VANCOUVER - Marc Emery, Vancouver's self-styled Prince of Pot, has
tentatively agreed to a five-year prison term in a plea bargain over
U.S. money laundering and marijuana seed-selling charges.
Facing an extradition hearing Jan. 21 and the all-but-certain prospect
of delivery to American authorities, Emery has cut a deal with U.S.
prosecutors to serve his sentence in Canada. He also hopes it will
save his two co-accused - Michelle Rainey and Greg Williams, who were
his lieutenants for so much of the past decade.
