Iowa CBD Shops Re-Open After Owner’s Arrest

Iowa CBD Shops Re-Open After Owner's Arrest - | HempRevs

A chain of CBD shops in Iowa has finally reopened after being shut down by the police in 2019, the Des Moines Register reports. The shops were first shut down when the owner, Lacie Navin, was arrested for drug charges.

Charged with “controlled substance violations and “unlawful substance tax requirement,” Navin — who became a passionate promoter of CBD after seeing how it helped her dad with his fibromyalgia — labored at six jobs to pay rent on three locations for “Your CBD Store” while she worked towards securing an Iowa state hemp license, according to the report.

“I know I’m on the right side of history, I know that these products help people and I know they’re organic and they’re good. That for me was the driving force to say I’m not letting go because what I’m doing is right.” — Lacie Navin, via The Des Moines Register

Navin was arrested and her stores, located in Valley Junction, Urbandale, and Ankeny, were shut down in 2019. But last year, Gov. Kim Reynolds (R) signed a law paving the way for the Department of Inspections and Appeals to create a hemp licensing program. Lacy says she cannot sell Delta 8 THC, however, her store does provide CBD, CBG, and CBN products made from USDA-certified organic hemp.

“We want to make sure everyone’s getting safe products and everyone’s complying with the rules that Iowa’s made in terms of CBD and what’s allowable with hemp,” she told the Register.
