 | | Jones paid $3,934 in restitution over the weekend, and while the judge could levy up to $1,000 in addition fines, he did not, saying that he "believed Jones had already had $1,000 worth of suffering over the weekend." Jeff Jones stated that he was, "utterly speechless when the judge started talking. |
 | | He saw the error in his decision." Jones was convicted of jury tampering after handing out leaflets during jury selection for the case of medical marijuana provider, Bryan Epis. |
 | | The actions of the court in the case of Jeff Jones have contributed to the public debate over recent medical marijuana convictions of Ed Rosenthal, Keith Alden Bryan Epis, all convicted by a jury that was unaware that the defendants were operating within state law. |
