    That law provides several different levels of trafficking, and Hotchkiss was convicted under the lowest level – having between 2.2 lbs and 100lbs. That weight includes all parts of the plant, root and stem and all.

    40 years, jesus fucking CHRIST.

        Many–there are people whose lives REALLY suck and they can’t imagine them being better so they want to make others’ lives worse. This is how a significant portion of the population votes.

      An old pot grower’s adage goes something like: if the sentencing minimum is for between 1-99 plants, you might as well grow 99.

      People like Bud serve as the real life example for this kind of saying sadly.

      This is stupid, why is the lowest charge range so big. 2.2 lb to 100 lb that is a huge range and you’re telling me there is ranges higher than that? He already has life in prison the hell do they do with the higher ranges
