State Rep. Cited For Marijuana Outside Steelers Game
PITTSBURGH—A western Pennsylvania lawmaker is accused of smoking marijuana while tailgating last month outside a Pittsburgh Steelers game.
Pittsburgh police say state Rep. Paul Costa was caught sharing a marijuana cigarette with another man in the parking lot of Heinz Field on October 3. An undercover officer says he saw the Allegheny County Democrat and another man passing the joint between them.
Costa's attorney says his client adamantly denies the allegation. Phil DiLucente says Costa "detests marijuana."
Costa and the other man each face a single misdemeanor charge of engaging in prohibited acts. They face a hearing on November 24.

Rapper Wiz Khalifa - Gets Busted With Marijuana Trafficking
Rapper Wiz Khalifa, named MTV’s “Hottest Breakthrough MC of 2010,” was arrested Monday night following a standing room only concert at East Carolina University.
Khalifa, who is a vocal advocate for marijuana and often touts his own use, was stopped while going to his tour bus to meet his band mates. John Durham, a spokesperson for East Carolina University, stated that ECU police stopped Khalifa as he left the concert venue. According to Durham, “He was on his way with his band to his bus parked outside, and they stopped him because of a strong odor of marijuana emanating from the bus and the backstage area of the auditorium.”
Khalifia cooperated with the police and was subsequently arrested along with nine members of his entourage for three marijuana related charges. Police allegedly seized about 2 ounces of pot during the arrest.
Khalifa, born Cameron Thomaz, was booked into the Pitt County Detention Center early Tuesday morning, where he was charged with one felony count of trafficking in marijuana, one felony count of maintaining a vehicle for sale or storage of marijuana and a misdemeanor charge of possession of drug paraphernalia. He quickly posted $300,000 bail and was released at 8 a.m. He was released along with one other entourage member who remains unnamed.
No indications were mentioned by police that they had found any evidence to support the trafficking allegation.
In North Carolina, possession of more than 1 1/2 ounces of marijuana is considered a felony and punishable by up to 12 months in jail. Most legal analysts don’t think the prosecutor will want to go to trial preferring to offer a plea bargain.
Khalifa tweeted to his fans that at about 11 a.m. ET, he had bailed out all of his entourage and was going to eat lunch.

NYPD Suspects in Greenwich Village Shooting of Alex Bongard, Son of NYU VP
The frightened woman inside a Greenwich Village apartment when masked bandits stormed inside and shot two suspected drug dealers recalled the harrowing moment when she thought she would die.
The 27-year-old crouched in the corner of a bedroom as the men posing as customers burst into the Bleecker St. home late Monday and shot her friends - one of them the son of a top NYU fund-raiser.
"They busted the door down in the bedroom," she told the Daily News on Wednesday night. "It was the most terrifying, horrifying experience I've ever been in."
The two men demanded cash before one of them pulled out a handgun and shot both Alexander Bongard, 24, and his ex-con pal, 31-year-old Lucas Hinde, in the chest.
"I was hiding under a chair and they shot Luke," said the woman, who asked not to be identified because the bandits were still on the loose. "He was begging them not to shoot. He said he had a son."
But the heartless man fired anyway.
Hinde "walked towards the bedroom, grabbed the wall and collapsed," she said. "I saw the blood and I screamed."
She tried to cover the sound with her palm, but it was too late. The room went still.
"There's another one," she heard one hood say.
Paralyzed in fear, she expected to take a bullet until the man's partner said they had to split.
"And then they left," she said. "It was a miracle."
But first the pair grabbed the woman's handbag and stuffed it full of cash, she said.
Wednesday night, Bongard's mom, Debra LaMorte - who runs NYU's $2.6 billion development campaign - remained at her son's Bellevue Hospital bedside.
"I am only focused on two things," LaMorte said, "his making a full recovery, and the NYPD catching the gunmen who shot my son."
Bongard, a former NYU student, and Hinde are expected to survive.
Both men could face criminal charges, police said.

