maybe we can finally grow up and end prohibition
How dare they enforce the laws they were sworn to uphold!
Good luck proving what was in it.
What a waste of time and money, they should all be fired
Love the ironic twist of having an ad for – ahem! – glass smoking implements right along-side this post.
I wish Michael Phelps had just denied it. You can’t tell it’s him in that photo.
Ha ha ha, can’t wait for the mugshot
Darn this elected county sheriff – he should just relax and let opponents in the next election claim he’s soft on celebrities while jailing the weed-smoking poor. Golly, how evil if he’s covering his behind, positioning himself as “considering it” before deciding not to file. How come politics is so complicated? Geez looweez.
The article calls it a “marijuana pipe.” Lolz. Is that some kind of old-fashioney AP style thing?
Total jerks.
Bet they can’t even swim and all the donuts went to their waists …
South Carolina is a coastal state. They better arrest him quick or he’ll get to the ocean and they’ll never catch him!
LOL sean!
They can never make it stick and they know it, they just want to make his life hell for a little while so they can hold it up as an example to all the young’uns.
Coming from where? South Carolina? Disregard.
the fact that the photo was taken by a jealous ass whose girlfriend was paying a little too much attention to phelps at a party makes me sick. and way to get your fifteen sheriff. wow. 2009. bin laden still free. gold medal golden boy might get charged in a no harm, no foul party incident because of douche bag whose girl was star stuck. of course, in the elvis movies, the guy would have the sack to confront elvis to his face. this weasel is sneaking around with this camera phone (i’ll show him and make a buck too) “and i’m proud to be an american, where at least i know i’m free…”
No District Attorney who actually passed a bar exam would take this case based on that photo. Doing so would be possible grounds for disbarment. They’ve probably already told the sheriff the same thing.
They’re trying to teach young people that if you smoke pot, OMG WE WILL CATCH YOU AND YOU WILL PAY!
