San Diego marijuana stores face eviction
SAN DIEGO, Sept. 30 (UPI) — San Diego authorities said a North Park neighborhood building owner agreed to evict medical-marijuana dispensaries and massage parlors.
San Diego City Attorney Jan Goldsmith said the owner of the building, at 4009-4010 Park Blvd., agreed to evict four medical marijuana dispensaries and a dozen massage parlors after authorities determined the businesses were violating zoning laws, the Los Angeles Times reported Friday.

Judge Andrew Sweet approved Naso’s motion to unshackle his left hand to allow him to write during court proceedings. The order applies up to his Jan. 10 preliminary hearing.
Sweet said the issue can be revisited then, and if the Marin County District Attorney’s Office wants Naso shackled it can file a motion to do so.
Naso’s next hearing is Oct. 11.
The Reno man is accused of murdering four prostitutes in the 1970s and 1990s throughout Northern California: Roxene Roggasch, Carmen Colon, Pamela Parsons and Tracy Tafoya. He has pleaded not guilty.
Authorities around the country are also looking at Naso as a suspect in more cold cases.
Authorities said Naso kept a numbered list of 10 women — including the four prostitutes he is charged with killing — and news clippings of the crimes in a safety deposit box.
After roughly two days of deliberations, a jury found Rushing’s testimony — denying he was involved in the crime — unbelievable and that the testimony of several witnesses told the true story about the death of Dawyone Taylor.
Taylor was killed about 3:30 a.m. on April 15 in the 8000 block of International Boulevard by a single gunshot to his chest, which a prosecutor argued in court was fired by Rushing who was upset because he believed Taylor stole his iPod.
While Rushing denied he killed Taylor, another witness identified the aspiring rap singer as the murderer. The witness said he heard Rushing point out Taylor as the person who stole his iPod minutes before Rushing jumped from a car and shot the 25-year-old.
That witness, however, was an admitted crack addict and another witness who saw the crime was an admitted prostitute who said she was smoking marijuana when she saw the murder occur.
Dolge said Monday that Rushing’s claim that he didn’t own an iPod and wasn’t knowledgeable about devices for listening to music wasn’t credible because he is in the music business and has recorded several rap videos.
One of the videos is titled “Get That Dough,” and most of it was filmed about a block away from where Taylor was killed. The video shows Rushing throwing money around, other people rolling and smoking marijuana joints and a man pointing a gun at the camera.
McDougall was not available for comment.
In his opening statement in the case, McDougall told jurors that there’s no direct evidence that Rushing is the person who killed Taylor and said the prosecution’s case is shaky because it’s based on the testimony of drug users and prostitutes whose credibility is suspect.
