Roommate worrying about being an "accessory"
    #5497478 - 04/09/06 06:50 PM (18 years, 1 month ago)

I was planning on planting about 30 or so marijuana seedlings in my backyard and by june selecting the best 6 plants to grow to maturity but now my roommate is voicing concerns about his legal safety.

He doesn't smoke pot and is now telling me that he feels uncomfortable with the risk of growing the pot in the backyard.  I told him I really want to grow a few plants, nothing huge or for profits or anything but enough to keep me smoking as much as i want for as long as it lasts.

I told him that if the police ever recovered the grow I'd take full responisibility of the garden.  I want to know, could he be implicated as an accessory to the crime or what?  I don't have a police record and I live in California so I'm sure that with a good lawyer I won't even see jail time for growing a small amount of marijuana for personal use.

I need to tell him something that will sooth his fears but I need it to be accurate.  I really want a small outdoor garden this year but I can only pursue it if there is no chance that he is in any legal danger.  Anybody have anything to say about this? :eek:

if they found the plants, you'd both be arrested for them because it's likely you both knew about them. he'd have to convince a judge or jury that it is reasonable to believe he didn't know about the plants. he could get off the hook only after spending money on a lawyer, bail, possibly sitting in jail, and commiting perjury. even then it would be a tough case to make.

i got busted for growing mushrooms once. my roommate wasn't charged because the mushrooms were completely locked away in my personal space and it was perfectly reasonable that my claim that he knew nothing about them was true. they didn't even bother questioning him, much less hit him with charges. it's different with a pot grow in a shared open space.

because the search wasn't legit, they offered to drop my manufacturing charge down to possession in return for a guilty plea. i took the deal and got a year probation for that. very lucky there. i served 3 months in the county jail on a related charge though.

Grow them in a room that is yours. If you get caught say you never allowed him in the room. Don't tell anyone you are growing and you will be fine... maybe

Thanks both of you, really good information :smile:

I think it is reasonable that I confine it to my closet and not bring any of my roomies into it with me.  I would feel so bad if I insisted on the outdoor plants and was busted, making my friends sit in jail for my crime.  It'll be protocol that they don't know anything about it and I don't allow them in my room so they wouldn't know anything about it if questioned.  Thanks again.

You may want to pick up an air purifier to mask the scent if you don't want anyone to know; and put a lock on your bedroom door. Personally, I would not grow if my roommate had issues; just read some of the horror tales within this site. But I do love my bud--the question for you is how much risk will you take? LOL.

I don't mind risking my personal safety for a small amount of cannabis for personal use.  I do mind putting my friends in the line of fire against their will, that is why a locked closet is going to have to do.  I guess its gonna be tomatoes, cucumbers, lettuce, etc. in the backyard this season :smile:

they would be in the back yard of the house hes living in...him proving that he didnt know about em would be damn near impossable....they say that your innocent till proven guilty...truth is they are already convinced of your guilt before they arrest you and likely have proof of it...dont grow with that guy around...hes likely to say something to another lame friend who doesnt smoke..who will tell 10 more lamers...one of them will think its a good idea to turn you in
