This author has just noted that Louise Lucas’s cannabis stores in Portsmouth and Norfolk, both raided by the FBI last week, are not registered with the Virginia Cannabis Control Authority.  

Perhaps they do not have to register. The Portsmouth store advertises Vape cartridges and tincture oil, not medical marijuana. 

But one of the featured reviews of her The Cannabis Outlet in Portsmouth is perhaps untimely: 

I am not sure about the past but currently, this is a very good store. Lots of very strong strains. I love this place! I get what I want, when I want it.

We and the FBI are left to wonder whether Mr. Childers obtained “very strong strains” of the vape cartridges or the tincture oil.
