The Maraschino Mogul (2018)

Sad that the idea of facing the punishment for growing marijuana pushed him to suicide. I wonder if he would have felt differently today, with changed attitudes over the past decade.

I do not think the bees turned red. The honey might, but not necessarily the bees. The article implies this through out.

Found some pictures of red honey in comb.

I always loved the trucks outside of the factory.

I cannot find out if I've hit the paywall or the article was just very short ? Last sentence reads

> Though circumstances put Mondella and the bees on opposite sides of an issue, the beekeepers still speak admiringly of him, and express regret at his unhappy end.

So many words but not one picture of a red bee.

The title on HN reads (2010) but this article is from 2018.
