Mike Scott Facing Up to 25 Years in Prison

This equates to just over an ounce of weed and ~100 hits of MDMA. Street value somewhere around 1500-2k. The owner of the Colts was arrested for having 30k in cash and a TON of prescription meds that weren't his. Never saw a day. The MDMA is the bigger charge and that is quite a bit for "personal use" and it really depends on the jurisdiction he was arrested in. But this is a 1st time offense and there is a defense that can be made. He will likely get probation and a hefty NBA suspension.

Listing the max sentence for each charge, adding them up, and presenting it as a possibility for a 1st time offender is horrifyingly irresponsible.

Well in court the prosecution is gonna start big when they really want a guy. Being a suspected drug dealer and NBA player is enough for a DEPT to wanna get a guy.

The owner of the Colts is a rich white guy. The rules are different. When you're rich and white and caught with drugs, you go to rehab.

You aren't a drug dealer when you have $1500 in drugs and make 3.3M. You are just a guy that doesn't want to repeatedly enter drug deals. Nate Newton got caught with 213 POUNDS of weed. Jamal Lewis got caught with 10 POUNDS of coke. And that 3.3M in income buys a lot of expensive lawyers that DAs want no part of. Unless the local laws are extra punitive this is going to go away.

Can't begrudge a guy for doing the occasional line either.

Hallucinogens are perfectly acceptable as well. They hold great promise in treating mental illness.

a little bit of any drug is fine i guess

 

[The Oi]

As long as it's off-season, bath salts are fine if a guy just wants to eat his neighbor.

 

[godfather]

Don't do drugs.

 

[elcheato]

Can't knock drugs until you try them

 

[Maximus]

Can't knock drugs until you try them

That's asinine.
