Nearly a half-century later, 'marijuana martyr' sees hope in Virginia


In March 1974, Roger Trenton Davis was sentenced to 40 years in prison for 9 ounces of marijuana, an unusually harsh punishment that would make him nationally known as the “marijuana martyr.”
Today, possession of small amounts of marijuana is legal in Virginia. Davis is a free man. And the Southwest Virginia native, now 75, is making the best of both things.
“That martyr? That’s who I am,” Davis said in an interview Thursday. “I believe that every person on the face of the earth should be allowed to enjoy God’s herb.”
Davis spent hard time in prison for possessing an amount of marijuana that, under laws that took effect July 1, in most circumstances would be punishable by no more than a $25 fine. ....

WYTHE COUNTY, Va. – A Wythe County man will spend the next 15 years in prison for having hundreds of images depicting child pornography.
Anthony Wayne Edmonds had previously been found guilty of 30 total charges of possession of child pornography.
On Thursday, Judge Josiah T. Showalter Jr. handed down the sentence in Wythe County Circuit Court during the hour-long hearing.
During the hearing, the Commonwealth argued that there were clearly two sides of Edmonds, one who was kind and generous; however, the other side was someone addicted to pornography, specifically child pornography, as there were over 700 images found on his computer, according to Wythe County Commonwealth’s Attorney Mike Jones. ....
