Please enjoy my exposé about Ben Cohen and his new “weed” company. It’s not actually a weed company. It’s a packaging company that puts weed inside its packages and gets to make money on weed sales while avoiding all the FBI background checks and scrutiny that everyone else has to go through. In here you will find ties to the Parabola Center, a bunch of big MSOs, sketchy businesses like Hawthorne, and a number of people with ties to the Bernie Sander/Joe Biden campaigns. We’ve got a former Senator in there. A famous rapper. All kinds of fun stuff. And I’m still working on untangling more of this web as we speak. It’s a big one. Shaleen Title and her friend Jesce Horton are right in the middle of it. ✌️*
*I did f*ck up one fact. Jesce Horton’s company LOWD was only in one state when I put this together. I called that company an MSO which was an incorrect characterization. However Jesce is all over the map and just started a new brand with NBA star Carmelo Anthony so…I don’t think it’s unfair to characterize Jesce as someone who is operating in multiple states.**
**It’s also strange to me that this company is registered as non-profit in Vermont and for-profit in the other states in which they operate. Still not sure why they’ve structured it like that.
