Marijuana Debate Continues In Defiance Co

The subject of medical marijuana was brought up during this week’s meeting of the Hicksville Village Council. The Defiance County Drug-Free Coalition recently approached Mayor Diane Collins, asking for the village’s support in fighting the establishment of a medical marijuana facility in town. This sparked a lengthy conversation about the pros and cons of medical marijuana use, with topics ranging from its killing pain associated with disease to an increase of crime associated with the facilities.
