Today's episode dives into a true story that sits at the crossroads of crime, cannabis, and consequence. My guest is Scott Eden, author of A Killing in Cannabis, a gripping work of narrative nonfiction that unpacks a shocking murder connected to the legal marijuana industry—and the human decisions that led to it.
Through meticulous reporting and storytelling, Scott explores not just what happened, but why it happened, exposing the risks, ethical gray areas, and real-world stakes behind an industry many assume is harmless. This is a conversation about justice, accountability, and the unintended consequences of rapid legalization.
