QUESTION
What can I expect if someone reports the package contents?
Asked on Nov 15th, 2014 on Criminal Law - Massachusetts
More details to this question:
I'm in a state where use is decriminalized amount about 1/4 ounce. I am pretty sure a neighbor took my package. If they open and report it, what could I expect to happen? I have zero criminal record but I am disabled and I use regularly for multiple medical conditions. I do not have a medical weed card. It's possible if my home, internet, or mailing history are checked that they can see that it's part of a pattern. I have no experience with anything like this and I am pretty worried.

If your neighbor has taken possession of a package intended for delivery to you with your name and address on it, they may have interrupted the chain of custody. You will have a valid defense to any charge relating to this package. As for your history of deliveries, any prosecution would have to be in the form of conspiracy, assuming there is no longer any physical evidence from the deliveries. I would advise you to speak with an experienced criminal defense attorney as soon as possible.
