It seems that bad mama jama’s from the East Coast are traveling across the country with the sole intention of using the Golden State’s legal marijuana status to run a racket of extreme thievery. This is not the first time legal marijuana has been associated with an increase in violent crime. "We're seeing real violence around [legal marijuana]," Sessions told reporters during a 2017 press briefing. "Experts are telling me there's more violence around marijuana than one would think and there's big money involved.”But is this claim real? Crimes, including robberies, murders and aggravate assaults have all dropped by around 13 percent in areas close to medical marijuana states.
