What did Michael Phelps do that was so wrong? Last I checked he was 23 years old. I don't think it is that uncommon for most people that age or around that age to try new things. Some cases may be more severe than others but smoking pot or taking a hit from a bong isn't one of them. I don't understand how people can say he ruined everything by acting like a 23-year-old.
Leon Lott, the sheriff in South Carolina were Phelps was photographed smoking pot is thinking about bringing charges against Michael Phelps. Lott is a character himself. I feel the effort that is going in to making a case against Phelps, is more of a crime itself. The sheriff doesn't want to treat him any differently because he is a celebrity. What does he think he is doing by all of the search warrants and arrests that he is making over a simple picture of someone smoking pot from a bong?
Under South Carolina law, possession of one ounce or less of marijuana is a misdemeanor that carries a fine up to $200 and 30 days in jail for the first offense. Possession of drug paraphernalia is a $500 fine. So just charge him and get it over with.
The world has other things to worry about that are way more important. Move on Leon.
