Blue Line Protection Group's VP of Compliance Interviewed by Denver Media for Expert Analysis on Criminal Threats to Marijuana Dispensaries

DENVER, CO--(Marketwired - Jun 11, 2014) - Blue Line Protection Group (OTCBB: EGRVD) (OTCQB: EGRVD), a leading provider of security, compliance and financial services for the legal cannabis industry, today announced its Vice President of Operations and Compliance, Ricky G. Bennett, was interviewed by Fox 31 News and 9News and regarding a recent public warning issued by the Denver Police Department of a credible criminal threat to lawful marijuana couriers in the area. Mr. Bennett's interview by Fox 31 News can be seen here.

The police warning issued on June 5th read, "The Denver Police Department has received credible information about a plot to rob marijuana dispensary couriers located in the Denver metro area. All marijuana businesses should be alert and aware of their surroundings as they conduct their business."

Mr. Bennett has served as Chief of Police for the city of Aurora, CO and has over 30 years of experience in the criminal justice field, including training in risk and violence assessment with the United States Secret Service.

During his interview, Mr. Bennett commented how this police warning is of specific concern to Blue Line Protection Group, which is the largest armored logistics division transporting cash and product for marijuana dispensaries in the country. Mr. Bennett went on to urge dispensary owners in the Denver metro area not to take risks associated with transporting their cash and product themselves.

In response to the police warning, Blue Line Protection Group issued a "Crime Alert" notification to over 70 marijuana dispensaries in the Denver area, offering security and compliance consultations at no cost to help ensure the safety of their business, employees and the general public.

Blue Line Protection Group is currently contracted by 52 of the licensed cannabis dispensaries and grow operations in the Denver area to provide armed security, surveillance and compliance services.

"Just as banks rely on armored services to transport their assets, our clientele needs to rely on trained protection specialists to safely transport their cash and product," said Sean Campbell, CEO of Blue Line Protection Group. "Lawful business owners and their employees that are untrained, unarmed and unarmored, put themselves and the general public at risk when they move their cash and products between their businesses and storage facilities. Blue Line Protection Group minimizes the risk of felony criminal activity and creates a secure retail experience by protecting businesses on-site and securing their assets on the road."

"Most legal marijuana dispensaries realize the seriousness of these threats and the ongoing presence of criminals that find these companies to be very lucrative targets for robbery," added Mr. Campbell. "Blue Line's security, compliance and consulting services consist of the highest trained professionals that are almost exclusively former military and law enforcement personnel. Our staff can help protect their personal and financial safety while ensuring that they consistently meet the required state regulations to operate their businesses and maintain their license."
