Montel Needs A Lawyer!

The debate over whether marijuana should be legalized hit the news today when talk show host Montel Williams was cited for taking a marijuana pipe through security at a airport in Milwaukee. Williams suffers from multiple sclerosis and has been very vocal about his use of marijuana to ease the pain.

Mecklenburg County has hundreds of possession of drug paraphernalia cases working their way through the court system. Some believe marijuana is a gateway drug to other crimes. Some believe it should be legalized for medicinal purposes only. However, the business of marijuana is complicated.  Some people believe for the sake of economical efficiency, it should be legalized.

One thing is clear- drug cases are rarely straightforward. Each case is different, every person has a story. Before a person goes to court on a drug paraphernalia case or marijuana possession case, they should speak to a criminal defense attorney.
