Former Packard plant owner to surrender in medical marijuana case today
Romel Casab, an Oakland County businessman and real estate owner, is expected to be charged Thursday in federal court after an investigation alleging he used businesses, including a medical marijuana dispensary, as fronts for a large-scale drug ring, according to federal court records.
Casab, who at one time claimed to be part-owner of the former Packard Motor Co. plant in Detroit, is scheduled to surrender to the U.S. Marshals Service on Thursday, his lawyer told Crain's Detroit Business. The case is emerging five years after drug agents raided nine locations across metro Detroit, including a dispensary tied to Casab, and seized a 1988 Ferrari, a 1928 Studebaker, a 2001 Harley-Davidson motorcycle, guns, marijuana and more.
