I mean except he was found guilty of drug trafficking

Which doesn't make it accurate.


Which means there was evidence of it. Sorry.

But then again you think 3 pounds of pot is for personal use...so I'm basically arguing with a wall

Sorry, it doesn't, but as you're repeating the same talking points despite them being proven wrong, I'm just going to cut you off here


Ahahahaha translation

"I'm wrong and cant take the fact that I'm wrong"

Lol dude honestly thinks 3 pounds of pot is for personal use...naive or ignorance doesnt which seeing how it's sad either way

If you have enough weight of a drug, depending on the states laws, then it becomes a trafficking charge. Regardless of whether or not that person is actually a drug dealer.

Which is unjust in this case. If he'd bought it there illegally that'd be different because he'd actually be supporting the drug trade, but as it is they're charging him 8 years when he never caused harm, and they have no evidence he intended to cause harm.

There's no way he bought three pounds of marijuana legally. That's not how medical marijuana is dispensed.

But it should be legal regardless. It's stupid to send people to jail over marijuana.

This kinda seems likely. Best case scenario he was likely going to share it with friends/family and not sell it, but that's a pretty damn hefty investment. Worst case, and most likely one from the upfront costs, he was trying to do a quick "double your money" kinda deal.

Sure there is. Be aware of state-to-state laws. You can say "but he bought it legally" but, on the one hand, that's a huge fucking amount of it being transported in to a state where it -isn't- legal. If it were a personal use amount they likely wouldn't have given a fuck--unless the guy is literally smoking 24/7 that isn't a personal amount.

That said, honestly, he'll probably get off after being in there for a little while due to outrage and it likely not being worth it to the state/city.

That said the wording is janky so it could be bullshit and unjustifiable.

It's STILL fair that he gets a couple years in prison. I rethought it and think maybe 8 years is a lot but give him 3 for good behavior and if he doesn't act good, give him 5. That's seems the most just

It's not fair to give him even a single fucking day in jail for having weed

I agree. That is just one minor detail that I think people are overlooking. He shouldn't have been pulled over and shouldn't have gotten caught. Of course he still had weed in a state where it was illegal but the cops shouldn't have known that as they shouldn't have pulled him over for what he did.

Yet I know that excuse would never fly anywhere. Maybe it can be evidence he was racially profiled and randomly pulled over. I don't know anything about law. All I did was quickly search what a fog line was.

While you're right, until the laws are changed you still can't be bringing 3 pounds of weed into illegal states and not expect to be let go if caught.

...intimate knowledge? I said a few posts earlier a half ounce costs around $100 where I am, so i just did the math to get $9600. 3 pounds of weed is more than a years worth for personal use. This guy was trafficking it. I dont like it, but theres no way it was for personal use.

Im for legalization and think it shouldnt be a crime in the first place, for what its worth. Im just being realistic about what his crime was compared to the people that seem to think 3 lbs isnt a suspect amount of weed to be transporting anywhere.
