on cannabis! Sad souvenir.
Since he plays in a band, he can go out and gig and also
have rehearsal time.
At least he didn't have to pay anything more for a lawyer.
I'd say he's a happy self-defender.
