Marijuana doesn’t kill people.

It was open
just in case you forgot: this is one of many https://jocoreport.com/sexual-assault-suspect-facing-16-felony-charges/
Why are large amounts always seized at a check point or traffic stop?

Mary White…It could have been! If I need your opinion, I will ask. If you don’t like my comments, stop reading them.
Imagine assuming someone is illegal only to find out they are just as LEGAL as you?! Why are people in Johnston County so ignorant when it comes to assumptions. Not only is he completely legal, he most likely has a better job, nicer house and higher credit score than most. Stop being ugly to people and use that energy to make JoCo a better place!
