2Firsts, August 28, 2025 —— On August 23, police in Abilene, Texas executed a search warrant at CBD House of Healing on Catclaw Drive, seizing more than 17 pounds of marijuana, thousands of pre-rolled joints, hundreds of THC vapes, and other cannabis products.

 

According to police, the raid stemmed from an investigation into possession of a controlled substance: tetrahydrocannabinol (THC). Back in June, an undercover officer purchased a vape at the store and testing confirmed it contained THC. Further testing by a state lab, with results returned on August 14, showed the vape contained more than 1% delta-9 THC, far above the 0.3% threshold allowed under the 2018 Hemp Bill.

 

Following the results, police obtained a search warrant and carried out the raid, seizing: 17.5 pounds of marijuana, 3,580 pre-rolled joints, 191 THC vapes, 400 THC vape cartridges, 28 jars of marijuana shake, 147 containers of wax/shatter, 538 containers of THC gummies, 137 cans of Cannadip, 15 containers of THC diamonds, 12 bottles of THC elixir, 10 packages of THC popcorn, along with various THC candies and edibles, business documents, training manuals, and $1,176.52 in cash.

 

No arrests have been made, and the case remains under investigation.

 

The store’s attorney, Chaile Allen, said she was denied access to her client during the raid and called it a serious violation of constitutional rights. She later resigned from her post as associate judge at Abilene Municipal Court in protest.

 

Abilene police have not responded to media requests for comment, saying only that their position was set out in an August 23 official press release.

JUUL Purchasers Ask Ninth Circuit to Preserve Antitrust Classes in Case Over Altria’s $12.8 Billion Investment
JUUL Purchasers Ask Ninth Circuit to Preserve Antitrust Classes in Case Over Altria’s $12.8 Billion Investment
Private antitrust litigation stemming from Altria's 2018 $12.8 billion investment for a 35% economic interest in JUUL is advancing before the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. Direct purchasers, indirect purchasers and indirect resellers of JUUL products filed answering briefs this week seeking to preserve class certifications granted by a California federal court in February. Altria and JUUL argue that individual consumers and large distributors differ too much in purchasing terms to remain in a single direct-purchaser class, while a separate dispute concerns whether California antitrust law can apply to indirect purchasers across 27 jurisdictions. A September trial has been put on hold during the appeal.
