Marijuana advocate Pierre Werner and other members of his family resolved their federal case Thursday by accepting plea bargains.
Werner was one of 14 people, including his mother and younger brother, arrested Jan. 6 in connection with marijuana sales at Las Vegas dispensaries.
He joined his mother, Reynalda Barnett, and younger brother, Clyde Barnett, in pleading guilty Thursday to one count of conspiracy to distribute less than 50 kilograms of marijuana.
Werner, 39, also pleaded guilty to one count of failure to disclose information affecting Social Security benefits.
U.S. District Judge Philip Pro is scheduled to sentence the defendants Oct. 18.
