In a desolate stretch of California desert off U.S. Highway 395, Franklin Noel Bonilla made one last desperate plea to save his life.
“I’ve been shot,” he told 911 dispatchers in Spanish, according to authorities. “I don’t know where I am.”
Officials tracked the coordinates of the phone call to a dirt road in the remote desert community of El Mirage, about 50 miles northeast of Los Angeles.
There they made a horrific discovery: six men with gunshot wounds, four of them with severe burns, and two abandoned vehicles, one of which was pocked with bullet holes.
Authorities think the massacre was the result of a dispute over illegal marijuana, and it marks the latest act of shocking violence in isolated areas of California where a black market for pot has flourished.
The death toll, which has included shootings and dismemberments, has alarmed law enforcement officials and comes as illegal grow operations have spread in inland desert communities across Southern California.

Legal Weed, Broken Promises: A Times series on the fallout of legal pot in California
May 5, 2023
Hundreds of pot farms have cropped up across the desert region, bringing crime and fear with them, according to residents and law enforcement officials.

In the last year alone, the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department said its marijuana enforcement teams served 411 search warrants for illegal marijuana grows. They found 14 “honey oil” labs, 655,000 plants and 74,000 pounds of processed marijuana. Eleven search warrants were executed in the immediate area where the slayings took place.
“The plague is the black market of marijuana and certainly cartel activity, and a number of victims are out there,” Sheriff Shannon Dicus said.
A Times investigation last year uncovered the proliferation of illegal cannabis in California after the passage of Proposition 64, which legalized the recreational use of marijuana in the state. Although the 2016 legislation promised voters that the legal market would hobble illegal trade and its associated violence, there has been a surge in the black market.
Growers at illegal sites can avoid the expensive licensing fees and regulatory costs associated with legal farms. Violence is a looming threat at these operations, authorities said, because illicit harvests yield huge quantities of cash to operators who can’t use banks or law enforcement for protection.

‘$250,000 cash in a brown paper bag.’ How legal weed unleashed corruption in California
Sept. 15, 2022
In 2020, six people were found shot to death at a property in Aguanga, a small community in rural Riverside County east of Temecula. A seventh victim later died at a nearby hospital.
The victims were immigrants from Laos and were found at a large-scale illegal marijuana cultivation and processing site — a “major organized-crime type of an operation,” Riverside County Sheriff Chad Bianco said at the time.
It is hard to determine the number of homicides tied to illegal pot farms. But a Times review in 2021 found at least five Mojave Desert killings in 2020 and 2021 that investigators said were connected to pot farming.
Black markets can thrive despite the legalization of the product, according to Peter Hanink, a professor of sociology and criminology at Cal Poly Pomona.
“It doesn’t matter what the product is,” he said. “If there’s sufficient demand and the thing is valuable enough, you’ll get a black market.”

Marijuana dispute led to desert massacre in San Bernardino that killed 6
Jan. 30, 2024
Cartels in Mexico have traditionally carved up and delegated certain areas to different groups so they don’t have to kill each other to make money, Hanink said. At the beginning of a black market, when there’s more instability, there could be violence that results from regional groups competing over the same area. Hanink said the El Mirage slayings could’ve been between competing groups, based on the grisly nature of the crime.
“The sheer violence and the extent of the violence — burning the bodies and how extreme it was, it’s the sort of thing that suggests someone is trying to send a message,” he said.
Hanink stressed, however, that he doesn’t believe Mexican cartels were involved in the San Bernardino County killings, because the FBI, Homeland Security and the Drug Enforcement Administration haven’t gotten involved. The fact that the investigation involves only the Sheriff’s Department and the California Highway Patrol indicates it’s a local California matter, he said.
“Mexican cartels tend to stay local to Mexico, and they very rarely try to do things within the U.S. because they don’t want to involve U.S. law enforcement,” he said. “If you have executions being ordered by parties in other countries, that becomes a case of U.S. security interest.”
Bill Bodner, former special agent in charge of the DEA’s Los Angeles Field Division, agreed that while Mexican cartels have previously been involved in the illegal marijuana business, most have shifted to synthetic drugs, such as methamphetamine and fentanyl.
Illegal marijuana trade has also become unprofitable for the cartels, he said, because of the risk of getting shipments seized at the U.S.-Mexico border.
Bodner said disputes at illegal grows usually involve the theft of product or cash and, in some cases, workers seeking to get paid.
“Don’t forget, it’s a criminal business run by criminals, so they’re going to pay as little as they can,” Bodner said.
The marijuana black market has thrived in California in recent years, as growers try to circumvent taxes, feeding an unlicensed, unregulated industry and, at times, making its way into legitimate dispensaries as well,Bodner said.
In 2019, an audit by the United Cannabis Business Assn. found nearly 3,000 unlicensed dispensaries and delivery services were operating in the state — at least three times more than legal, regulated businesses.
Four years later, Bodner believes the black market has only gotten larger in California.
“The number of unlicensed grows, conservatively, has doubled,” he said.

