Charlie Lynch had a medical marijuana dispensary in Morro Bay, on the coast of California. Though he had yet to repay the loan he had taken out to open his business, and was working 6 days a week against the public opposition of the Morro Bay sheriff's department, he liked his job. He stopped liking his job when the DEA raided his home and arrested him for selling marijuana, a federal crime punishable with years of prison time. Last night, ABC's 20/20 with John Stossel featured Charlie Lynch in a report on marijuana advocacy.
