San Diego Americans for Safe Access
For Immediate Release: March 16, 2014
Ronnie Chang, a state legal medical marijuana patient and a directing member of Club One Collective/Extreme Holistic Care in San Marcos, will be sentenced on money laundering charges in San Diego’s Edward J. Schwartz Courthouse, Monday, March 17, 2014 at 9:00AM.
“This case has been plagued with vindictiveness from U.S. Attorney Laura Duffy’s office” said Marcus Boyd of San Diego Americans for Safe Access.
The two parties in the case have hammered out a plea for Mr. Chang and the terms along with sentencing recommendations will be presented to Judge Michael M. Anello tomorrow. Mr. Chang has already spent over a year in custody awaiting trial but was released last fall when a “time served” arrangement was negotiated.
There has been an informal gag order in place and Ronnie Chang’s attorney, Michael J. McCabe said last week. “After sentencing I will be free to speak about this case and I have a lot to say.”

WHEN: Monday, March 17, 2014, 9:00AM
WHERE: Dept. 5, on the 3rd Flr. of the San Diego Federal Courthouse, 940 Front St. at Broadway, San Diego, CA, 92101
Please plan to attend at 9AM in courtroom five on the third floor of the Edward J. Schwartz Courthouse – 940 Front St. San Diego, CA 92101. Mr. McCabe will be available following court proceedings for questions.
