Man Swallows Marijuana During Stop-n-Search

July 6, 2012

In Magistrates Court this morning [July 6], Yikunno Goater, 29, pleaded guilty to obstructing police on 25th May 2012 during a routine Police stop-n-search operation.

Carrington Mahoney, for the Crown, told Senior Magistrate Archie Warner that Mr Goater and others had been in a car. On stopping the car, and once the windows had been rolled down, Police noticed a strong smell typical of marijuana being smoked.

During the initial questioning of the car’s occupants, Police observed Mr Goater take a small plastic bag, empty it into his mouth and then swallow the contents. Police noted that the contents appeared to be plant material.

Asked what he had just ingested, Mr Goater replied: “Marijuana”. Asked to open his mouth, he did so and Police saw traces of plant material still in his mouth. Mr Goater was arrested for obstructing the Police.

The Senior Magistrate fined Mr Goater $800.

    Smart man. Would have gotten fined more if they had the weight.

      Maybe you think he is a smart man…but a smarter man does not smoke the crap! Keep getting high, hanging out with the same crew, and naking drugs and alcohol a priority, and one day you too will be bitter and wondering why many of those around you have moved on to do bigger and better things while you have been left behind.

      Hey but you will still have ya boys, …ya bredrins with you! Don’t worry, have a little herb superb and everythiong will be alright! Or so the drug dealers and addicted ones will have you believe. Be stronger then they are. The stronger dealers RELY on the addictions of the weak. Oh, and when someone tells you , GOD made herb and its natural so it must be good for you, tell them to smoke poison ivy if they really feel that way.

      I hope you learned a lesson from this and I hope that you have apologized to your family for the embarrassement. I hope you learn from your mistakes, but I also hope going forward you will start learning from the mistakes of others instead of your own.

        im atheist, i dont believe god made anything..but lets put it into perspective..WHY THE F WOULD ANYONE SMOKE POISON IVY..we’ve known for thousands of years the usages and near zero health consequences of marijuana, and we’ve known the annoying pain that is associated with Poison Ivy..your argument is totally illogical and stupid.

          Brosive – I do not condone the use of marijuana but to call this guy smart are you serious?!!

          He had already ingested the evidence. The police could not prove in a court what he had ingested. And yet the idiot when asked by the police what he had ate answers “Marijuana”. He could have answered anything but that. He could have even said “nothing the bag was empty”!

          And they call it the weed of wisdom. I hope you don’t consider yourself as “smart” as this man.

    $800 fine with no evidence is the crime.

    • Michael says:

      Fine with no evidence is the result of stupidity

  4. Keepin' It Real.....4Real!! says:

    OMG!!!! is the boy still alive after ingesting such a poisonous plant….i sure hope he will survive …..

    • Tommy Chong says:

      LMAO! Depending on how much he ate he must have been feeling some sort of buzz in the jail cell. I remember overindulging the space cake & thinking I would never see another day till I realized I wasn’t really dying just tripping my pair off.

    • What Next says:

        I think he/she was being sarcastic.

  5. WOLF says:

    1. Don’t smoke in your car
    2. Don’t drive the car you smoke in
    3. Don’t be retarded

    • More with less says:

      Agree with you. I am all for legalization, but if you smoke, smoke responsibly.

      • QStreet says:

        I don’t agree with Legalizing it, but I would like to see it decriminalized. I hate seeing young lives ruined because they made a mistake to two.

  11. STAY FOCUSED says:

    come on peeps.maybe if those who are getting caught with de herbs would use it in a more responsable way.like in the comfort of your own space.
    that would be one hurdle legalization wouldnt have too face.
    not sayin what the brutha did was wrong,just wish people would take a moment and think first.
    im just sayin.

    • will says:

      im with you on that one, legalisation will never happen until we have appropriate and responsible use.

  12. Lol says:

    Alot of ppl here lack intellect. People Like Q street. You are so caught up in the systems lies. There is no proof that weed kills your brain cells . There IS proof that it stimulates them. U sound like u believe everything the government tells you. WHO R U TO JUDGE SOMEONE FOR SMOKING WEED? “but a smarter man does not smoke the crap! Keep getting high, hanging out with the same crew, and naking drugs and alcohol a priority, and one day you too will be bitter and wondering why many of those around you have moved on to do bigger and better things while you have been left behind.” ?!!!??? Really? i mean r u serious? Come outside please and stop wasting your life behind your PC judging people. Nobody mentioned anything about alcohol. Funny how a government official strictly opposed weed until his son was diagnosed with leukemia. His son smoked behind his back and the cancer was gon in a year. now he fights for the legalization of weed. Hypocrite. If its in 25000 products it cant b bad. Now go take a advil for you headache. Nothing wrong with the drugs in the pharmacy
