ARIZONA, — According to a press release, police discovered an illegal “cannabis dispensary” in Maricopa County, Arizona. Early August, the sheriff’s office stated that they had stumbled upon the illegal operation on Phoenix’s south side.
Disguised as a smoke accessories retail store, Korporate Smoke is said to have been the cover for the illegal drug ring. Hidden beyond the glass pipes, bongs, and rolling paper, police claim that there was a secret room used to commit the alleged crimes.
Along with marijuana, police stated that they confiscated mushrooms, four guns, and “other drugs.” Two men, James McCoy and Corey Cashman, were also found hidden in the room and taken into custody, along with $35,000 in cash.
Also in custody is one female, Alisa Simpson, who the police claim was the mastermind behind the whole thing. A public records search shows Ms. Simpson as the registered agent, and one of the male alleged perpetrators, James McCoy, is listed as a manager. The business itself has been active only since April 2021.
While this is an ongoing case, all parties are assumed innocent until proven guilty.