At first, deputies saw cardboard, rubber tires, broken bottles and bullet casings littering the ground when they drove out to the remote El Mirage location on Jan. 23. There were two abandoned vehicles nearby, one of them riddled with bullet holes. Then they found the bodies.
Four of the six victims have been identified: Franklin Noel Bonilla, 22; Baldemar Mondragon-Albarran, 34; and Kevin Dariel Bonilla, 25. The fourth is a 45-year-old man, whose identity is being withheld pending notification of next of kin. They were all Latino, possibly Honduran nationals, and lived in Adelanto and Hesperia, authorities said.

After the brutal slayings, the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department served search warrants in Apple Valley, Adelanto and the Los Angeles County area of Piñon Hills. They arrested five men in connection with the killings — Toniel Baez-Duarte, 34; Mateo Baez-Duarte, 24; Jose Nicolas Hernandez-Sarabia, 33; Jose Gregorio Hernandez-Sarabia, 34, and Jose Manuel Burgos Parra, 26.
Authorities say they believe everyone involved in the killings has been arrested and there are no outstanding suspects.
When serving warrants, detectives recovered eight firearms. They will undergo forensic examinations to determine whether any were used in the slayings, said Michael Warrick, a sergeant in the specialized investigation division of the Sheriff’s Department.
Warrick wouldn’t comment on whether the slayings were cartel-related but said there were “certain things at the scene that show a level of violence that obviously raises some interesting questions for us.”

Why drug stores lock up their products behind plastic cases ...
The reason why stores resort to locking up these products is simple: to prevent shoplifting. But these decisions are far more nuanced and fraught for stores than you may think. Companies must walk a delicate line between protecting their inventory and creating stores that customers don't dread visiting.Jul 30, 2022

Nobody has to smell what I am drinking unlike joints, prerolls and vapes. Cali sober is coming to Canada. I was in the dispensary just before Christmas and heard a dude telling staff that he got so drunk last year he went nutz and wrecked stuff. He was not going to have that happen this year so he was buying a bunch of weed drinks and party that way instead this year.

MJ sales suck nationwide
Another major marijuana brand exits Colorado market
By MJBizDaily Staff
December 19, 2023 - Updated December 19, 2023
Ranks of women, minority cannabis execs rebound to pre-pandemic levels, according to the latest data from the MJBiz Diversity, Inclusion and Equity Report. Get your copy here.
Coda Signature, an early entrant in Colorado’s regulated marijuana market, is the latest brand to cut business operations in the state.
The homegrown, award-winning cannabis edibles maker will concentrate efforts in other markets after facing escalating challenges in Colorado since the COVID-19 pandemic, according to Denver alt-weekly Westword.
ADVERTISEMENT
“Colorado’s cannabis market declines in recent years combined with the significant oversupply has caused the company to make the difficult decision to close operations in Colorado,” Coda Signature told Westword in a statement.
Only five years earlier, Coda Signature laid out an expansion plan to become a national cannabis brand built on its success in the edibles segment with its line of truffles, candy bars, single-serve treats and other products.
But marijuana sales in Colorado have fallen drastically since 2021.
In February, for example, medical and recreational marijuana retailers in the state posted their lowest sales in four years.
Then, in April, Colorado’s regulated cannabis industry suffered its “worst 4/20 in five years,” according to the Marijuana Industry Group.
Lingering challenges have prompted several marijuana companies to reduce or eliminate operations altogether in the nation’s most established adult-use market, which opened on Jan. 1, 2014.
In January, multistate operator Curaleaf Holdings said it was shuttering its operations in Colorado as well as California and Oregon, reducing its payroll by 10%.

"Stupid is as stupid does" is a saying that means that someone's actions or behavior can reveal their intelligence or lack thereof. The phrase suggests that it is not enough to simply appear or claim to be intelligent – one's actions and decisions must also reflect intelligence in order for it to be genuine.

