Bernie's Diaries
Bernies account of his ordeal before, during and after his stay in the Diersen Halfway House makes very interesting reading.

This web site has been created to:

Educate Americans to the facts about medical cannabis through the experiences of one man

Illustrate the continuing harsh prosecution of medical cannabis users and providers in this country

Demonstrate the double jeopardy that users and providers face through the civil asset forfeiture proceedings that often accompany their criminal prosecution

Hear how the people who know Bernie best feel about him, his life’s work and the punishment he faces for producing enough cannabis for himself and a handful of very sick friends and neighbors

Plea for help on Bernie’s behalf, to help him keep the farm he holds so dear.

Please give to the “Save Bernie’s Farm” fund

• Help Bernie pay his huge legal bills, and
• Provide Bernie with an alternative to offer the federal government, in order to prevent them from confiscating his farm.
