My Spouse Has Been Arrested, I Am Looking for Similar Stories to See How Others Dealt With the Stress?
Question by Patrick: My spouse has been arrested, I am looking for similar stories to see how others dealt with the stress?
My spouse was recently arrested for Grand Larceny in the 4th degree. Something was stolen at her work. She had a previous history of drug use, which she has been to rehab for and has since stopped using. After she stopped using, she started gambling instead. Due to her history, and somebody placing her near the ‘scene of the crime’ they had enough probable cause to arrest her.
She denies the claims, and I believe her at this time, but there have been trust issues in the past due to her drug use. I am sticking by her now, especially because we have two kids. It makes it hard to run away. Our lawyer says the case looks weak at this time, but who knows where it will end up?
I did not approve of her drug use and told her it would eventually lead to an arrest. I am trying to believe her that she did not do it, but it is very hard. I guess I am just hoping that she has hit rock bottom, and that no matter what happens, it will get better. She seems to know that she has messed up and states she wants to start over.
I am really just looking for stories or resources from others that may have been in a similar situation. Did you stick with your spouse? What did you do if they were convicted and went to jail? How do you explain the situation to your kids? (ages 4 & 6). Should I just cut her loose now and file for divorce? Take the kids and start over? Things were not always like this. The issues started when she started using. I would give anything to get back to how things were then. Anything will help. Thank you.
Why Do People Want Marijuana Legalized?
Question by Jacob S: Why do people want marijuana legalized?
I don’t understand this at all. Who could want this stuff legalized? Marijuana smokers are 6 times more likely to get lung cancer than tobacco smokers, and marijuana is highly addictive (look at the statistics, more teens are in treatment for marijuana addiction that all other drugs combined). According to studies done by Dr. Gabriel G. Nahas, marijuana can cause irreversible brain damage and destroys brain cells. Why would anyone want this horrible narcotic to be legal?

Answer by MadameZ
None of it makes sense. Some folks are addicted to alcohol and cigarettes and this is OK. But if police find you with MJ or cocaine, you get busted and do jail time.
It’s ridiculous. They should either be all illegal or all legal.
