Tokyo School principal arrested for pot possession -
10-04-2009, 01:05 AM
The principal of one of Tokyo's most prestigious international elementary schools was arrested yesterday for attempting to import marijuana from the US.
Shirley Lane, who is 59 years old, is the principal for the International School of the Sacred Heart in Tokyo. Also arrested was her husband, who is 62 years old. The Sacred Heart school is one of Tokyo's most well-known schools. The children of many foreign diplomats and business people attend school at Sacred Heart, and even members of the Emperor's family have studied there. After hearing the story, I couldn't help but be amazed at the stupidity of these people. They only arrived in Japan a couple of months ago, and only had time to get settled-in here. Now they are sitting in separate jail cells at the detention center in Shinagawa. After another week or so they'll see the magistrate, and he'll order them instantly deported, and banned from ever returning. They'll be taken from the jail to the airport, and put on a plane back to America with only the clothes on their backs. They won't be allowed to call any of their friends or associates, nor will they be allowed to return to their home to collect their personal belongings before they leave. Once again, if anyone reading this wants to come to Japan one day, leave the dope at home.

Wow, very stupid -- on so many different levels.
Just goes to show, though, that people you would never have expected actually use "pot" It's a victimless crime and is no more dangerous than other ready-available, legal drugs. It's a shame that you can be put in jail for possessing plant material.

Seems like anyone can get a med card to buy it legally, all they need is a phony symptom and $70. I think these people deserved it in this situation. Moving to a foreign country and breaking the law is stupidity at it's best. The series 'Locked-Up Abroad' comes to mind. [♥<--Nan's heart!]
