Marshall football player arrested following drug raid
A running back for the Marshall University football team was arrested Friday after a search warrant was executed and drugs were found at a home in Huntington.
Marshall could have one hell of a prison team.
Huntington will be a much nicer, safer place with all this dangerous marijuana off the streets
That’s what the WSAZ article said. If anything else was there they’d make note of it.
Because that fixes it. So you're fine with him doing this then. You're only problem is that it's illegal. Legalizing drugs would not end the drug trade or the violence involved.
Don't know that he is involved in more, but you can guarantee the people he's involved with are.
No. He was also in possession of a few pounds of weed and 21k. This wasn't him just telling someone where they can get hooked up.
Who got hurt?
Nobody said anything about "legalizing drugs".
Man got setup.
WV: early on gambling.. late on the weed.
My guess is Knowledge would still not have the proper permits.
Still in jail.....for breaking the law.
We need to hire Bobby to run what was once the greatest work release program in all of college football and also one of the winningest in the 90’s...
We were just ahead of our time. It's all legal now.
This doesn’t appear to be a “couple of ounces” operation.
I get that. My point is it's a non violent crime.
Why lock somebody up and burn resources?
I don't know what the bond is. Assume it's high or the kid would be free.
Like it or not it’s still a crime. Was he your dealer? Is that why you’re so upset?
I'm not upset. Just find it an interesting part of the story.
High risk behavior has consequences.
"McDaniel, 20, was held on a $50,000 bond, per Courtney Hessler of the Herald Dispatch."
vs
Stew Butler being held on $10K bond for two counts of battery.

Then there’s obviously more to the story that we aren’t privy too.
Weren't Butler's charges misdemeanors? I know he was convicted of misdemeanors but I can't remember his initial charges.
I know McDaniel is charged with a felony.
I think they were.
Was just pointing out violent crime vs non.
And I know people don't differentiate but if it was only weed, that should matter.
5X bond seems steep between those crimes.
You punch somebody unprovoked in the street.
He's out so good for him. Hope he gets good legal support.
I'm all for de-criminalizing weed but the fact is even in places like Virginia (where I live) the amount of weed Knowledge had would be a felony. There will always have to be a line drawn in the sand somewhere; even when retailers can sell marijuana to the public.
There are ways to not get in trouble for drug crimes and they wouldn’t waste their life
Recreational is one thing, possession of several pounds and 21k in cash is a distributor. I agree with others, drug possession compared to other violent crimes shouldn't necessarily mandate prison time. Confiscate the weed and cash and send him on his way. Hopefully lesson learned.

Calling this non-violent is a little nonsensical. The majority of shootings in this country, the majority of property crimes in this country, have their basis in drugs of one form or another. Drugs, including lowly weed, are a high income business. Rival distributors fight for turf, supply, etc.
The people he would have been involved with weren't good people. He was involved with them. Remember the prom kids that got murdered around Charleston Avenue back around 2003? Drug traffickers are violet people with zero regard for human life.
Doesn't matter how you feel about it. It's the law. I don't pity him at all. He knew what he was doing and still did it.

Also legalizing drugs isn't going to fix the addiction/homeless problem. Making it legal doesn't change anything other than providing zero deterrent for cartels to run.
When I walk through downtown Charleston everyday for lunch and see the countless addicts spaced out like zombies or yelling at the air the last thing I think is man if only drugs were legal. If only these people had more clean needles.
