It's not like that in Boone County.

What's the rap in Boone Co. for well over an oz.? It was recently updated to.

MO State law as of Jan 1, 2017

The possession of paraphernalia is a misdemeanor which is punishable by a fine of $500 for a first offense. A second offense is punishable a maximum sentence of 1 year imprisonment and a maximum fine of $2,000.

Possession of up to ten grams for first-time offenders is Class D misdemeanor, punishable by a maximum fine of $500, but no jail time.

Possession of over 10 grams but less than 35 grams is a Class A misdemeanor which is punishable by a maximum sentence of 1 year imprisonment and a maximum fine of $2,000. Second-time marijuana possession offenses are also classified as a Class A misdemeanor offense, even if the quantity possessed is under 10 grams.

Possession of 35 grams- 30 kilograms* is a Class D felony which is punishable by up to 7 years imprisonment and a maximum fine of $10,000.

*Depending on facts, possession of more than 35g, but less than 30kg, has often, historically, been charged as intent to distribute. Same as Distribution penalties below.

Municipal court, Columbia, MO**It was recently updated to.

Sec. 16-253. – Possession of thirty-five grams or less of marijuana, or five grams or less of hashish.

It shall be unlawful for any person to possess thirty-five (35) grams or less of marijuana or cannibis in any species or form thereof, including but not limited to cannibis sativa L., or five (5) grams or less of hashish. Any person found guilty of violating the provisions of this section shall be deemed guilty of a Class A misdemeanor.

(b) When any law enforcement officer suspects any adult as defined by state criminal statutes, other than those excluded herein, of possession of a misdemeanor amount of marijuana and/or possession of marijuana paraphernalia, that person shall not be required to post bond, suffer arrest, be taken into custody for any purpose nor detained for any reason other than the issuance of a summons, suffer incarceration, suffer loss of driver’s license, or any other punishment or penalty other than the issuance of a summons and, if found guilty, a fine of up to two hundred fifty dollars ($250.00). There shall be a strong presumption that the proper disposition of any such case is to suspend the imposition of sentence and/or require community service work and/or drug counseling and education. All such matters shall only be referred to the municipal prosecuting attorney, and no other prosecuting attorney, and the municipal prosecuting attorney shall not refer the matter to any other prosecutor, agency, or office, unless provisions of subsection (c) are applicable.

(c) Subsection (b) shall not apply to persons:

(1) Who have been found guilty of a felony within the preceding ten (10) years; or

(2) Who have been found guilty in a state court of a Class A misdemeanor, other than misdemeanor marijuana possession or misdemeanor possession of marijuana paraphernalia, within the preceding five (5) years; or

(3) Who have been found guilty in a state or municipal court of misdemeanor marijuana possession on two or more prior occasions within the preceding five (5) years; or

(4) Who are arrested on suspicion of any felony or misdemeanor offense chargeable only under state law, arising from the same set of facts and circumstances as the alleged marijuana offense.

(d) The provisions of this section are severable. If any provision of this section is declared invalid, that invalidity shall not affect other provisions of the section which can be given effect without the invalid provision.

(e) Any city ordinance or regulation that is inconsistent with this section shall be null and void and is hereby repealed effective immediately.

(f) The message of this section is that people should not use marijuana, but should also not lose opportunities for education and employment because of such use. The limited resources of law enforcement should be directed primarily toward crimes of violence or property loss. The enforcement of laws against marijuana shall be among the lower priorities of law enforcement.

Depends.

Me?

A ticket. $275.

If I even get written up.

Now, if someone owns a local coffee shop, and had FedEx delivering hundreds of lbs at a time to the front door of their house...and then hang their son out to dry...they may get held w/o bond because of the dual citizenship in Jordan. Oh, and it turns out that someone was a chomo ("pederast"), and it's gonna be the long walk up. Dude is probably gonna get the Full Monty. It's even worse than I described, but dude ****ed up. Hes definitely not a native son of the good ol' boys' club...

