Marijuana Rules Scandal Leads To Pharmacy Director Termination

7/25/2018

The Oklahoma State Board of Pharmacy leaders met Wednesday to seek and end to a major embarrassment to the agency. In simple motions and without substantive discussion, the board unanimously voted to immediately terminate Chelsea Church's contract and position at the helm of the agency which oversees the many thousands of pharmacists and drug retailers in the state.
Church's attorney is threatening legal actions but would not specify those means. It is not yet clear just how broad the OSBI investigation will be when the final indictments are litigated or settled. The matter is undermining the credibility of Oklahoma's most trusted healthcare agencies just as they are seeking the imposition of new regulatory restrictions to medical cannabis.
The Board of Health is named in a lawsuit by several proponents of medical marijuana. the State Attorney General has also scolded the Board of Health for vastly overstepping their constitutional authority. That board has called an emergency meeting to revisit the matter on August 1st.

Sooner Politics News is a platform, not a media site. All our bloggers get their feeds promoted regardless of content. As soon as We suppress or delete even one posting, we become an endorser of whatever We didn't censor..The publisher doesn't (and could not) logically agree with all the content, so we would not expect any rational reader to agree, either. What we do hope, is that readers will think for themselves, and at least be better informed of the issues, events, and values that our citizen journalists work hard to provide for free.. We automate much of the tasks so that our sources' content gets as much exposure as possible. We encourage constructive discussion & debate. The solution is more free speech, not less.
