WOMAN RUNNING MEDICAL POT CLUB BUSTED
Cops Raid Grandmother's Home; Push Renewed For Legal Drug Use
A 65-year-old Elmira grandmother faces criminal charges after police raided
her apartment and confiscated three pounds of pot she was planning to
distribute through her medical marijuana buyers club.
Sherrie D. Wilkie, who suffers chronic pain from arthritis and other
ailments, said she started the buyers club in 1998 and began making regular
trips to New York City to buy pot for about a dozen other Twin Tiers
residents who use marijuana as medicine.
