SNOOP PLEADS NO CONTEST IN POT CASE

OBERLIN, Ohio ( AP ) -- Snoop Dogg pleaded no contest to marijuana possession charges, and received a $250 fine and a suspended 30-day jail sentence.

The 30-year-old rapper, whose real name is Calvin Broadus, was charged with possession of marijuana and drug paraphernalia after his tour bus was stopped in nearby Amherst by the State Highway Patrol for speeding on Oct. 17. Drug-sniffing dogs found six bags of marijuana weighing about 200 grams in the cargo hold of the bus.

Defense attorney Jay Milano entered the plea Tuesday on behalf of Broadus, who was not required to appear in Oberlin Municipal Court.

The rapper and his band were stopped during a concert tour titled "Puff, Puff, Pass 2001." Its name refers to sharing marijuana.

The band had played a show in Cleveland the night before and was en route to Detroit when the tour bus was stopped.

Oberlin is 30 miles southwest of Cleveland.

so they find over 2lbs of weed and he gets off scott free. gimmie a fuckin break. if that was anyone else they wouldve gotten the fucking chair.

And that was post 420 for you...hmm...

Lol 2 pounds of weed :) not bad not bad

How much do you have to have before it's a "possession with intent to supply" charge?

For an average person, 2 pounds means you were planning to sell it. For Snoop, 2 pounds is a couple day's supply for himself.

He's fucking Snoop Dogg, bow to the power.

cool

metric... metric... ;-)

200 grams is not 2 pounds, it's only a little over 7 ounces.

cheers

thats like 2 doobies for snoop, there is no posssible way they could have busted him for intent to supply.

remember the rule of thumb

you + two pounds = dealer = jail time

snoop dog + two pounds = 2 joints = no jail time

Ohio actually looks kind of reasonable as far as US states go, he would have only been charged with a misdemeanor. Looks like anything less that 100 grams is only a civic citation of $100. I've had more expensive speeding tickets.

Please get in touch with me ASAP cuz you are the connection I want . . . . .how the hell did you come up with 200 grams = 2 pounds?

Every time I read one of your posts I become more and more convinced that your screen name was ever so appropriate. :1orglaugh

200 grams at 29 grams per oz (rounded UP) is actually a little bit less than 7 ounces. but rounded up to 7:

7 oz * 6 bags = 42 oz / 16 (oz in a lb) = 2 lbs 10 oz

almost 3lbs, really.

doh. i just realized i misread it thinking it was 6 200 gram bags.

i are a good reader :Graucho

hehe, that's what I thought at first too, but I read another article about it and the article said it was $1000 worth of the devils weed.

cheers
