DENVER—Colorado's top federal prosecutors are mum about possible actions against marijuana dispensaries in the state after authorities warned medical marijuana operations in California about a pending crackdown.
U.S. Attorney John Walsh was out of state Friday and unavailable for comment. His spokesman, Jeffrey Dorschner, declined comment, referring questions to California's four U.S. attorneys who on Friday were detailing their crackdown on dispensaries.
Marijuana legalization advocates said they're hopeful that the federal crackdown in California doesn't affect states like Colorado that have clear laws governing dispensaries. California voters passed a medical marijuana law in 1996. Morgan Fox of the Washington-based Marijuana Policy Project said California's law governing dispensaries isn't as clear as it is in Colorado.
