A Southern California couple arrested for operating a mobile medical marijuana dispensary won’t be facing any jail time — because they are no longer facing charges.
Officials from the San Luis Obispo District Attorney’s office said they are dropping charges against the Paso Robles couple, Charles Tamagni, 47, and his wife Rachel Tamagni, 57, according to Patrick Fisher, one of their attorneys, reports Cal Coast News.
“We have to get confirmation in court, but they told us over the phone that they are rejecting charges,” Fisher said.
At least six law enforcement agencies and 50 agents took part in the December 27 arrests of 15 people for growing and selling medical marijuana. During the arrests, children and grandparents were handcuffed and gunpoint, homes were ransacked and some of the arrestees were left in a cold van for hours, according to numerous sources.
