I'm watching that episode as I type this and I'm really in awe of the magnitude of the government's efforts to stop something that our state could benefit from enormously.

One does not need to have read much case law here in Michigan over the past eight years to realize how corrupt our "justice system" is and/or how incompetent our MMMA criminal defense has been (or at least what we have been able to afford). This mess of legal bullshit has now become our "law" (aka common law) nullifying any reasonable reading of MMMA. The fact (case law) that a judge not need care or consider if the target of their drug war raid, search and seizure is protected under our law is a travesty of justice. To base this decision (case law) on the precept that a Drug Task Force member providing "probable cause" (funded solely by federal drug war grants and asset forfeiture (robbery)) acts in "good-faith" and need not respect our law is ...

I assume you are referring to the third party postings on YouTube of entire TV series episodes that have been taken down for obvious copyright/ownership violations. Salty Michigan politicians and lobbyists may have reported the violation, but if Viceland were to post up the entire episode on their YouTube channel it would be untouchable.

Lawyer Michael Komorn wrote about his role in Viceland's filming here and noted how much was left on the cutting room floor given their 30 minute episode restrictions.

Given my work with StopTheRaids here, I can assure you very few of those assaulted are willing to go public with their humiliation. Although there is no lack of public cases given the breadth of the problem for the past eight years, just a lack of media/public interest/concern.

That's not true,any rights holder can file a DCMA on a YT video.
Pretty sure my original post was from the YT Vice channel. It is a trivial thing to use the DCMA to remove a video from YT,it's a automated process. They would need to sue Vice to have it removed from Vices website.
