Massachusetts Treasurer fires Cannabis Control Commission Chair, Shannon O'Brien, due to gross misconduct allegations.
Massachusetts Treasurer Deborah Goldberg has fired Shannon O'Brien, chair of the Cannabis Control Commission (CCC), following a year-long suspension due to allegations of gross misconduct, including making racially insensitive remarks. Goldberg's decision, based on extensive reviews of meetings and documents, raises the possibility of further legal disputes, as O'Brien has denied wrongdoing and previously sued Goldberg. An acting chair for the CCC will be appointed soon.
