Disclosure: WeedPress publisher Jason Karimi, who wrote this article, is a party to pending litigation with Melissa Mentele, co-founder and chief operations officer of 605 Cannabis, who is discussed in this article. That litigation, Mentele v. Karimi, No. 49TPO26-000343, is on appeal to the South Dakota Supreme Court and is not the subject of this article. Readers should weigh his interest accordingly. Corrections: weedpressnewstips@gmail.com.
Details soon. But the business arm of the far-left radical New Approach South Dakota lobbyist loser group has gotten caught being dishonest in the business world and is losing an estimated 50% of statewide product sales distribution channels. This group is too stupid to realize they’re hurting marijuana advocacy politically in South Dakota with their egos and crazy statements. So, maybe the market correction rejecting these people, hurting patients to make up for their 6 figure debt and pending house foreclosure cases, will stop them hurting patient reputations and credibility at the Pierre capitol.
Never trust a liar. If politically these people still survive the only ones to blame are those who didn’t speak up – or pull 605 Cannabis products from the shelves as is happening this week.
Deport the business frauds at 605 Cannabis collusion with New Approach South Dakota, before they destroy the fragile patient program.
