Must Be Some Dang Good Stuff
Defense attorney’s argument that a bag of marijuana uncovered during a Penn-sylvania traffic stop could have belonged to a man other than his client, has unraveled after an arresting officer recalled the suspect asking him: “Can I have my weed back?”
Nineteen-year-old Devonte Davon Jeter was one of four men in a car stopped by Midland police last year.
Jeter’s attorney argued that the marijuana could have belonged to any one of the men in the car.
But the prosecutor told the judge: “I don’t know what else ‘Can I have my weed back?’can mean, other than it’s his.”
The Beaver County Times reported that a district judge agreed with the prosecutor and ordered Jeter to stand trial on marijuana possession charges. What a bummer, man!
