thanks for your moronical paranoid conjecture based on nothing but your own craziness. here are more facts which i like better than moron opinions.Get fucking real the kid got lucky. His age was about 19 at the time and was a mitigating factor also was he the one that was in possession of the gun? Did he snitch on the other guys involved or agree to testify? Whose weed was it? Was the sale completed? Did he have a high dollar lawyer etc etc etc etc. I believe it turned out to be less than 4 pounds as well which is a much lesser charge. What is the sentence or what will it be for the other 3 involved ?
Reality check there are thousands of people in prison in AZ over weed and to say this is how it usually turns out for large amounts is just naive.
