escobar, you sound like a winner.
GO back to micro-stakes DDY.
I got caught with somewhere near 250,000X more than dude did, he went to prison and I was chillin at home.. Id say I came out ahead there... I am simply saying, he got GUTTED and any lawyer would have fought that.... Especially given the circumstances around the arrest.. Horrible Horrible beat.. He literally went to prison for a few dollars worth of GHB.. FWIW, most GHB, when actually broken down is GBL or similar compunds, which is MUCH more difficult to prosecute as it isnt technically scheduled ( or at least wasnt).. It looks like him and lawyer just threw their arms up in the air and said UNCLE.. I have never in my life heard of anyone going to prison for simple possession of GBL... I used to be in the bodybuilding " industry" and know of AT Least 40 people that got caught receiving shipments of GBL and GHB from U.K.. They were sent in quarts ( not like this guys 2-3 doses), and recieved from UK, so importation laws were violated too.. I think of the 40 or so people that I know who got caught, like 1 of them went to prison, and when he got raided the found an UG anabolic steroid lab.. He did like 8 months, and probably had somewhere around 2-3 million in anabolic raw materials in his house..
How you can manage to go to prison for a couple bucks in what MAY have been GHB without fighting it is beyond me... Thats remarkable... It doesnt really surprise me though, pretty much everyone pees their pants any time a cop is involved... They are always looking to " make a deal" or snitch on people..
Sorry you had to endure prison for something so petty, but your lawyer shgould have his license revoked.
come on man... do you not think I tried everything possible to get out of doing time? Do you really think I threw my hands up and gave up? You don't know me very well if you think that. I am not the type to ever give up.
I'm not some poor schmuck stuck with a public defender. My family and I had the resources to throw at this. I didn't just blindly follow my lawyer. When things seemed to be going bad, we used other lawyers and got their opinions. We used family connections to state political leaders. I contacted various public policy groups that protect against arbitrary sentences and unfair treatment to drug users.
In other words, I did everything possible. I got caught in a bad situation.
Who said I had 2-3 doses on me? I was caught with an awful lot...something over 50 doses. It was definitely GHB as they were able to confiscate my supply and have it tested in labs.
I was incorrectly labeled a 'date raper.' I did everything to inform the state's attorney about the anture of my intent. I was seen to use it by myself. I was not around women when busted. I sent news articles on the GHB scene in Champaign-Urbana according which should its popularity as a recreational drug.
I'm confused how you could think that I didn't fight it. The prosecution got quite pissed about how much heat and questions they were taking over my case from different sources. Someone got the 'date raper' idea and they wouldn't let up. Maybe if they thought I was just a meathead, steroid user, results would've been different.
I assumed you would know enough about the criminal justice system to realize how much sentences depend upon the local county and state prosecutors. As I said earlier, if I was caught in Cook County (Chicago), it is highly unlikely I would've done any time.
