From Special Forces to Sovereign Soil - with Preston McCormick

In this episode I sit down with ex-Special Forces officer turned entrepreneur, Preston McCormick.

n this episode I sit down with ex-Special Forces officer turned entrepreneur, Preston McCormick. After bravely serving his country, Preston made a foray into the legal cannabis farming industry in California, setting up shop on Sovereign Indian Tribal Land.  What should have been a peaceful entrepreneurial endeavor soon took a harrowing turn.

Preston recounts the shocking day when Riverside County Sheriff’s Office (RSO) raided his legal cannabis farm, despite his prior efforts to verify its legality. Hear about the traumatizing experiences of being held at gunpoint, the impact on his family, and the relentless destruction of his livelihood. This isn't just a story of a raid gone wrong - we dive deeper into the unsettling undercurrents of corruption, the questionable tactics of RSO, and Preston's relentless pursuit of justice against all odds.

This is more than a story of a veteran-turned-entrepreneur. It's a tale of resilience, determination, and standing up against systemic corruption.
