Christopher M. Glew began focusing on drug and marijuana-related offenses in 2002. He is a frequent writer and student of drug law and policy. Many new changes have affected the law in this area including Penal Code Section 11362.5. This is the medical marijuana provision. This area is the subject of much controversy and debate. Many citizens are still being wrongly detained and charged for non-crimes related to medical marijuana. We focus our efforts in this area on getting the client treatment and not incarceration.
