I'm sure it's probably happened in more than one case jimmy -- it's such an easy thing for a local prosecutor to start up such an action and be hailed as a hero, especially around election time --
Personally I'm not entirely sure I'm comfortable with the defense on this one being the legality of prosecution across state lines -- while it would be fantastic to have the court say it's not a relevant reason to prosecute, it could also go the other way and you could find certain locales prosecuting everything they can find, making it very expensive for the industry to keep hiking out to Bumfuck Mississippi or Backwoods Alabama to defend ourselves.
