Maybe Jacob should have taken that into account.


Jacob Lavoro is facing charges for making and selling pot brownies. He had hash oil in his possession -- which carries a much stiffer penalty than marijuana possession because it has much higher TCH concentrations. He has been offered a plea deal which he has rejected because, according to his attorney, they fear prosecutors would be "overzealous" if he missed a mandatory meeting. Well, duh! The solution to that is not to miss the meeting.

Anyway, Lavoro says, "I'm 19 years old and still have a whole life ahead of me. Take that into account." Perhaps Lavoro is the one who should have taken that into account before he opened up his brownie business.
