Local teens and area experts are participating in a Court TV Teen Summit today at the SciTrek Technology Adventure at Atlanta’s Emory University to discuss marijuana use. The summit, "Embracing
Knowledge, Understanding Change: Youth Weed Out the Myths of Marijuana," will be moderated by Court TV's anchor, James Curtis, and taped as part of Court TV's national Choices & Consequences public
affairs initiative, to be aired on Court TV in the first quarter of 2003. To produce the summit, Court TV partnered with the National Youth Anti-Drug Media Campaign, which is part of the White House
Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP). The summit is supported in Atlanta by Comcast. During the summit, event moderator and Court TV anchor Curtis, who spent ten years as a prosecutor in
California's Riverside County District Attorney's office, will also address the criminal aspects of marijuana use.