MariMed Commences Operations of Processing Facility in Mt. Vernon, Illinois
MT NEWSWIRES
2:03 PM ET 12/04/2023
02:03 PM EST, 12/04/2023 (MT Newswires) -- MariMed Inc. (MRMD) , a multi-state cannabis operator in the US, said Monday it has begun manufacturing and processing cannabis products in its new processing kitchen in Mt. Vernon, Illinois. After construction and regulatory delays, the company expects its products will be available at dispensaries in Illinois in time for the holidays. These include MariMed's (MRMD) five Thrive Dispensary-branded retail locations in the state.
"We are thrilled that after such a long delay, we are finally commencing operations of our Mt. Vernon processing facility, which officially makes MariMed (MRMD) a vertically integrated cannabis operator in Illinois," said CEO Jon Levine. "It is an important part of our strategic growth plan to increase our revenue and profitability by expanding in the high-growth states in which we currently operate. Illinois regulations allow operators to own up to 10 dispensaries and three craft licenses, and we intend to continue expanding in the state."
The state-of-the-art processing facility contains an extraction lab to produce concentrates, and a production kitchen for the manufacture of edibles and other derivative products. The cultivation facility is currently under construction in the same facility and is expected to be completed in 2024.
"Being vertical in Illinois will improve our retail gross margins and allow us to wholesale our branded products to other dispensaries," added Ryan Crandall, Chief Revenue Officer. "Our wholesale operations are already ramping and have secured early purchase commitments from retailers throughout the state. The opening of the processing facility, in addition to the opening of our cultivation facility in 2024, are important steps in the execution of MariMed's (MRMD) strategic growth plan."

Isn’t that what we’re supposed to do after the stocks jump on political news?
The next is MariMed (MRMD). CNBC’s Tim Seymour called this company the best cannabis stock you’ve never heard of, and I agree. In 2023, the company is expected to generate more than $150 million in sales and $36 million in Ebitda. That’s an Ebitda margin of 23%. As a comparison, the entire S&P 500 is expected to generate a 20% margin this year. https://www.forbes.com/sites/investor-hub/article/cannabis-stocks-what-you-need-to-know/?sh=7b207e66355a

(MRMD) (“MariMed” or the “Company”) (CSE: MRMD) , a leading multi-state cannabis operator focused on improving lives every day, today announced the opening of an adult-use Thrive dispensary in Casey, Illinois. This opening marks the fifth operational dispensary in Illinois, and the 12th dispensary that MariMed (MRMD) owns or manages across five states.
The dispensary, which is the first in Clark county, is located at 912 N. State Highway 49 in Casey, Illinois. Casey is in eastern Illinois at the intersection of state Highway 49 and U.S. Interstate 70. Located just 30 miles from the Indiana border, Thrive Casey is the closest dispensary to that state, which has not passed a legal marijuana program.
Casey is known as the Big Things Small Town, and is home to nearly 30 “World’s Largest” and “Big Things,” including 12 that are included in the Guiness Book of World Records. Among the records are the World’s Largest Rocking Chair and Mailbox.
“We have high hopes for the Thrive dispensary location in Casey,” said Rosie Naumovski, MariMed’s General Manager for the state of Illinois. “It’s ideally located just off Interstate 70, close to the Indiana border and with no other dispensaries within a 30-minute drive. We are also excited to contribute to Casey’s culture as the home of big things. After all, MariMed (MRMD) is the company that created the World’s Largest Pot Brownie!”
With the full support and encouragement of Illinois regulators and Casey’s city council, the new Thrive dispensary will temporarily operate in a converted mobile bank until construction of the permanent dispensary is completed. The Thrive dispensary in Casey will be managed by MariMed (MRMD) under a Managed Servies Agreement until the license transfer is approved by the Illinois Cannabis Control Office. The Company also operates Thrive dispensary locations in Anna, Harrisburg, Metropolis, and Mount Vernon, Illinois.
In addition to its retail operations, MariMed (MRMD) continues to build its processing and cultivation facility in Mt. Vernon, Illinois. The processing facility is expected to open during the fourth quarter, at which time MariMed (MRMD) will produce its award-winning edibles and sell them through its retail and new wholesale channels. The Company expects the cultivation facility construction to be completed in early 2024.

Compared to the swag in dispensaries Amsterdam is fantastic.
You just did not know where to go.

Looks like the mini bull run is over…The DEA is going to take as long as they can to make a decision about rescheduling, so I assume all these cannabis stocks will slip back to their 52wk lows
I have my sources, you have yours.
Wrong. Amsterdam isnt special
That’s not even true
