Denmark Overturns 650 Cannabis Convictions Due to Faulty THC Testing
A Vestre Landsret ruling overturned a drug conviction due to flawed forensic analysis. The court rejected evidence from gas chromatography, a method converting the legal THC-A into the illegal THC, rendering THC content measurements unreliable. This prompted the Rigsadvokaten to review all cannabis-related cases since 2018, involving approximately 650 cases where the distinction between THC and THC-A was not made. The Landsforeningen af Forsvarsadvokater supports this review, stating that convictions based on flawed evidence are unacceptable.
