According to the Gonzalez vs. Raich case, this case was one that brought upon numerous questions to the citizens in California. While both of the parties had distinctive arguments, there was always one question that many individuals had, regarding who would eventually prevail? There were debates discussing interstate commerce and whether the use of medical marijuana was a part of this debate as it was grown in the state of California, but could this event affect other states? Did Congress truly have the power to regulate medical marijuana, as it was not explicitly written out in the Constitution? Well, after truly interpreting the case and understanding the facts, I do feel that I would have ruled the case to be in the hands of the states.…

The first article I found was about a man named Micheal Hernandez who murdered his classmate in a school bathroom at Southwood Middle back in 2004.

Lastly, the prosecutors have strong evidence against Hernandez that could keep him locked away for life with no parole due to his chilling recordings of jail calls…
