Indeed surprisingly, cannabis can have bad effects on human. This has been taken I to account in a French case where murder of an old lady was declared not responsible due to its cannabis consumption.

The handful of French nationals I know regard that case as a grotesque miscarriage of justice emblematic of the double standard by which French and EU laws essentially do not apply to third-world economic migrants.

Irrespective of the judgment made, the expert mandated for that case( they were two distincts group) concluded the same. The cannabis hashad an effect on the behaviour.

I use the case as an illustrative example of the effect of the cannabis. Not judging the case here
