Willie gets off for $100 and a song-Blue Eyes Crying in the Rain

How's that for a thread title?

Willie Nelson had to pay $100 fine-$178 in Court Costs and had to sing the song Blue Eyes Crying in the Rain for his arrest on 6.24 oz of pot (including the container).

Awesome...

County Attorney Kit Bramblett said this week. “You bet your ass I ain’t gonna be mean to Willie Nelson.”

The 6.24 ounces that was found when Willie was arrested is above the amount Bramblett can handle in his jurisdiction. Well, no problem. “Between me and the sheriff, we threw out enough of it or smoked enough so that there’s only three ounces, which is within my jurisdiction,” Bramblett said

 

wise people there ... the devil reserves a special place in hell for anyone who isn't lovely to Willie

and they scored a free live performance

 

beautiful! it makes me want to weep.

 

they shouldnt have hassled him in the first

 

True- but making a mockery of the marijuana laws from the bench is a nice way of balancing things.

 

I love it.
