I'm not exactly sure where Potter County is (and I don't really care enough to search The Google) but a very old defendant accused of marijuana possession was found
not guilty this week. Not because it wasn't proven that he possessed the plant (that grows naturally out of God's earth) - he did. Instead, the judge allowed the jury whether to consider the defense of (medical) necessity.
They did. He walked after eleven minutes of deliberations.
The state prosecutors are
upset.
It's probably more of a case of a jury not caring about marijuana possession and looking for an excuse to tell the State to quit wasting their time.
