If you are visiting from out-of-State, it’s important to know that marijuana and other forms of THC are illegal, even for those with out-of-state prescriptions for medical use. A first-time offender could face up to 180 days in jail for possession marijuana. If you are arrested for possession of marijuana, it’s important to retain an experienced criminal attorney. In some circumstances, a person arrested for possession of marijuana can avoid a conviction.
When massive crowds assemble for events like the Gathering of the Juggalos, one of the most effective methods police have for making contact with and investigating individuals is through traffic stops. By checking to make sure that all of your headlights and taillights are functioning, that your license plate is valid and hanging horizontally, and that you obey the speed limits, you’ll avoid the dozens of police officers that will be patrolling state highways between Bedford and Bloomington. Traffic stops often lead to claims that officers smell marijuana, which results in searches of vehicles and passengers. An infraction traffic stop can also lead to an OWI – DUI investigation.
