^Word.

I'll just add this: Should "the fiance" decide to use marijuana; I would have her ask the doctor about using the marijuana in something like edibles vs smoking it.

If the department or agency has random drug testing that employee is walking a thin line. If he comes up dirty, the my roomie uses medical MJ defense will get him a oneway ticket to the unemployment line. If it were me she would either get on a different prescription med or one of us would get out of the house. If she truly cared for him and his career choice she would do that.

Well, they had a major falling out over this issue and he's moving into an apartment and will likely leave her permanently.
Pretty sad situation all the way around...
But, life goes on!

Even tho the subject matter appears to be moot, I will post a part of the OP's post. I do so so every non leo tempted to reply in this and every other thread in the LEO forum when the OP requests the following, doesn't reply.

Please no advice unless you are LEO or experienced union rep for your agency.

Despite the fact the OP was explicitly clear, a member responded and even admitted from the get go that he/she was not a leo. Every member should read the rules for this specialty forum in the sticky near the top of the forum.

Thank you.

Honestly... My agency probably wouldn't care as long as the guy didn't give a positive random UA.

I'm pretty sure we have Officers with immediate family members who use medical pot, and I know for a fact that some of our non-sworn staff have immediate family members who do.

I'm going to point out an important distinction in the OP. He/she specifically mentioned the "friend" is an 830.5 LEO would pretty much means a PA or a DPO. CDCR will definitely can you for this sort of thing, but generally, probation departments have a lot more variation in what they deem "appropriate" behavior outside of work. If the friend is a DPO, then it's next to impossible to say what his admin would think without knowing their department.

3 things kill LE jobs:

Booze

Bills

Badge Bunnies (I would define as op relevant here).

The three B's... Was introduced to that terminology many moons ago in training by some VERY experienced retired LEO's.

My buddy will probably be out by the weekend and is staying somewhere else for the time being. I honestly feel empathy for them both. He feels betrayed as she is obviously choosing something that could endanger their seemingly bright future together and she has a very serious illness that may see some relief from controlled MJ use vs. a rough run with methotrexate or other harsh prescriptions. Effe'ed up for all parties involved.

He has sought advice through union channels and been advised that going on record would likely have adverse actions taken against him. And she seemingly won't budge on the subject.
