Schoharie goes skyward for marijuana

Sep 08, 2013 12:02 am

Bill Lambdin at WNYT reports that some of the helicopters one sees in the skies in September locally, are searching for illegal marijuana fields. Several media crews joined Schoharie County Sheriff Tony Desmond for his helicopter trip Wed., Sept. 4, to find 21 marijuana plants in Esperance, and spot another 50 plants that the sheriff would get to another day. The Marijuana Policy Project reports that the New York Assembly passed two bills in 2013. One would legalize medical marijuana, and the other bill would fix the "public view" loophole in New York's decriminalization law. The New York Senate adjourned without taking up either bill.
