During this hearing, the prosecutor in the case, Beth Hand, notified the defense that her office would consider levying criminal charges against the doctor based on his testimony before the court. The charges, she said, could come from his testimony at the hearing, as well as his prior testimony at the evidentiary hearing regarding his involvement in certifying the two patients, Redden and Clark. In what turned out to be one of the longest medical marijuana cases since the act was put into place in 2008, the Prosecutor’s actions on this day added to an already bizarre and outrageous series of events.
