Arrest of Ronald Williams in Fayetteville ends with dismissal

Ronald Williams, 63, of Fayetteville, faced charges of cultivating marijuana valued over 250000, but Judge John Hatcher dismissed the case after ruling deputies violated Williams' Second Amendment rights via improper searches. The article notes Williams’ ex-con status and restored civil rights prior to a 1989 firearm law, while criticizing the deputies’ warrant justification and praising the Constitution as a protective standard. It also covers debates over Green Card investor programs, Special Prosecutor Kenneth Starr’s investigation, and a beanie babies theft trend tied to drug addiction.
