6 Worst States To Get Caught With Weed
With so much talk about the growing legalization movement, it can be easy to forget how punitive the U.S.’s anti-weed laws are. As evidence, here are the six worst states to get caught with weed.
4. Idaho
In Idaho, it’s technically illegal to be high. That means you can get busted even if you don’t have any weed or paraphernalia on you.
Efforts to reform cannabis laws in this state have so far fallen flat. Possession of less than three ounces of weed is a misdemeanor. It’s punishable by up to a year in prison and a $1,000 fine.
If you’re caught with more than three ounces, it’s a felony. And that one has a maximum sentence of five years behind bars and a $10,000 fine.
