View submission: Legal professionals of Reddit: What’s the funniest way you’ve ever seen a lawyer or defendant blow a court case?

I’m an attorney and I heard about a hearing where there were several criminal defendants before the judge. The judge noticed a strong pot smell in the courtroom and asked if any of the defendants had pot on them. No one came forward and the judge proceeded, but the odor became stronger and stronger. Finally the judge demanded the perpetrator to come forward. Finally one of the came forward and had several bags of weed on him. I’m not sure what the charges were before him that day but I wouldn’t want to have been his attorney

Was this weed smouldering or something? Find it hard to believe a package of weed can be smelled across the room
