Minn. 'pot mom' cuts deal to avoid trial; charges dropped for giving sick son medical marijuana

A Minnesota mother, who was facing trial next week on charges that she treated her sick son with medical marijuana, has been offered a deal.

Angela Brown, a mother of three from Madison, says her attorney and the county prosecutor have agreed to skip the trial and drop the child endangerment charge she faces if she pays a small court fee and goes 90 days without repeating the offense.

That offense was giving cannabis oil to her 15-year-old son to treat the seizures and chronic pain he suffers as the result of a traumatic brain injury — a treatment that will be legal in Minnesota in three months.
