Would you charge a victim of robbery, assault for possession of pot?
Location:
8200 Camino Media,
Bakersfield, CA
Recently we reported that the Bakersfield Police Department was looking for two men suspected of being part of a trio that assaulted and robbed a man and his roommates Monday while at the victim’s apartments. One was arrested. –– Jorge Barrientos, Californian staff writer jbarrientos@bakersfield.com

"Those mean boys stole my dope when I invited them into my apartment." Another poster child for going to school and getting a job. posted by

Wow... as I sat here reading Oldblue56's comment, I paused, finding myself in the midst of a classic Kubler-Ross grief cycle. Shock - I couldn't believe he posted a rational comment without insulting someone Denial - I checked several times to be sure it was really him Anger - how dare he toy with my emotions like this! Bargaining - Maybe he was ill or having an off day Depression - realization that all I had assumed could be wrong Testing - I decided to laud him publicly and hope for his continued reticence Acceptance - The realization set in that maybe he had mellowed and I would have to live with a new, improved Oldblue
The credit crisis, housing bubble, rampant inflation, and now this... Is there no end to the horror? posted by

That is probably one reason they robbed him. He asked to be a victim posted by

Jorge, let me ask you some questions... Does the "victim" get his marijuana legally, from a legitimate provider? Does he legally grow it himself? How much marijuana was stolen? Was it less than an ounce? How would the DA prove the "victim" possessed marijuana if all the "evidence" was stolen? (His admission alone won't cut it). Inquiring minds want to know. posted by

If he had a 215 [?] medical card he should report the theft. If not he should just eat the loss and shut up. The San Luis SO was forced to return another legal pot users marijuana yesterday. I think it has happened in Kern County before also.
