UNDATED (WSAU-WAOW) The Wisconsin Department of Justice issued a statement saying state law surrounding the sale of gummy bears that contain cannabis-oil are confusing and need to be clarified by the state legislature. The DOJ says until lawmakers choose to clean up the problem stores are now free to sell the product under certain conditions.
Lt. Randy Alberts with the Marathon County Sheriff’s Department told WAOW-TV, “a concentration of .3 percent or less of THC is a permissible level to have in CBD oil or gel capsule candy.”
Earlier this week the Racine County DA advised sotres there that selling gummy bears with cannabis-derived oil was illegal.
WAOW-TV reported earlier this week that at least one store in Rib Mountain was selling the gummy bears.
State law was intended to allow cannabis-oil to be sold in pill form with a special license to help children who suffer from seizures.
