    Unhappy 2.5 Pound Felony Marijuana Charge In Tennessee

    My daughter was placed on deferred probation for two years in TN for 2 1/2 lbs. of marijuana. She was arrested at age 19. I then found out her boyfriend whom I thought was 23 was actually 35 whom she loved so she took the rap for. She recently failed her last drug screen and is incarcerated until her March 3rd court date. Are there any circumstances that they would let her out? The felony was to be taken off her record if she completed the two year probation with no problems. Will we ever be able to get the felony off her record after the violation of probation?

    Chances are no to both questions. She violated the terms of the agreement/bargin when she failed the urine test. Also, please explain to me how she "took the wrap " for someone yet if she were innocent popped a pee test? She was explained the entire deal when she took it and it is likely that this felony will follow her around for her entire life. Let her lawyer do his/her job.

    Busting a pee test (or hair test or blood test) is more than enough to foul up the rest of her life; she should have known better. It is likely the prosecutor knew she was taking a rap for someone and that was the only reason that they let her have probation. You see, a 2.5 bale, most likely a "kilo" that absorbed some moisture or had someone with a crappy scale, is a HUGE PWISD charge and generally carries 2-5 years in State prison. Someone was trying to give her a chance and she f-ed it up.

    If she has a decent Probation Officer and he/she is into rehab moreso than punishment and your daugther is attractive (sorry...I spent enought time around the CJ system as a student. Judges and POs and police tend to be easier on attractive people) then she may have a fighting chance. If she is found in violation then she will likely see court and several more years inside a jail and on Felony probation.

    She was dumb enough to that the rap, so she is the one that did the crime and has to do the time. It happens frequently to young kids as they are manipulated by these "master manipulators" who do anything they can do destroy society by selling drugs.
