Why this petition matters

Started by Beth Dahlke

After years of racial discrimination towards my brother. Troy MI police refuse to drop charges and a warrant for my brother's arrest. They want to throw him in jail for 6 months. This charge is against my brother (Ricky Dahlke) for smoking weed while legally in possession of a Michigan medical marijuana license. 

This is just the most recent in a long line of offences the Troy Police and other Oakland county departments have used against my brother because the color of his skin.

Marijuana is legal to possess and use recreationally in the state of Michigan but black men are still incarcerated or have warrants out for their arrest for these "crimes".
