In this compelling episode of The Unnecessary Harm Podcast, we sit down with attorney David G. Evans, a fierce advocate for accountability in the cannabis industry. With over 40 years of experience in addiction law and public policy, Dave offers invaluable insights into the dangers of marijuana legalization and its impact on society.
He discusses his role in the founding of the Cannabis Industry Victims Educating Litigators (C.I.V.E.L), a legal platform aiming to take action against the marijuana industry’s harmful practices. From his early support for medical marijuana to his realization of its devastating effects, Dave shares the lessons he learned the hard way. He exposes the myths surrounding marijuana, its increasing potency, and the rise in cannabis-related injuries, including psychosis.
Dave’s passion for prevention, regulatory reforms, and drug-free policies challenges the growing normalization of marijuana use and provides a sobering counter-narrative to the cannabis industry’s aggressive push for legalization. Tune in to hear about the legal battles, lawsuits, and his recent victory with the American Association for Justice’s new Cannabis Injury Litigation Group.
