Palm Desert tells marijuana dispensary to cease and desist

CannaHelp, the medical marijuana dispensary in Palm Desert is being told to close up shop. The city has sent the business a cease and desist letter.

Palm Desert City Attorney David Irwin told NewsChannel 3 CannaHelp violated its agreement with the city and its business license is now revoked.

CannaHelp was raided a little more than two weeks ago when authorities believed the dispensary was selling pot for profit.

The owner of CannaHelp then admitted to NewsChannel 3 that he did sell pot for a profit, saying he's paid a salary.

Since that interview aired, we have heard from the district attorney, who told us our story could be used in court.

Also, the owner called us back, threatening to file a lawsuit for showing the interview.

Stay tuned to NewsChannel 3 for more on this developing story.
