Who’s researching the researchers?

Ricardo Pereyda accepted the role of vice president and COO of the veteran-focused Weed for Warriors Project (WFW). He brought along another veteran named Sean Kiernan – who had also been involved with Sue Sisley and MAPS – to act as CFO for WFW (Kiernan would later become the CEO of the organization.).

When it came to light that WFW was helping veterans in Colorado grow, trim and access cannabis outside of medical research settings, Pereyda said that Sue Sisley began criticizing his efforts to colleagues, calling them illegal and saying he was “encouraging veterans to break the law.” Pereyda said that he wasn’t against medical research like Sisley’s, but he believed “we needed to get out there and put this shit in people’s hands so that it’s not a bullet or something instead.”
