Hello andwelcome to Smoke Til It’s Gone or Die! We’re back at it again to accost your ears with Episode 22: Full Circle Full Square, rife with dramatic exclamations from both your fave stoned hosts. Patty tells the heart-wrenching story of 19-year-old Lisa Au, who went missing in 1982 on the island of Oahu. Misleads, absolute incompetence, and the suspicions of a dirty cop are just a few of the twists that make up this unsolved case. Rylee doubles (triples?) down on police incompetence with three cases of botched SWAT and police raids; highlighting the death of Alberto Sepulveda, who was shot by a SWAT team member during a raid to look for meth, the no knock search issued on Anjanette Young, and the detriment of the C.A.M.P. (Campaign Against The War On Drugs) initiative.
Patty’s Probable Cause this week is the Women’s Fund of Hawai'i: https://womensfundhawaii.org/
The mission of Women’s Fund of Hawaii is to support innovative, grassroots programs that empower women and girls statewide. The Fund provides information and education on women’s and girls’ philanthropy, shines a light on women’s and girls’ issues, and increases the visibility of our grantees.
Rylee asks that you check out the Drug Policy Alliance: https://drugpolicy.org/about-us
The Drug Policy Alliance envisions a just society in which the use and regulation of drugs are grounded in science, compassion, health and human rights, in which people are no longer punished for what they put into their own bodies but only for crimes committed against others, and in which the fears, prejudices and punitive prohibitions of today are no more.
Our mission is to advance those policies and attitudes that best reduce the harms of both drug use and drug prohibition, and to promote the sovereignty of individuals over their minds and bodies.

Under Massachusetts’ Chapter 94G and California’s Proposition 64 Bills it is legal for us two assholes to possess and consume MaryJane, medically known as cannabis, in our respective states. We do NOT condone the illegal consumption, possession, or sale of cannabis in places it’s not supposed to be smoked, man handled, or acquired from a legal dispensary. But we DO condone what the awesome humans at Marijuana Policy Project are doing to support legislation at the state and federal level to decriminalize cannabis across the country, and advocate for those who have been incarcerated for cannabis possession.
