DeLena Sunshine Vaughan checks a man in at a cannabis expungement clinic held inside the Mt. Enon Baptist Church on Saturday. The clinic was free and aimed at helping people clear their records of minor cannabis charges.
It was the first expungement clinic since the COVID-19 pandemic began, and the community rooms and hallways inside Mt. Enon Baptist Church were packed. A group of local marijuana businesses hosted a free marijuana expungement clinic this past Saturday.
Organizer Tasha Rountree said they set up enough chairs and tables, and prepared enough paperwork, for 40 people. They had over 170 show up.
“We had to tell 80 people we can’t service you today because we’re done for the day,” Roundtree said. “So, we’re going to have another expungement clinic.”
