Criminal charges re-filed against Lawrence man at center of K2 case
January 6, 2011 - ljworld.com
Jefferson County Attorney Caleb Stegall has re-filed criminal charges against a Lawrence man who owns a botanical plant distribution warehouse that has been at the center of the state's K2 controversy.
Stegall's office announced Thursday morning he has filed 20 counts against Jonathan Sloan, 30, of Lawrence, who owns Bouncing Bear Botanicals in Oskaloosa, following a Kansas Bureau of Investigation probe into the "alleged unlawful distribution of controlled hallucinogenics."
Prosecutors said they also filed 20 counts against Clark Sloan, 51, of Olathe in connection with the investigation. Jefferson County Sheriff's detectives arrested Clark Sloan Thursday morning, Stegall said.
Last April Stegall dropped eight drug charges he had filed months earlier against Jonathan Sloan but said the investigation was still ongoing.
Officials have said the warehouse at Bouncing Bear Botanicals is a supplier for Sacred Journey, 1103 Mass., in downtown Lawrence, and Jonathan Sloan's initial arrest came after federal, state and local authorities conducted a raid last February at the store seizing the K2.
The Kansas Legislature last year passed a law that banned sale or possession of the substances found in K2 after law enforcement agencies complained K2 was a synthetic version of marijuana though it was marketed as incense.
Last year one of Jonathan Sloan's attorneys in the first criminal case, which was dropped, said his client was operating a legitimate botanical plant business at the warehouse north of Lawrence. The attorney said it was one of the country's largest distributors of botanicals.
According to Stegall's office, Jonathan Sloan made a first appearance in Jefferson County District Court Thursday morning on the new criminal charges. According to the sheriff's office, both men posted bond to be released from jail Thursday afternoon.
Jonathan Sloan and another plaintiff has filed a civil lawsuit in federal court against a business in Oregon and one in Nevada alleging they have infringed Bouncing Bear Botanicals' trademark on the name "K2" for its incense products.

That's just malicious prosecution. That'll never fly. I hope the DA loses the case and Sloan sues the shit out of him.

Ask my father about ks law enforcement, they break more laws trying to catch a crimanal then the crimanal ever broke

Where am I at?
 
In a free society, the presumption must be that people can smoke, snort, eat or inject whatever they wish, so long as they do not harm others. The burden of proof should rest on those who would ban marijuana, not those who want it legal. That burden has never been met.

Everything makes a lot more sense now. I did not know BBB was so deeply involved with K2.

It is their brand plus they have many other products out there available on the wholesale market. My friend has a few headshops and sells a bunch of their stuff.

Damn religious-retard states. Corruption is easy in places where most people see themselves as morally superior.

I had no idea either. I don't really like how K2/3/4/etc. operates, although they don't deserve this. Still, you would think after BBB he would say fuck the grey areas and try to make a career that is less prosecution intensive. I can't help but feel he went and whacked the hornets' nest, and after already being stung doing it once.

There's no way they'll get convicted on any k2-related charges; it wasn't illegal at the time (though the original seizure was legitimately within the scope of the FDA's power). If I was in their shoes, i'd be more concerned about DMT and mescaline charges.

They probably don't even intend on convicting the guy. Jerks like this did the same thing to a bunch of artists/bands during the 80s. They're just trying to rape his wallet to "send a message".
What that message is, I don't know. Apparently they think that by busting BBB nobody is ever going to try and use the internet to sell dr00gz again.
I love my fed-ex guy cause he's a drug dealer and he doesn't even know it...and he's always on time.
