CAPE GIRARDEAU, Mo. (KMOX) – The Show-Me Cannabis Caravan makes a stop in Cape Girardeau this evening on a statewide campaign to promote the legalization and regulation of marijuana.

Weigert says he will be acting as a private citizen, not as a law enforcement officer, and that the role doesn’t constitute a conflict of interest.
