Pot Makes You Stupid, Vol. 2

In another example of dumb stoner action, the Charleston Gazette brings you the story of Daricus Holliday. The young Mr. Holliday was called to the Kanawha County judicial annex to bail out a friend who had been arrested. Mr. Holliday did what any right thinking person does when the go to the courthouse - he took his weed with him. Once he saw the metal detector, he casually turned around, walked back out of the annex and tossed his weed into the bushes. The bad news - the deputy working the metal detector saw the whole thing. Mr. Holliday ended up arrested himself.

The truly stupid part of this, however, is that the weed in question was a whopping 17 grams of pot. Yet, Mr. Holliday is set to be prosecuted for felony delivery of a controlled substance. What a find use of police resources in the age of terrorism.
