A single TikTok video that creates lines around the block. Sold out inventory. Thousands of new Instagram followers: This is the food influencer effect — or, what it can be.

California’s cannabis initiative sold voters on the promise a legal market would cripple the drug’s outlaw trade.

Instead, a Times investigation finds the law triggered a surge in illegal cannabis on a scale California has never before witnessed.

California’s legalization of recreational cannabis in 2016 ushered in a multibillion-dollar industry estimated to be the largest legal weed market in the world.

But many of the promises of legalization have proved elusive.latimes.com/california/sto…

Cannabis operations are easy to spot on satellite imagery. latimes.com/california/sto…
The Times obtained 2021 satellite imagery from a mix of public and private sources to canvas nearly 3,000 square miles of land in parts of six counties: Siskiyou, Trinity, Mendocino, Shasta, Butte and San Bernardino. latimes.com/california/sto…

But until recently, the department’s practices around so-called evidence dogs left those animals further neglected by denying them the socialization that could help their rehabilitation, animal activists say. latimes.com/california/sto…