manager at the University of Kentucky's Center on Drug and Alcohol Research has been charged with growing marijuana
LEXINGTON, KY (AP) - Authorities say marijuana plants were found during a fire at the home of a University of Kentucky employee.
The blaze broke out in Lexington on Monday.
The damage was so severe officials have declared the home unsafe.
Investigators believe the fire started in the attic when grow lights overloaded a circuit.
Tracey Ellerbe, 51, was arrested.
She's a manager at the UK's center on drug and alcohol research.
Marijuana distributor gets life in prison
For three years, a Columbus man was a major link to Mexico's drug cartels, distributing tons of marijuana from central Ohio while reaping millions of dollars.
Now, Rafael Hernandez-Carillo will spend the rest of his life in prison.
Hernandez-Carillo, 31, who lived on the Northwest Side, was sentenced yesterday to life in a federal prison by U.S. District Judge James L. Graham.
A jury had convicted him in September 2009 of operating a continuing criminal enterprise.
During the trial, witnesses told of how he was responsible from 2005 through 2008 for bringing in more than 22 tons of marijuana from Sonora, Mexico. The drug was sold in central Ohio and sent to dealers in Dayton, Mansfield and Detroit.
The operation earned more than $10 million a year, according to the federal Drug Enforcement Administration.
As part of his sentencing yesterday, Hernandez-Carillo had to forfeit $263,956 in cash that was seized during the investigation, along with real estate and jewelry.
A task force that included DEA agents and detectives with the Franklin and Madison county sheriff's offices served 32 search warrants during the course of the investigation.
One of the more curious discoveries was a religious statue found in his home; one witness explained that Hernadez-Carillo displayed it because he thought it helped keep law-enforcement officers from his residence.
Hernandez-Carillo was arrested Feb. 27, 2008, at his Curtis Knoll Drive home, where investigators found most of the cash and jewelry valued at about $500,000.
Five others have been convicted for their roles in the drug operation.

Why Did Californians Vote Against Personal Freedom For Adults?
Yeah in 2012 I think it will pass. Most people which is sad, don't really vote during Mid-Term Elections. But the results show we are moving toward the right direction. Still sad as hell today, and I don't even live in CALI. If I did, I probably would feel like I got punched in the stomach, or how Hilary felt when she lost to Obama. Speechless.
Medical Marijuana failed to pass for second time in S Dakota
South Dakota was one of four states that had marijuana related bills on this year's ballot. If it would have passed, the state would have been the 15th state to enact a medical marijuana program.

Jodie Emery hoping people vote 'yes' on Prop 19
Her husband Marc Emery, who was convicted of selling marijuana seeds in the US, is being transferred from Nevada to a California prison this week.
Jodie says it's ironic he'll be serving his five-year federal prison time in a state where pot may be legalized
Gmail founder Paul Buchheit donated $100,000 to the “Yes On Prop 19″ campaign.
Gmail founder Paul Buchheit is down for getting high! Bucheit recently donated $100,000 to the “Yes On Prop 19″ campaign. I get it the G in gmail is for ganja. cool dude.
For those who don’t know what Proposition 19 (or “Prop 19″) is….it will make marijuana legal for adults over the age of 21 in California. Among Buchheit….Facebook co-founder Dustin Moskovitz, Napster founder Sean Parker, Paypal Co-founder Peter Thiel and retired software mogul Steve Silberstein have all made donations in support of the proposition, which will be voted on tomorrow (Nov 2). According to Buchheit, legalizing marijuana will create a more safe and sane drug policy.
“The essential issue is that prohibition not only strips us of our personal liberty, but it also funnels billions of dollars to violent criminal organizations. Prop19 obviously won’t solve all our problems, but I believe that it could be the turning point that leads us towards a more safe and sane drug policy. On this issue, the politicians will follow where the voters lead.
“Prop 19 is popular in many areas, but the support in Silicon Valley is more visible because people here tend to have a greater degree of independence, and are therefore more likely to publicly express their support for what has historically been a controversial issue.”
We always knew Silicon Valley was full of a bunch of nerdy pot heads!! (LOL)

Guess Who Doesn't Want Marijuana Legal
Corrections Corp of America is the company who happens to be -- the biggest owner of private prisons.
As Mike Riggs at The Daily Caller notes, CCA has given money to Democratic candidate Dianne Feinstein, who inexplicably and appallingly opposes Prop 19. Because the legalization of weed result in a lot fewer arrests (not just for pot, but also for real crimes that deserve incarceration), this company has a lot to lose.
Well screw them I say.
