The new law will essentially\u003ca href=\"http://chrisconrad.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/Prop64chart.pdf\"> eliminate criminal penalties for adult personal use of marijuana\u003c/a>, and those changes would start immediately.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The penalty reduction components take effect at midnight on November [9],” says Lyman. “Anybody who’s currently in jail or prison or on parole or probation for a marijuana-related offense will be able to petition to have their sentence reduced … and so that process might take a few months,” says Lyman.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you’re carrying more than the allowed amounts of marijuana you can still be fined. And those who are operating commercially without a license can be fined. Repeat offenders could get jail time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It will still be a felony to sell to minors, as well as to attempt the \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2015/09/26/when-weed-explodes-and-why-you-shouldnt-try-this-at-home/\">dangerous process of home butane extraction\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>The black market won’t go away overnight\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>New regulations will likely make marijuana more expensive and pot will still be illegal for many of California’s neighbors. The result: The black market will likely continue to thrive.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think that the biggest way in which the whole situation is out of touch with reality is pretending that states can do what they want without affecting other states,” says Jon Caulkins a professor of public policy at Carnegie Mellon University and author of “Marijuana Legalization: What Everyone Needs to Know.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“California supplies much of the cannabis for the rest of the country. And as its production costs have been declining and presumably will decline further after legalization, that reduces prices and increases use all around the country. It’s important to recognize just how compact marijuana is. A year’s supply for a typical daily user weighs about as much as one 20-ounce can of beer. It’s very hard to keep this stuff from flowing across borders.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So, don’t count on Prop. 64 to do much to eliminate the black market, though it could make it much less attractive to risk arrest for cheaper weed, at least to Californians.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>… Neither will drug-related crime\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Don’t expect crime to drop either.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When the nation has legalized [pot], as long as you don’t have super high taxes or other restrictions, then … legal companies will out-compete criminals. Farmers are better at farming cannabis than crooks are,” says Caulkins. “But no, that won’t really do much about drug-related crime because most drug-related crime is associated with cocaine, crack, heroin and meth, not marijuana.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“So, nothing you do with marijuana is going to really solve most of the drug-related crime.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11076615\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11076615\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2016/09/135350-full-800x534.jpg\" alt=\"Coalinga Police Chief Michael Salvador has been a police officer for 30 years.

By 2020 they estimate that it could be worth nearly $4 billion.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Big Marijuana could be the next Big Tobacco\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>The rise of legal recreational marijuana could bring in big players and mean the weaponization of marketing tactics to promote marijuana use.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think that you’re going to see aggressive marketing by companies who know that their profits depend on selling to people who are daily or near-daily users,” says Caulkins.

The new law will essentially\u003ca href=\"http://chrisconrad.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/Prop64chart.pdf\"> eliminate criminal penalties for adult personal use of marijuana\u003c/a>, and those changes would start immediately.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The penalty reduction components take effect at midnight on November [9],” says Lyman. “Anybody who’s currently in jail or prison or on parole or probation for a marijuana-related offense will be able to petition to have their sentence reduced … and so that process might take a few months,” says Lyman.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you’re carrying more than the allowed amounts of marijuana you can still be fined. And those who are operating commercially without a license can be fined. Repeat offenders could get jail time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It will still be a felony to sell to minors, as well as to attempt the \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2015/09/26/when-weed-explodes-and-why-you-shouldnt-try-this-at-home/\">dangerous process of home butane extraction\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>The black market won’t go away overnight\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>New regulations will likely make marijuana more expensive and pot will still be illegal for many of California’s neighbors. The result: The black market will likely continue to thrive.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think that the biggest way in which the whole situation is out of touch with reality is pretending that states can do what they want without affecting other states,” says Jon Caulkins a professor of public policy at Carnegie Mellon University and author of “Marijuana Legalization: What Everyone Needs to Know.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“California supplies much of the cannabis for the rest of the country. And as its production costs have been declining and presumably will decline further after legalization, that reduces prices and increases use all around the country. It’s important to recognize just how compact marijuana is. A year’s supply for a typical daily user weighs about as much as one 20-ounce can of beer. It’s very hard to keep this stuff from flowing across borders.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So, don’t count on Prop. 64 to do much to eliminate the black market, though it could make it much less attractive to risk arrest for cheaper weed, at least to Californians.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>… Neither will drug-related crime\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Don’t expect crime to drop either.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When the nation has legalized [pot], as long as you don’t have super high taxes or other restrictions, then … legal companies will out-compete criminals. Farmers are better at farming cannabis than crooks are,” says Caulkins. “But no, that won’t really do much about drug-related crime because most drug-related crime is associated with cocaine, crack, heroin and meth, not marijuana.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“So, nothing you do with marijuana is going to really solve most of the drug-related crime.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11076615\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11076615\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2016/09/135350-full-800x534.jpg\" alt=\"Coalinga Police Chief Michael Salvador has been a police officer for 30 years.

