Former TV talk show host Montel Williams wants to open medical marijuana facilities in the District. Wednesday, he pleaded his case before a crowd of 150 residents in the basement of Israel Baptist Church in Northeast.

Williams has applied for two cultivation center licenses on nearby Queen’s Chapel Road.
