Police raid dying cancer patient's hospital room for marijuana after he admitted to taking THC pills to combat pain
Nolan Sousley received a visit from the cops when his room at the hospital began to smell of marijuana. In a video shared by Nolan on Facebook, two cops can be seen searching through Nolan's belongings, searching for the pot. The 52-year-old suffers from 4 pancreatic cancer and was a little taken aback when he was paid this sudden visit by the officers from Bolivar Police Department. The officers were called at the hospital, and in the video they shared the reason for their operation.
The officers can be heard confessing that they received a concerned call which claimed Nolan's room at the Citizens Memorial Healthcare was smelling of marijuana on Wednesday night. However, while the officers were ransacking through Nolan's things, he admitted that he did inhale a couple of puffs of a cigar while in the parking lot. He also stated that he did swallow a few THC oil pills in order to help him overcome the pain inflicted by cancer and added, quite confidently, that he does not rely on a 'ground-up plant'. He also exclaimed to the officers, as can be heard on the video, "It's the only choice I got to live, man. We're Americans. I was born here, it's my right to live."
