"Child Actor Named in Marijuana Suit"
http://content.answers.com/main/content/wp/en/thumb/8/8a/200px-Rettig_in_1955.png
Tommy Rettig was charged with a number of drug charges, including growing Marijuana. Mr. Rettig was the first boy who tagged after Lassie during the famous collie's 20 years on the CBS television network. An already established child star, he was chosen from over 500 other boys to play the 11 year old midwestern farm boy, Jeff Miller, when "Lassie" premiered on September 12, 1954.
Though Mr. Rettig was a long time advocate for the legalization of marijuana, all of the drug charges against him were later thrown out.
For the last 15 years of his life, Rettig was a very well-known database software author and expert. He was a very early employee of Ashton-Tate, and specialized in (sequentially) dBASE, Clipper, FoxBASE and finally FoxPro.
Mr. Rettig passed away in 1996.
