Two associates of Vancouver pot activist Marc Emery have been sentenced to two years of probation in a Seattle courtroom.

The U.S Department of Justice says in a news release that 38-year-old Michelle Rainey and 54-year-old Gregory Williams pled guilty to helping Emery mail marijuana seeds and growing instructions through to customers in the U.S.

Williams also says in his plea agreement that Emery made more than $3 million dollars a year selling marijuana seeds.

Emery, the so-called Prince of Pot, is preparing for a minimum five-year sentence in the United States.
