Writes J.P. Lepez, who has been keeping me up-to-date on this outrage: “It turns out that the speculation was true. This girl was busted for being a low level pot dealer, and was coerced to provide information on her suppliers by the cops. The operation went horribly wrong.” This is also a reminder that when a product or service is outlawed by government, though the market cannot be abolished, legitimate businessmen are driven out, and criminals tend to dominate.
