No way he can work in what condition? High? I think you'd be pretty surprised. Even if he's a nickel and dime dealer, he would have more than a 1/4 ounce. My entire point is that there the amount of pot he has in his pictures is that of a user. He probably does deal, I don't know, but you wouldn't come to that conclusion by those pictures. Everyone who uses has that much weed. It's way under the amount any state would consider ripe for distribution charges, it's a users amount.
As far as the gov't assistance, that's a possibility. However, that's not him taking money from the gov't. I'm not going to go ahead and start making judgments from his kid's mother. Jewhan Edwards has put himself in the situation to be judged by strangers, we know nothing about her. I'd guess she probably isn't on government benefits if he's really a dealer. It would be insanely stupid to have the county come poking around your finances if you were dealing. Who knows, he could be that stupid. But it's really jumping to conclusions to assume that his kid's mom is on gov't assistance.
