Marc Emery, who is constantly in the news these days, is now warning his customers to beware of a possible entrapment operation run by US and/or Canadian law enforcement agencies:
B.C. pot activist Marc Emery is warning his marijuana seed customers their orders may have been intercepted by U.S. justice officials.
He also alleges that those people are now being sent letters by drug enforcement authorities in a surreptitious move to entrap them. "These people are being set up to be busted in their own homes," Emery said on Monday. "They should be very alarmed."
He called the move "ominous in a way Canadians aren't used to."
Emery is the Canadian activist wanted on drug charges in the United States on conspiracy to sell marijuana seeds in that country. The U.S. wants him extradited from Canada to face the charges.
Anyone who has had dealings with Emery's business in the past should already be aware that they are at risk of (at the very least) much greater scrutiny now that Emery himself is the focal point of a major investigation. You don't have to be paranoid to make the fairly obvious leap of logic that those with whom he has been doing business are now also going to be investigated.
Consider this my public service announcement for the week.
