FARM SAFEGUARD SOUGHT FOR MEDICAL MARIJUANA 

SANTA CRUZ (AP)- Local officials filed a lawsuit yesterday demanding that
federal agents stay away from a farm growing marijuana for sick and dying
people. The suit follows a Drug Enforcement Administration raid in September
on a small marijuana farm about 15 miles north of Santa Cruz. Agents
uprooted about 165 plants and arrested the owners, Valerie and Michael
Corral. The raid outraged residents of Santa Cruz, where police work closely
with medical marijuana users and growers. (AP)
