Emeryville Pays $15K For Illegal Pot Plant Seizure April 13, 2006 - cbs5.com
(BCN) EMERYVILLE The city paid $15,000 to a medical marijuana user to settle a lawsuit accusing police of illegally seizing his pot plants, which were later stolen.
James Blair of Emeryville said police refused to return 30 full-sized marijuana plants and equipment, including lamps and air filters that were seized in a December 2003 raid.
Prosecutors dropped criminal charges against Blair, who uses marijuana legally to alleviate neck pain.
In early 2004, thieves broke into an evidence storage cage and stole $35,000 worth of evidence from a number of cases, including some of Blair's plants.
Blair said it was ironic that the same plants that were taken from a legal user of the drug fell into the wrong hands.

Well, if you're implying that the cops ended up smoking the weed, that's a perfectly reasonable assumption. And it's still theft.
