Nebraska Attorney General Mike Hilgers has filed four more lawsuits against THC shops in the state for what he calls rampant unlawful conduct in the industry, causing serious harm to Nebraskans. Hilgers accuses the shops of repeated mislabeling and contamination.
“Nebraska consumers, especially children, are at serious risk of harm due to the deceptive and unfair trade practices of these THC shops, including selling products that have sent Nebraskans to the hospital,” a press release from the Attorney General’s Office reads.
The four new lawsuits are against:
Smokin’ Deals, located at 101 W. Norfolk Avenue, Norfolk.
Smokes R. Less, located at 701 S. 25th Avenue, Norfolk.
Vapor Hutt, located at 902 W. Omaha Avenue, Norfolk.
NP Mart, a large chain with locations in Norfolk, Omaha, Lincoln, and several other cities across Nebraska.
The Attorney General’s Office previously filed a complaint against another Norfolk THC shop called Kynd, Co. Vape and Smoke.
“With our new complaints, we are ramping up our efforts to clean up Nebraska,” said Hilgers. “For the first time, we have sued every store in a community. These stores are misleading Nebraskans. Not one of the products we tested were accurately labeled, and many contained controlled substances.”
