My first felony was in 1996 for controlled substance and been cleaned for 15 years and good life... Went through tough times a divorce and forclosure and lost job...so i had a pipe and 4 grams of THC to relax, and went to bar for a drink, somebody dragged my truck in the road, police show up take my truck search it found 4 grams of pot and pipe. And now i have a misdemeanor for pipe and the state of Wisconsin is slapping me with a 2nd offense felony for possession of 4 grams of THC with a felony. Date was march of 2011......wow that's a little harsh....im not a dealer or substance abuser...lol
