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.
