On April 20, 2023, Compton’s Illegal Dispensaries Task Force—featuring Councilman Andre Spicer and Special Counsel David Welch—appeared on KBLA’s First Things First to highlight the city’s decisive crackdown. In just six months, Compton dismantled at least one dispensary and shut down a total of nine unlawful cannabis shops across the city. Additionally, the task force filed lawsuits against over 30 defendants, including dispensary operators, property owners, and financial backers, emphasizing the city’s zero-tolerance stance on illegal cannabis operations. Spicer and Welch underscored that these enforcement efforts are anchored in maintaining public safety and legal integrity. In the spirit of Enso Law’s mission, this initiative reflects strategic nuisance abatement—protecting the community and enforcing compliance with clear legal standards.
