Gov. Chris Christie’s strategy to implement New Jersey’s controversial medical marijuana law was dealt a setback Friday when Rutgers University said it will not become the state’s sole grower of the drug.
Christie was counting on Rutgers to grow the pot and allow a number of teaching hospitals to sell it, as a counter-proposal to the law that passed just before he became governor in January.
