Today's Rocky:
Allysan Isaac, 24, was held nearly a year in work release for something that a judge said Tuesday was not even illegal."You were incarcerated for a case that was not a crime," said Mesa County District Judge Brian Flynn, who presided over the case.
Flynn, the prosecutor and Isaac's defense attorney were unaware last year that the offense she was charged with was not a violation of the law.
No one had noticed that a prescription drug found in Isaac's possession, an anti-anxiety medication called Buspirone, is not a controlled substance.
This is the sort of thing that happens when millions of citizens are prosecuted for drug crimes. Things like justice and accuracy got lost in the bureaucracy.
Legalize, legalize, and then tax, tax. That there are so many who argue against this logic just kills me.
