Feb. 8

# Drugs: An officer was dispatched to the 100 block of W. Bell Street where a complaint had been received about an apartment resident smoking marijuana. The California woman told police that she had a sleep disorder and a prescription for medical cannabis. The officer noted that the prescription had expired last year and issued her a municipal summons for possession of marijuana. She said she planned to go back to a normal prescription now that she was living in Wisconsin and was having difficulty finding anyone from whom to buy marijuana.

(Perhaps now she can get a normal prescription for a good FDA approved drug such as Ambien and do a little sleep-cooking, sleep-eating or sleep-driving instead of actually getting the restful night's sleep that cannabis provides. -- GS)
