MEDFORD, OR — The owners of a Southern Oregon medical marijuana dispensary have agreed to a plea deal. The plea bargain means most of the charges against Lori and Leland Duckworth have been dropped. A Jackson County Circuit Court judge dismissed dozens of racketeering and money-laundering charges against the Duckworths.
Both were found guilty of a single count of felony delivery of marijuana and were sentenced to 11 months’ probation. The judge stressed that while the Duckworths can use medical marijuana, they cannot grow it for others. The couple’s marijuana dispensary was raided May 2013.
