(SALEM, Ore.) - Three Salem men were arrested Thursday at 8:30 PM for charges related to marijuana sales and possession. One of the three is a legal Medical Marijuana grower and provider, but police say amounts recovered were far in excess of legal limits under Oregon's Medical Marijuana Program.
Salem Police Lt. Jim Anglemier says Salem Drug Activity Response Team detectives and members of the Street Crimes Unit were conducting a drug investigation, when they learned of a medical marijuana provider selling marijuana to a person who was not a legal marijuana patient.
Police the provider, 31-year old Charles Hatfield who lives in the 5000 block of Lone Oak Road SE in Salem, delivered a small quantity of marijuana. Hatfield was taken into custody without incident, Anglemier said.
"With consent, a search of Hatfield's residence was conducted. Seized was over 6 pounds of marijuana valued at $17,000; 17 grams of psilocybin mushrooms valued at $150; 25 mature and immature marijuana plants; $2600 cash, 4 firearms and marijuana growing equipment.
Anglemier says Hatfield is a medical marijuana provider for two people. That means he is authorized to have 48 ounces of dried marijuana and a combination of mature and immature marijuana plants. Salem Police did not specify whether or not the guns located at the residence have any criminal implications.
Two other people who live at the residence, 24-year old James Strom and 34-year old Kirk Grable, were also taken into custody. All three suspects were arrested and booked into the Marion County Jail on the below listed charges.
Charles Duane Hatfield faces charges of: *Distribution of a Controlled Substance- Marijuana *Distribution of a Cont. Sub.- Marijuana-within a 1000ft of a school *Manufacture of a Cont. Sub.- Marijuana* *Unlawful Possession of Marijuana *Possession of Less than 1 oz. of Marijuana *Possession of a Cont. Sub.- Psilocybin Mushrooms *Maintaing a Place where drugs are used or sold
His bail is set at $145,000 James Allen Strom faces charges of: *Unlawful Manufacture of a Cont. Sub. -Marijuana *Unlawful Possession of a Cont. Sub.-Marijuana *Maintaining a Place where drugs are used or sold
His bail is set at $65,000
Kirk Lewis Grable faces charges of *Unlawful Delivery of a Cont. Sub.-Marijuana*Unlawful Possession of a Cont. Sub. -Marijuana*Maintaining a Place where drugs are used or sold
His bail is set at $45,000
* Oregon law refers to marijuana growing as "manufacturing," though neither Webster's Dictionary or Wikipedia define growing a plant as manufacturing.

150 for 17 grams of caps? Tha's like 9 bucks a gram, or 30$ an eighth.
6 pounds of good nugs @ 300 an ounce: 28800 bones. They said 17000. 178 an ounce. Not bad really.
Charge:Possession of Less than 1 oz. of Marijuana? Isn't that annulled for having more than 1 oz? They technically could bust you 27 times for that right?
Manufacturing (from Latin manu factura, "making by hand") is the use of tools and labor to make things for use or sale. The term may refer to a vast range of human activity, from handicraft to high tech, but is most commonly applied to industrial production, in which raw materials are transformed into finished goods on a large scale.
You don't make weed by hand, you make a hydroponics system. That's not illegal. The plant grows of it's own accord, you just supply the enviroment.
"Modern manufacturing includes all intermediate processes required for the production and integration of a product's components. Some industries, such as semiconductor and steel manufacturers use the term fabrication instead" - This means they were fabricating buds.
let's go manufacture some corn let's go manufacture some orchids let's go manufacture some children let's go manufacture some watermelon chickens
see, it doesn't work on living things.

I don't think the pricing is an issue in this article, neither is the manufacture charge, the man has a license to have 48 ounces and he had 168, and he was selling to people he didn't know. honestly the only shit thing about this is the within 1000ft of a school charge. Abusing the medicinal programs are what is going to get the feds to actually crack down on this, not cool.
