Man Faces Jail for Supplying Pot to Elderly

Got milk weed?
Robert Holding, a 72-year-young milkman now faces jail time for supplying 17 elderly people with marijuana. Holding made rounds in his neighborhood and had two routes, a word-of-mouth clientele bases he delivered the all-natural painkiller too, and one that just got milk.
His defense counselor argued the marijuana was only sold to elderly sufferers of arthritis who were of “a certain age,” but the judge did not take kindly to Holding’s intentions of his “serious offenses.”
A BBC news report made it sound as though a custodial sentence, or in other words some time in the hoosegow, when sentencing occurs Feb. 6, 2009.