The lifelong Mendocino resident owns a two-bedroom house tucked under the redwood trees in the town of Willits. He runs a logging and construction company, and in October he and his 20-year-old fiancee, Ashley Baldwin, welcomed a baby girl. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But their life will soon change. Bolton will be heading to jail for six months, starting in January. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One afternoon in October, the two walked around their backyard, checking on their raised garden beds of grapes, tomatoes and peppers, all starting to get a little moldy from the fall rains that have just begun.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But in 2014, the county’s marijuana eradication task force busted the place and found about 70 marijuana plants growing in these same beds. They also found 15 plants in the garage, around 20 pounds of dried pot, five guns and more than $100,000 cash in Bolton’s safe.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bolton was arrested.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">His lawyer approached him with the district attorney’s offer to pay around $20,000 in restitution and plead to a misdemeanor.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">“I thought it was more extortion than anything,” Bolton said. “You know they want to take my money for something I didn't do, and then they want to get you for a felony crime, but they want to let you walk for a misdemeanor to pay him money.” \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Months before the raid, Bolton said, he’d leased the house to a parolee named James Horn. According to Bolton, Horn was growing marijuana without his knowledge.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bolton opted not to take the deal.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Instead, he went to trial and got a hung jury. The district attorney then charged him with perjury in a connected civil case and moved to retry the criminal case. Bolton said at that point he was out of money to fight and was struggling to get partial custody of his 4-year-old son with a former partner.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He pleaded no contest to maintaining a property for unlawful sale of marijuana.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11155298\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-11155298\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2016/11/RS21698_File_003-qut-800x600.jpg\" alt=\"Richard Bolton, 34, and his fiancée Ashley Baldwin, 20, in the garden where law enforcement found around 70 marijuana plants.\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2016/11/RS21698_File_003-qut-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2016/11/RS21698_File_003-qut-160x120.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2016/11/RS21698_File_003-qut-1020x765.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2016/11/RS21698_File_003-qut.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2016/11/RS21698_File_003-qut-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2016/11/RS21698_File_003-qut-960x720.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2016/11/RS21698_File_003-qut-240x180.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2016/11/RS21698_File_003-qut-375x281.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2016/11/RS21698_File_003-qut-520x390.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Richard Bolton, 34, and his fiancee, Ashley Baldwin, 20, in the garden where law enforcement found around 70 marijuana plants. \u003ccite>(Sukey Lewis/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>“In three years with good behavior, then I get the felony dropped to misdemeanor.

They also found 15 plants in the garage, around 20 pounds of dried pot, five guns and more than $100,000 cash in Bolton’s safe.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bolton was arrested.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">His lawyer approached him with the district attorney’s offer to pay around $20,000 in restitution and plead to a misdemeanor.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">“I thought it was more extortion than anything,” Bolton said. “You know they want to take my money for something I didn't do, and then they want to get you for a felony crime, but they want to let you walk for a misdemeanor to pay him money.” \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Months before the raid, Bolton said, he’d leased the house to a parolee named James Horn.
