Stinky you have to look at Cede's reflection.....what exactly is he saying? "I'm better than you because I don't judge this other guy."
What kind of ridiculous statement is that?

i DO love this statement......"you were growing as responsibly as your situation would allow." What a hoot!
PS...I was driving as responsibly as my drunkenness would allow.??!!? :S2:
If I get busted at my outdoor grow because I get lazy and pick a spot in open view... I sure as hell would not expect my seed dealer to step up and say, "I sold him the seeds, please punish me along with him." It doesn't matter if the dealer was essential and that I wouldn't have been able to grow without his help. If I was an idiot and got caught, then that is my problem and mine alone. This whole "sure it may be legally fine... but the morally good thing to do would be to accept responsibility" is bull. She got caught growing because she was being stupid and disrespectful while taking care of the plants. She shouldn't even be charged with anything illegal besides perhaps a noise ordinance violation. Much less should bijnas be charged with cultivation along with her.
The moral thing to do is to thank God, or whoever you're thankful to, that our brother is not in jail right now. And say a prayer for this girl while your at it.
Bijnas has learned his lesson. I guarantee this will never happen to him again. There is no need to grind on him any further.
I do however have a right to disagree....this IS an open forum if you recall.
I REALLY love the statement in my sig from Stinky.....
Your deeds show your character.
Enough said from me.
Ps...If you are growing the seeds FOR the dealer.....I'd consider it more of an analogy.
I was surprised no one brought up High Times list of attorneys in the start of this thread.Of course dudes from Netherlands so all of his probably are.
And would it not be cool to post one of those attorneys here for furture ref. if someone needed one?
This is certainly a fascinating topic. I agree to some degree on both parts of the issue, it certainly is a difficult situation. As for my two cents, there's not much else he can do. Philosphically speaking, he could go to the police and claim "fault" for the whole situation. But who's fault was it truly that the place became a pig-pen? You could say the girl because she obviously fucked up. You could say he was because he was growing in the first place. At that point you could blame the dealer or seed bank for selling the seeds. It could potentially go on and on i.e. The Blame Game. But in this world where (unfortunately) ethics and morality don't necessarily apply for success (especially in legal situations), what else could be done? By coming forth to the cops nothing would change from a legal sense except that you too might be charged. She certainly wouldn't have the charges dropped, and isn't that the whole point of you coming forward in the first place? To rectify the situation? Blame our legal system for its lack of injustice at that point then. To make a long story short, keep it greasy so she goes down easy next time.
I'd like to note that Bijnas has responded to this thread with great dignity and restraint, considering the inflammatory nature of some posts.
I think yer gonna be all right, kiddo. Good luck.
didnt read all posts.... sorry
Don't get me wrong, I respect your opinion and you have every right to air it. I'm just saying if you don't want to risk being punished for growing plants that belong to your friend, then don't agree to grow for your friend while he is away. Whether or not bijnas gets punished along with her is irrelevant to that point... in my personal opinion. Better one to suffer unjust punishment then two.

Loud noise, not responding to the neighbor, smoking it up while being a big enough nuisance that the cops are going to get called..Letting them in the door..
I'd be more than a little upset at her, and at my friend for breaking my trust and partying it up at my place, that's terribly disrespectful. That person's friend status would definitely be in doubt, and trust broken.
That said, kids will be kids and will do stupid things, and helping the girl out with her legal bills if he can might not be out of the question either.
