Investigative journalist Benn Swann reports that medical marijuana activist Shona Banda’s son has been taken from his mother after he defended the use of medical marijuana in a drug education class.
Banda has Crohn’s disease, which causes the immune system to attack healthy bacteria in the gastrointestinal tract, leading to chronic inflammation. She says she has used cannabis oil to successfully treat the disease. You can watch her video interview with Benn Swann here.
When she and her son moved from Colorado to Kansas, her medical use of cannabis oil became illegal under state law. She continued to advocate for the treatment while encouraging others to speak out as well.
