Judge suspends sentence for Australian man who grew cannabis to cure cancer.
After losing 3 loved ones who underwent radiation chemotherapy, A man in Australia decided to try using cannabinoids to heal his mother's cancer.
According the the judge in the case, Dooley, is a well respected member of his community and has no prior convictions on his record. Justice Peter Barr acknowledged that Dooley sincerely believed that treating himself and his mother with cannabinoids would be beneficial to their health, noting that this case was a "most unusual one."
Dooley explained that, after having lost his grandmother, wife, and close friend who were undergoing traditional cancer treatments including radiation and chemotherapy, he was convinced that those methods of fighting cancer actually killed them rather than helped. Dooley proceeded to grow 81 plants to use for treatment and claimed that his mother's cancer was cured using cannabis. The judge suspended Dooley's 6 month jail sentence, also claiming that Dooley was not a recreational user and was growing the plants specifically for medicinal use.
Do you wonder why anyone would want to use cannabis to treat cancer?
