Are you sure its 2 months followed by deportation?
I heard it was one month mandatory, then if you get charged it could be another 3-5 years. If not, then they send you on the next plane out to your home country.

The reason i'm asking this is because its actually happening to a friend of mine right now. He was supposed to come home (to canada) mid-march of this year. But apparently he was arrested last week or so for posession of drugs, im not even sure at this point which drug or how much. So I really want to know whats going to happen to him.

This news is really depressing and im hoping they just end up deporting him instead of charging him.
