In some ways, a Sunday evening arrest fits this pattern. For one thing, it took place in Broomfield. For another, a juvenile was found on site, resulting in a child abuse charge against Mitchell Good, 51, in addition to a marijuana cultivation count. Surprisingly, however, the Broomfield Police Department explicitly states that the 39 plants seized were not reported to be medical marijuana. Strange: Did you know the stuff could still be used recreationally?
