As a matter of fact I do. What he was charged with is a second degree felony. The law that you are wanting to know about is Possession with the intent to distribute. Without any scales, packaging material, or some type of delivery list I think it will be hard to pursue the intent charge. Eventhough we all know his intention was to sell it around Austin. Although 5lbs is a hell of a lot for personal use. The DA may just go for it! I hope that helps you out. :thumbsDoes anyone in Texas know what the laws of possession and possession with intent is. I am sure it is well below 5lbs. But every thing is big in texass.

Interesting - most states have laws that presume intent to distribute when the amount is in excess of "personal use". Could that be the case here?As a matter of fact I do.

Yea, around here in CO if you've got more than 2oz you get intent to distribute. I'd never heard anything about having to have scales or any other paraphanalia.Interesting - most states have laws that presume intent to distribute when the amount is in excess of "personal use".
