Idaho still holding million-dollar hemp cargo, as trial nears for trucker; link to full Idaho Press story

Though a commercial truck seized in what ISP at the time described as its largest marijuana bust ever -- and which turned out to be a load of industrial hemp -- has been returned to its owner, the state has refused to return the more than $1 million in hemp that was the truck's cargo, writes Idaho Press reporter Tommy Simmons. And a federal appeals court has ruled that Idaho state courts are the ones that must rule on the fate of the cargo.
