Alabama TE arrested for possession of DRUGS

[Camfantasy]

That's the thing. it's just weed. But where they are it's illegal or at least a certain amount is. Now if your job or your scholarship would be in jeopardy by getting caught smoking it or coming up positive for it then you're just a stupid idiot for having it and smoking it with what you have to lose. Go get some beers and call it a night. Whats funny is I wonder if Alabama does any testing of it's players because I have yet to hear about players coming up positive there but they have multiple players every year getting caught with it and stoned. lol. Someones hiding the results and I bet I know who.

a single seed is illegal in alabama

they give zero fucks round here. shit might as well be meth


In the State of Alabama, it is a misdemeanor crime to possess any amount of marijuana whatsoever for personal use. It is an offense that is punishable by a fine up to $6,000 and up to 1 year in jail.

It is a felony to possess cannabis for any reason other than “personal use.” The same goes for any offender previous found guilty of possessing cannabis for personal use. In both cases, these felonies are punishable by a fine up to $15,000 and a prison mandatory minimum sentence of no less than one year and one day, but no more than 10 years.

Under an OZ is possession, over an OZ is possession with intent to sell.

Alabama has done nothing to decriminalize. He goes to jail, will get a year probation, maybe 2 and have to pay fines and maybe even do a rehab thing. All depends on how good his lawyer is.

never heard that before in my 30 years of living here and can't find it online anywhere. i always thought that was up to the arresting officer as long as it is under 2.2lbs and can't be considered trafficking

That just means these players are stupid. If my scholarship would be in jeopardy then why would you ever take the chance when you can just have some drinks.

I agree. Young adults that age are typically dumb in general, but they need to realize from the get go that they aren't just typical college students.

I love smoking reefer and have smoked many a pound of it in my semi-young life.... but i work in the healthcare field now and that doesn't fly. I like monnies more than i like weed. It's fucking dumb for it to be as illegal as it is here though. Zero reason for small amounts to not be decriminalized and for it to be off the shelf medically.

When I was growing up there were 2 charges as I remember, possession and possession with intent to sell. Anything up to an ounce and in a single baggie was possession and anything over, or having it in separate baggies was intent to sell.

I have no idea about it being up to the arresting officer, never heard that. Also I've never heard 2.2lbs meaning anything, but that amount wouldn't mean anything to me and it's been quite a few years for me. A friend of mine got a few years in prison for a couple of ounces as it was considered intent to sell, so the 2.2lbs certainly isn't a minimum.

I got busted 17 years ago for about a half oz and it was personal possession. Although I just moved to California and said fuck them. Then about 6 years ago I got a lawyer and they dropped the possession and I plead guilty to paraphernalia(papers). I guess they figured they'd rather have $1,000 than nothing. It's not like I had anything to worry about in California, but it's nice to be able to visit my mom without worrying about it.

Needless to say, I'm very pissed about Alabama's laws.

His scholarship isn't in jeopardy unless he has other issues going on that aren't public.

 

[fishinabarrel]

Got here late. Has anyone asked the mandatory air conditioning question yet?

Didn’t a Washington Husky get busted for weed last year? I guess Petersen lost control of that program too.

I forgot . Getting arrested is a right of passage at Alabama.

 

[Wamu]

What an egregious offense. Death penalty!

That kid needs to be punished severely. Make him play for Lane Kiffin this upcoming season!

Like most of the PAC, they're not important enough for anyone to pay attention to tho.

There’s not many conferences the B1G can point and laugh at, the PAC happens to be one for a year.

I’ve been fairly vocal about my outrage with the university on this issue.
Soooo.....Michigan State

Things are getting out of hand in Tuscaloosa with this one. Post-season ban for Alabama, possibly entire SEC.

Stop sexually harassing me or I'm going to report you to the admins.

Who will, no doubt, also sexually harass you.

 

[trojanfan12]

How about waterboarding him?

Would help take care of cotton mouth.

Will there be some Bama on Bama teabagging, film at 11.

I smoked a lot of weed during my high school and college days but now I'm into beer and whiskey.

For me, lots of beer and whiskey in high school and college. Into weed now.

I didn’t know getting arrested for pot was still a thing.

Alabama still like 50 years behind the rest of the country.
