Wilson County (Tennessee) Sheriff Robert Ryan said Spencer Alan Boston appeared in court Monday on a marijuana possession charge.
When Boston approached the bench to discuss his sentence, Ryan said Boston pulled the marijuana from his pocket in front of the general sessions judge.
As the court officers quickly approached him, the inmate began talking about his desire to see marijuana legalized in Tennessee.
“One of the craziest things I’ve seen,” Bryan said.
The sheriff said Boston was led out of the courtroom through a small cloud of smoke. He was booked on a second charge of simple possession and received ten days for contempt of court.
