Cannabis teen ordered to write essay
    #7558846 - 10/25/07 11:32 AM (16 years, 3 months ago)

A Hastings teenager caught carrying cannabis seedlings has been ordered to write an essay on the harm from drugs.

Lawrence Zappa Watkins, 17, was told by Judge Bridget Mackintosh in Napier District Court yesterday that he will be discharged without conviction if he writes the essay and completes 50 hours' community work.

Watkins, unemployed, was arrested on October 19 in Napier carrying two icecream containers holding 24 cannabis seedlings.

He pleaded guilty yesterday to a charge of possessing cannabis.

Judge Mackintosh gave him till December 14 to write the essay and complete the community work.

Speaking at his home later in the day, Watkins said he was grateful to the judge and planned to write a letter of thanks as well.

"My uncle Kevin who was in court said I was really lucky. He couldn't believe it. He said: `That essay won't be just a few lines. You've got to make it a proper essay'."

Watkins thought he would write about a page. "I've got my nana, my uncle and my dad who will help me write it. I've done essays at school, so it'll be okay," he said.

He vowed never to touch cannabis again. "It happens whenever I'm drunk. I'm easily influenced. When I'm drunk, I'm stupid."

Watkins plans to start a forestry course in Hastings next year and save to travel.

"I want to go to Ibiza. That's the first place I'll go. My family are real party people. We love our music and that sounds like my sort of place."

He knows the temptation to take drugs on the Mediterranean tourist island may be strong, but said he won't be swayed.

"I'm going to make sure I don't do it again. I don't want to be up in court again. When I was standing there I was shaking. It's not a nice place."

It pisses me off that the authority figures are making him write an essay on why drugs are bad, where as that may not be his personal belief. They're forcing beliefs on him and grr I want to kill someone!!

He should do an essay on the harm caused by cannabis prohibition. Except the judge would probably lock him up and throw away the key for showing such intelligence, I mean, impudence.

Happy trails,

he is only 17 though haha...give him a break


he does look high in that picture, and im sure he just said all that stuff to get it over with as well.

thats awesome he only plans on writing a page. id have that shit done in like 10 minutes!

50 hours community service sucks balls though. hopefully he can get those hours in someplace chill.

guarantee he'll do community service high. All of my mates that have done it have ended up with better drug connections and spend the whole 9 hours a day stoned off their nut fucking around.

Fucking pigs. :crankey:

He vowed never to touch cannabis again. "It happens whenever I'm drunk. I'm easily influenced. When I'm drunk, I'm stupid."

Does anyone see anything wrong with this?

I'm in need of a sterile sporeprint, if anyone wants to do a trade for some seeds or something, or maybe just for free if you have a lot of them............. i'd really appreciate it :mushroom2:

And the problem with this is that few people see this.
