THE drug-trafficking dad of stolen baby Montana will be behind bars for at least the next five years. Guiseppe Dom "Joe" Barbaro -- who says his daughter's kidnapping ended his life of crime -- was sentenced yesterday to 9 1/2 years' jail with a minimum of seven for dealing in amphetamines, ecstasy and cannabis from 2002 until just months before his daughter's abduction in 2004. Montana was just three weeks old when she was snatched from her mother, Anita Ciancio, as she packed her car at a Deer Park shopping centre. The little girl was found two days later in an abandoned North Melbourne house. County Court judge Ian Robertson yesterday acknowledged the ordeal had …

August 07, 2006 Ignorance won't make abuse go away Author: The NPY Women's CouncilDate: August 07, 2006 Source: The Australian Copyright: Copyright: News Limited © 2006 Now the Aboriginal people themselves are saying it. I wonder if she's payed-off? I mean, I wonder how much she got payed for each occurrence of the word marijuana? Still, it is being smoked there and so it does contribute in some way to the general environment but, the conditions of these Aboriginal settlements must be appalling. I mean to live from one pay packet to the next be on grog and weed every day and then turn to pedophilia there must be just a hopeless pit of despair and a circle of…

News Limited has published a couple of cannabis crash stories, one covered twice, in the space of one week in what I would call the largest volley to be fired yet in the recently reinvigorated war against cannabis users. All three were published in News' Courier Mail along with other News publications. The first to come was on August 03, 2006 02:00am Crash driver mother admits cannabis use Author: Amanda GearingDate: August 03, 2006 Source: The Courier Mail Copyright: News Limited © 2006 My comment: What does it matter that she had taken cannabis nine hours before the fatal crash?

Quite funny I think. It's a shame one of the little 14 year old snitches decided to dob him in to the principal. Kids these days, I don't know. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Teacher dealt drugs in front of class August 10, 2006 12:00am Article from: The Daily Telegraph WHILE most teachers give out homework during class, a New South Wales casual teacher John Fitzgerald Kennedy dished out marijuana to students instead. During his Year 9 maths class at Sydney's Epping Boys High School earlier this year, he let slip to the 12 students he liked to drink and smoke marijuana on weekends. This opened the door for a 14-year-old…

A JUDGE said yesterday that a man caught on camera watering 354 cannabis plants at Lake Eppalock had to be more than a gardener. Massimo "Max" Paris, 36, pleaded guilty to cultivating a trafficable amount of cannabis and cultivating cannabis at his then home in Tullamarine. Defence lawyer David Brustman told Melbourne County Court that Paris was paid $2000 to tend to the crop at Patons Road, where he was captured on police surveillance between November 29, 2004, and January, last year, when he was arrested by Bendigo Crime Investigations Unit detectives. Judge Frank Dyett said Paris was unlikely to make a trip from Tullamarine in his Mercedes Benz and get into other…

A SYDNEY man has been charged over the largest seizure of cannabis in NSW, valued at more than $38 million.

During the dawn raid, police allege they located drying cannabis in two sheds and suspended within a crop site. Police arrested 15 people at the time. The latest arrest, of a 39-year-old Brighton-le-Sands man, was made outside his southern Sydney home at 11am (AEST) yesterday.

Some cannabis with your tea? von Jenny Wiggins Put that in your pipe and smoke it: A health beverage containing the plant is the latest in a string of new "functional drinks" to find a receptive market. Rituals associated with drinking tea are typically rituals of relaxation. In Britain, workers will take a break for a "mornin' cuppa". In India they will stop by the roadside to pick up a cup of chai. So when a group of entrepreneurs bought the rights to sell a drink made with tea and cannabis in the UK, it could have been the perfect opportunity for marketing a product guaranteed to make consumers zone out. Instead, C-Ice is concentrating on what it claims are its hea…

The Australian Sports Anti-Doping Authority has fined and reprimanded two players for testing positive to cannabis during the last National Basketball League season. Melbourne Tigers forward Rashad Tucker and former Perth player David Bailey tested positive to the banned drug during in-competition testing, and were fined $5,000 each. Bailey is no longer registered in the NBL after being released from his contract with the Wildcats at the end of last season. Basketball Australia said it supported the action taken against both players.