So, there's a lot to say about who you are, where you're from, and what your intentions are.

In Lafayette County, they're so downtrodden, money talks in Lexington. A couple ozs = a couple thousand $$ + court costs and legal fees.

A dollar bill weighs just less than a gram...

A ticket. $275. Not outside city limits, in District Court the City of Columbia rules don't apply. So Arrest, no ticket, paraphernalia? another crime, date with judge where your lawyer makes sure you don't get a sales charge or felony and you're saying $250 because you're a good ole boy?

You might get it out of a criminal charge by agreeing to an SIS "once" by paying out the ass but even as a good old boy i'd say a year pissing, and $1000 fine sounds more like it. After that you are exempt from Columbia's exclusions so a joint is possible jail time in city limits.....Inside the city you may still get a criminal charge the PA would certainly plea bargain down, but I bet you're still peeing.

Up to 10g (first offense) Misdemeanor None $ 500
Up to 10g (second offense) Misdemeanor 1 year $ 2,000
More than 10g - 35 g Misdemeanor 1 year $ 2,000
More than 35 g - 30 kg Felony 7 years $ 10,000
Possession of more than 35g, but less than 30kg, has often, historically, been charged as intent to distribute.

If I even get written up.

Say bye bye to the DL too...

Persons 21 and over will have driving privilege revoked for one year if found in violation of possession or use of controlled substance while operating a motor vehicle.

Now, if someone owns a local coffee shop, and had FedEx delivering hundreds of lbs at a time to the front door of their house...and then hang their son out to dry...they may get held w/o bond because of the dual citizenship in Jordan. Oh, and it turns out that someone was a chomo ("pederast"), and it's gonna be the long walk up. Dude is probably gonna get the Full Monty. It's even worse than I described, but dude ****ed up. Hes definitely not a native son of the good ol' boys' club...

So, there's a lot to say about who you are, where you're from, and what your intentions are. I think past 35 grams your intentions are automatic,

In Lafayette County, they're so downtrodden, money talks in Lexington. A couple ozs = a couple thousand $$ + court costs and legal fees. And Probation, public service

Ya when I see MO elected officials not enforcing MO laws on pot...

PS It took 3 years to decriminalize pot, If it were not for MU the Columbia laws would have never been written.

Pretty funny reading this thread.

Pretty much every person asking why its a big deal because it was weed would be fired from their own job for testing hot for weed.

Look I dont really get why weed is still illegal but what I do understand is the actual law and the rules.

Just like Harris does.

One thing in CoMo is that University Police are actually classified as State Police. If a University officer pops ya it is a different story.

Most people would also be fired from their job if they continuously failed at the primary task required to do their job... in No-Hands Harris' situation catching a football.

This situation reminds me of a Louis CK monologue on Saturday Night Live a while back. He was talking about pedophiles, and he said something like, "Can you imagine how good it must be, if you're willing to risk everything for it? You're willing to risk prison time, your reputation, your livelihood. Pedophilia must be amazingly good for those people."

(That skit caused a bit of controversy, by the way.)

That must be the case with these football players. Marijuana must be amazing to them if they're willing to risk an entire lifetime of financial security, plus fame, just to smoke joints.

It's more about antiquated laws and pharmaceutical lobby money than the scary "Marijuana".

Fact check; One thing in CoMo is that University Police are actually classified as State Police.

Quote:

University police officers have jurisdiction on property the University owns, leases, or otherwise controls. Jurisdiction also includes city streets running through and adjacent to campus properties. Additionally, all University police officers are commissioned by the City of Columbia and Boone County.

THE NFL ~~DRUG~~ POLICE?

Unless there are photos and/ or arrest records it doesn't happen in the NFL. Harris has already completed his drug therapy and the jail time before it was reported. If he would have received a SIS, Which I can't understand why he did not, we may have never found out about it. The NFL didn't come forward, I don't know if they knew or not.

They don't publish who was tested and when, nor do they publish the results unless action is taken.Then maybe nor even then.
