Exclusive: Portsmouth CA says misdemeanor marijuana cases to be dismissed
Portsmouth Commonwealth's Attorney Stephanie Morales says her office will no longer prosecute possession of marijuana cases in the Portsmouth General District Court.
In a letter Morales sent to the judges earlier this week, she says the policy change is effective immediately and that all cases would be dismissed with the payment of court costs.
Morales tells 10 On Your Side she started having conversations with judges in March, and they are on board with dismissing the charges.
