LOS ANGELES - Former G3 Holistic Inc. medical marijuana dispensary president Aaron Sandusky is expected to be sentenced to federal prison on Monday for up to 10 years.

"I'm looking forward to getting through this part of the process and move on to the appeal," Sandusky said in an email from inside the Metropolitan Detention Center in downtown Los Angeles. "I hope that this gets overturned or at minimum a new trial. There are no winners in this case."

Sandusky, convicted in federal court of operating medical marijuana dispensaries in Upland, Colton and Moreno Valley, will be sentenced at 8:30 a.m. at the Roybal Federal Building and Courthouse.

The Feds have recommended even worse for Aaron Sandusky who did follow State guidelines and was denied his real defense in Federal Court..


City man who robbed La Porte restaurant gets 12 years

LA PORTE — A 12-year prison sentence was given Friday to a man who robbed Archie's Restaurant in La Porte more than a year ago.

Demetrius Smith, of Michigan City, was given the eight-year maximum sentence for Class C felony robbery along with another four years because the crime violated terms of his probation.

He was on probation for robbing a Michigan City woman in 2007, according to court documents.
