Busted!

Can you site your source? I'm dealing with this first hand and you're assuming I don't live in Texas. I can hardly dissect that block of information you just posted. Where does it say 3 years per plant? How come I didn't get arrested the night of the fire? Is there any way I can plea that I was growing ruderalis being that I had no budding on the plants? Is there any way statute of limitations might come into play and I never get charged with anything? Mainly though, ******CAN THEY COME TO MY NEW RESIDENCE WITH A SEARCH WARRANT?
Drug laws vary by state. Texas has crazy ass drug laws, but there still are 49 other states with a multitude of laws (some conflicting each other). I highly doubt you'll get 3 yrs for 12 plants. In a super drug conservative state at most you'd face was a 1 day to a 1 year in jail (thats even if you go to jail which I doubt especially if you have no priors).


Most importantly they can search your home without a warrant in the case of a home fire. The most basic legal argument they could make is Danger (the fire) invites rescue (turning out the fire). Danger inviting rescue is actually a legal term. Since your home was in distress and need rescue then it's entitled to be searched to see if the fire is out and what caused it.

Also when cops bust you they weigh out the entire plant (stalk, leafs, and roots in some cases). This really fucks over a lot of people but thats really how they weigh out plants. So it doesn't mater if you have buds or not.

From Houston, not in Houston... Where I'm at, the laws are a little more lenient than anywhere else in Texas if that gives you any insight as to what city I'm in. ;)

you should ask your lawyer about your rights, and if the state can serve a warrant at ur current residence, My guess is no - without probable cause.
 
That sucks dude, with all those plants you were growing, that could be a large offense. All the times I got busted were either back in High School by parents, or a cop taking my pipe/blunt away. Good luck though.

They aren't weighing the roots, they cut the plants at the base of the stalk and from what my lawyer is telling me they let the plant completely and i mean completely dry before assessing a weight. All of those plants put together can't come out to more than an ounce dry, there's just no way. As for manufacturing, I'm in the clear on that from what I understand from my lawyer it's more a matter of weight.

There is no way I'm as bad off as all of you are implying. My lawyer is making it out to sound like I really have little to worry about, like I said, a class A or C misdemeanor. He said that I was small fish with 12 plants compared to how much they are backed up with much bigger issues. I'll let you guys all know how this pans out so we can all have some insight as to what actually happens when someone gets caught. I'll play the guinea pig... I really have no other choice. :/
Be real, listen to your lawyer, dont grow they are waiting and they want you to so they can bust you for real, and they are watching you if anything at all!! keep on you toes and watch when you buy or get your stash and that is if there is nothing else to do for them in town
