“Who is this for?” DeZarn said, exhaling a puff of smoke. “This is for all my brothers and sisters who are currently being held prisoners of war by our government as a result of the war on drugs.”
Though no police were on the scene to arrest him, DeZarn, 46, of East Windsor, called the stunt a public statement for marijuana legalization, one of the chief tenets of his campaign for the state Senate seat in the 14th District.
