Re: Breaking: Marijuana accidentally made legal in Texas

If we are reading it correctly, it could result in criminal possession charges for small amounts of marijuana to be a thing of the past. I imagine on larger quantities that are considered distribution they will have to pay the money for testing concentration levels.

Re: Breaking: Marijuana accidentally made legal in Texas

I am not a lawyer but I believe the purity can matter on a federal level charge.

I hope that I am wrong, but the way I read it is that someone could be arrested for having a kilogram of Italian Seasoning that had a
few grams of marijuana mixed in with it because the test would show "positive" for THC, but couldn't tell how much. :headscratch
Funny thing is that they are only required to test a part(very small) sample of the marijuana, so if they happen to get a sample of the actual marijuana for the test, it sounds like the entire amount is assumed to be the proper concentration?

That was how it has been. It still is for all other illegal drugs. Purity has never been the issue. For instance a person arrested for having a one pound container of talcum powder with a minute amount of actual cocaine in it would be charged with possession of one pound of cocaine.

It reads like the actual concentration of THC in the hemp now has to be tested in a marijuana arrest.
