Judge Advocates Legalization, Then Sentences Pot Dealer
"Just legalize it," said Indiana Judge John Marnocha, before sending Guy McDaniel to the slammer for a year
SOUTH BEND -- Cane in hand, 56-year-old Guy McDaniel listened as a St. Joseph County judge admitted in court that he was in favor of decriminalizing marijuana.
That admission, however, comes with limits -- one of them being 52 pounds.
In February, police arrested McDaniel at a West Washington Street home after a postal investigator reported finding something suspicious.
According to a police reports, the post office inspector contacted narcotics officers after receiving two suspicious packages en route to a South Bend home.
Officers went to the home where the packages -- addressed to a Mr. Gamage -- were supposed to be sent.
Police, who were watching the mail delivery, say McDaniel signed for two packages using a fake name.
