PORTLAND - Two law-enforcement agencies and the state of Maine have denied accusations by a 48-year-old Mexico man that his religious rights were violated when his marijuana was seized.

Norman A. Hutchinson filed suit against the Mexico Police Department, the Maine Drug Enforcement Agency and the state of Maine last month in Oxford County Superior Court. The case was transferred to U.S. District Court in Portland after police said the federal laws involved in Hutchinson's accusations required the case to be heard there.

Hutchinson argues that he is a member of the Religion of Jesus Church, which mandates the use of cannabis based on 12 tenets.

From the Portland Press Herald

"And when, pray tell, did he join the Religion of Jesus Church?
Hutchinson paused for several seconds, then said, "It was ... just before this stuff started happening."
And how did he find the church?
"On the Internet," he replied."
