Ed Forchion aka NJ Weedman says the charges are frivolous — and the American Civil Liberties Union says he's right.

Weedman's appeal of his 2010 conviction on marijuana possession could come before the U.S. Supreme Court.

Despite NJ Weedman's claims that last week's raid on his Trenton business was orchestrated by Sen. Raymond Lesniak (D-Union), the state lawmaker denied the marijuana advocate's claims, calling him a "raving lunatic."

"Fifteen years ago I said I was never going to take a plea. Since then I've beaten the Burlington County Prosecutor's Office twice. And now Mercer County has lined up for their ass whoopin'."

TRENTON — Perhaps not surprisingly, a business run by a guy who calls himself "Weedman" was found full of weed, authorities say. The high-profile raid Wednesday of the well-known marijuana activist's restaurant resulted in the arrest of 11 people, including NJ Weedman himself, and the seizure of about $19,000 in marijuana, officials said Thursday...

Nobody was arrested. Except NJ Weedman — but not for smoking weed.

Forchion probably knows Christie will not be partoking in public any time soon.

After battling the legal system on two coasts and spending time in and out of prison, New Jersey's loudest champion of marijuana went legit last year when he opened up a restaurant across from city hall in this state's capital city.

t's fair to call pro-pot activist Ed Forchion a friend of New Jersey 101.5 — he's a regular caller to multiple shows and has been for years. But Ed recently got mad at his longtime friend.

Ed Forchion, otherwise known as NJ Weedman, called into the Steve Trevelise show the other night, soon after video surfaced of him lighting up and smoking marijuana in a Trenton city council meeting.
