MALAGA, N.M. — Agents with a regional drug task force raided Leonard French's home in southeastern New Mexico and seized several marijuana plants, sparking the latest debate over the state's new medical marijuana law.
Wheelchair-bound and suffering from chronic pain and muscle spasms, French says he's certified by the state Health Department to possess and smoke marijuana. The 44-year-old lost the use of his legs following a motorcycle crash about 20 years ago.
