"It makes one wonder why a public official made certain decisions, especially ones that benefited certain interests, when just days, months or years later they take a lucrative job lobbying for the same interests."

Complaint against DA over pot dispensary on hold

By Daniel Chacon, The Colorado Springs Gazette,
March 4, 2010

A Colorado Springs city councilman who threatened to file a complaint against Fourth Judicial District Attorney Dan May over a medical marijuana dispensary said today he’s ready to pull the trigger.

But Councilman Sean Paige said he’s going to wait until Monday to decide whether to send the complaint to the Attorney Regulation Counsel of the state Supreme Court.

May is scheduled to go before the City Council that day to weigh in on a proposed ordinance to regulate the medical marijuana industry in Colorado Springs, which Paige helped draft. Paige said he wants May to acknowledge during the meeting that his involvement in trying to force a medical marijuana dispensary out of his Rockrimmon neighborhood, including calling the owner’s landlord, was inappropriate.
