An MDC spokeswoman said the facility will comply with the order.
Joe Montaño, 49, pleaded guilty to one count of aggravated DWI and in October 2019 was sentenced to serve 90 days in MDC’s Community Custody Program, which allows people to serve their sentence on house arrest instead of in jail, followed by 12 months of supervised probation. Montaño has had a valid medical marijuana card since 2015, court documents show.
In November 2019, CCP officers found marijuana in Montano’s possession and forced him to serve the rest of his 90-day CCP sentence in MDC custody, according to court documents. He was released in January 2020.
