Jabberwock Busted?
I've received a 2nd hand report that Jabberwock--the musical instrument and head shop on Cathcart near Pacific--was busted by the SCPD on Friday afternoon with a grand haul of a small amount (from .5 to 4 oz.) of marijuana from a group that had medical marijuana cards taking a break. Please post any information you may have about this local Drug War activity by the SCPD, which--if it happened as reported-- ay violate both Measure K (Marijuana as Lowest Enforcement Priority) and Proposition 215 (right of medical marijuana patients to possess and use marijuana).
A local last night advised me that around 4:20 PM, 5 or more police raided the Jabberwock store on Cathcart between Cedar and Pacific. He said he was not a direct witness but spoke to someone who had been at the store.
According to "Wolf", the store experienced a serious break-in by several teenagers in the last month or so. Police caught the two and then used "information" from them to stage a bust Friday afternoon. Wolf reported they seized a small quantity of marijuana. He didn't say if there were any arrests.
I'll be playing his account today on Free Radio Santa Cruz.
The Jabberwock store, next to Tacqueria Vallarta, seems to have a tolerant management. There's often a group of street folks hanging out in front. It's not easy to find on line.
The SCPD's CrimeMapping website doesn't mention any such bust. Nor has any account appeared in the Sentinel.
