COLORADO TRANSFER TO D3 PHENOM GETS ARRESTED

Should have stayed in CO where it's legal (not 3.3 lb packages in the mail) but legal nonetheless.

WSU, ASU, Metro State, and CC all have solid running programs. Mines would be tough academically. Probably could have gotten a full ride or partial scholarship at UNC-Greeley. If he has a clean record maybe get off with probation.

That said. I hate all the righteous dweebs here. Let's meet up and fight! Put em up. I'll take you on!

All the more reason to legalize.... it's not that hard

I’m not going to get into whether or not recreational marijuana use should be legal or illegal; however, I will say only a monumental idiot would have 3.3 lbs of pot shipped to his school address. He has to be the dumbest candy striper ever, and I’ve known some real special ones over the years.

It's not ridiculous because 3.3 pounds is way more than one would use for personal consumption, which means he was dealing, profiting from and supporting an illicit black market activity. Considering the level of murder and organized crime activity in the Chicago area, he is helping to fuel that culture of violence that is so prevalent in Chicago.

That's laughable dirty Joe.

Marijuanna is the cause of Chicago violence?

So, a d3 xc runner brings in 3 lbs of top shelf to Illinois and that fuels the organized crime and drives the murder rate up.

....Maybe you need to pack a bowl yourself. You're delusional.

Illicit black market activity? This isn't heroin we're talking here dude. Decriminalize it, take away the profit margin, it's no longer lucrative as a criminal enterprise. Not rocket science.

Here's article that mentions his running

A friend of mine who died of an overdose told me there is a whole illicit drug market via usps and bitcoin. He also said people prefer to use Usps as it's harder for them to search it whereas FedEx and UPS are private companies and the product can be searched without as much cause. Any truth to that?

Beat me to the Jeff Sessions reference. This is the type of crime that gives him wet dreams! Getting those suburban weed dealers off the streets!

But that would take away activity for our massive drug and criminal enforcement apparatus, and we can't leave them out in the cold.

I worked at a FedEx office over a summer recently. Every Friday, the same two guys would come in and buy $1000 worth of the same sized box in all legit $5 bills. The reason they came to that store was because we were only a block away from the regional warehouse and could always come up with enough boxes They'd buy two Cokes with the change. On Monday, they would without fail arrive to ship every box to one of two addresses (even going so far as to insure each one for $50) and let me tell you the outgoing storage room reeked of the devil's lettuce for the rest of the day.

If it's not a firearm, explosive, poisonous, or living FedEx doesn't give a sh!t

Reminds me of a great Mitch Hedberg joke.....

I love my fed-ex guy cause he's a drug dealer and he doesn't even know it...and he's always on time.

I don't see what the big deal is over weed...even at 3.3lbs. I guess I'm used to being in SoCal and seeing people just waltz into dispensaries with trash bags full of flower and no one batting an eye.

And 3.3lbs of top shelf, private reserve retail is only worth $1500-2000. That $15k street value in the article is so dishonest and disgusting.

Guess too much weed has stunted your math skills.

At $10 per gram, 3.3 pounds is $15k. I’ll go slower since clearly you’re a pothead so math is hard.

There’s about 28 grams per ounce. There’s 16 oz in a pound. So there’s 52.8 oz in 3.3 pounds. 52.8 x 28 gives you 1478 grams in 3.3 pounds. At $10 per gram 3.3 pounds is 15k.

Lay off the weed dude. All the propaganda saying it doesnt hurt you is... well... just that: propaganda.

The classic "devastated" joke. It's still so funny.

Meanwhile big pharma companies pump tons of oxy into the American market, ruining tens of thousands of lives and killing thousands with overdoses, all very "legally".

Was he selling for fun or personal bests?

Before I discern I will state the following: this young man's life changed that day and changes right now. He will enter a depression and lose friends, activities like running, have a lot hanging over his head, etc. I hope when he reads this he matures and acknowledges it is a long road ahead. Stay strong kid and stay out of trouble.

Now I will share the technicalities. Depends on the following things:

* how it was found

* what he admitted

* past convictions

* who he and his family retains as his legal defense

I have seen illegal search and seizures be exposed in the courtroom and things like this dismissed. The mail will be have different elements to it but a lot of factors are at platly. Important questions are who sent it, from where and where was he at the time it was sent. Also, if he kept his mouth shut and didnt leave a paper trail there is hope.

This is going to be federal I'd think which sounds worse than state level convictions but you'd be surprised.

I saw a 500 plant grow operation case in the state of Wisconsin of a "once in a lifetime student" of horticulture according to teachers end up with about a year. He owned a house at 22 and the electricity bill was about 6-8x greater than his neighbors which brought about suspicions. He is now happily pursuing his PhD. I wont share assumptions about how he got off that lightly but the feds will "cooperate" under the right circumstances.

I saw two young men in the state of Minnesota, both college students, get popped with 5.5lbs in the trunk. Initially both kept their mouths shut and requested legal representation. The driver was willing to take the blame and his more established friend said nothing. They were both really good friends all their lives. The one who said nothing was given a non-criminal citation. The one who took the blame was later acquitted on a technicality.

Two 80+ year olds in Illinois (I think) were caught with a mega farm. Each got a year.

Of course there are bad stories too. But this kid's parents need to go to the well to get him good representation. You need super lawyers with the drop-jaw effect to enter the court room on his behalf and that is just the beginning. Regardless of outcome nobody actually wins in the courtroom. All the best to him.

Why do you assume he was selling it at the per gram price? he probably doesn’t know enough people to make 1500 transactions. since he cant do that its not worth 15k

you need to chill out and start actually thinking.

Anyone who thinks this suburban rich white boy will spend a day in jail or prison is kidding themselves.

Bail, plea bargain community service, probation, and a fine at worst.

Maybe he'll be expelled, maybe.
