Weldon Angelos
President & Co-Founder
Weldon Angelos is music producer who has worked with legends like Snoop Dogg, Tupac Shakur’s recording group, and Tory Lanez.
In 2004, Weldon became the national face of criminal justice reform after he was sentenced to a mandatory 55-year prison term for a $1000 worth of cannabis. His cause was championed by Senators Cory Booker & Mike Lee, celebrities, leading news organizations like the Washington Post & Rolling Stone magazine, and even the Koch brothers, which led to an early release in 2016 after serving 13 years of his 55-year sentence.
Since his release, Weldon has become a leading activist working to end the cannabis prohibition and reform our federal criminal justice system.
