Source: Orange County Register News Contact: Pubdate: Thursday, 07 Aug 1997 Woody Harrelson ready to post bail in mansion pot case Hemp activist and actor Woody Harrelson has agreed to post the $500,000 bail for a man accused of growing thousands of marijuana plants in a BelAir mansion, a spokesman said Wednesday. Harrelson sent a representative to federal court in Los Angeles to post bond for Todd McCormick, said Pete McWilliams, publisher of a book McCormick was writing. The representative reportedly was told that prosecutors must speak with Harrelson first. McCormick, 27, said the 4,100plus marijuana plants in his rented mansion were for medical use. On another front, San Francisco Cannabis Buyers Club founder Dennis Peron says he plans to run for California governor as a Republican, challenging state Attorney General Dan Lungren. Peron was a driving force behind the passage of Proposition 215, which legalizes pot for medical purposes.
