Reporting Highlights
Not an Anomaly: In the cases we reviewed, Colorado marijuana regulators took over seven months, on average, to warn the public after receiving a complaint or starting an investigation.
Open Loopholes: Colorado lacks measures adopted in many other marijuana markets to improve testing procedures that prevent contaminated marijuana from going to stores.
Multiple Chances: Even when the state discovers problems with a product that’s in dispensaries, manufacturers say they often continue selling the product while challenging the findings.
These highlights were written by the reporters and editors who worked on this story.
