Cebu City – Because of a mere stick of weed and two grams of dried marijuana leaves, a retired Philippine Navy serviceman will lose 13 years of freedom after he was found guilty of possessing such illegal substances.
Regional Trial Court (RTC) Judge Meinrado Paredes meted the penalty of 13 years imprisonment to Jerry Loseo, 46, for possessing a stick of marijuana weighing a mere 0.10 grams and dried marijuana leaves weighing 2.11 grams in 2006. On March 7, 2006, Loseo’s vehicle was stopped along Manalili Street for speeding off despite the red light. A police patrol car tried to flag down Loseo but he continued to speed off towards Juan Luna Street where he was finally pulled over. When traffic police asked for Loseo’s driver’s license, a stick of marijuana was found inserted into the plastic packet bearing his driver’s license. Also, while being body-searched, police recovered dried marijuana leaves placed in a pack of cigarettes inside his pocket. Loseo confirmed that he was stopped by the police but alleged that he was arrested after the police officers failed to apprehend the person they were actually chasing. However, the court said it cannot lend credence to his testimony because it was vague and uncorroborated. http://www.420magazine.com/forums/in...marijuana.html |
