hi im england, since i cant find any weed, my friend got desperate and started asking around on the net, some guy said he was in the area, so he goes and trys to buy some off him but gets arrested. UK isnt as strict with MJ as USA though, he might just be let off or given a fine, What do you reckon is gonna happen to him?
oh, when I read the title I thought this was going to be about your friend bribing a cop... and I have no idea what your friend will get.
^thats what i thought. lol I don't know anything about English law, but if weed laws are less strict there I'd guess just a fine...but I really have no idea.
How old is he? Because the laws are against possession (thou this was obviously attempted possession or w/e) or supply. And if it was a small amount, (like it was), he'll get an official caution if he's over 18. Under 18 they'll rope in his parents and try and shame him then give him an official caution. It'll go down on his record for a few years tho I think.
this is illegal, its in the difference between us and uk laws, if it was a cop, they arent legally allowed to sell it to him, if they did, its illegal, and if he didnt, he didnt buy pot, so they cant do him on possestion its like that to catch a predator thing which gets people over in the us, but here it wouldnt work as the models are 18, ya see?
He won't get a caution unless he's been caught shitloads of times before... Even then, when the Police offer you a caution you can refuse to sign it and then the Crown Prosecution Service will decide whether taking the case to court is in the public interest. If it's only a small amount then chances are the CPS won't bother prosecuting you and the case will be thrown out. I'm not so aware of the law concerning under 18s but the same rule applies to the caution.. Is trying to buy actually a crime? I know selling someone a bag of oregano claiming it to be herb is but when you're asking then what crime would he be charged for? Attempted possession? That can't exist, surely?
