Ignoring the fact that he actually was guilty of something and going on basic rights of privacy, how do you have the right to search someone’s camera for filming the roadside?

I am surprised the he had the weed on him. I thought he would be smarter then that and then to have it in his mothers house as well that was really stupid. He needs to sort out his priorities and straighten out his life. As well as move out of his parents home don’t he make enough money to get his own place.

As a side note how is it wrong to have a knife unless you are planning on using it in a crime. And how big was this knife (pocket knife or sword)?

I wonder about that knife thing. Is this a big difference between America and Britain? Because everybody owns knives. It’s not indicative of gang warfare or something. This isn’t West Side Story. When people need to attack or defend themselves, they use those new-fangled contraptions called “guns.”

Bloody hell!

Oh wells, nevermind. It’s only cannabis, at least it wasn’t something worse.

cannabis is safer than alcohol by a long shot, Jamie is yet another victim of unreasonable and unjust law.

What possessed him to do it? Sorry to sound blunt and cold, but seriously, what made him do it?

If he escapes a sentence, I would be VERY surprised if WB let him return in the final film. I mean, this is a family film and allowing a young actor who grew drugs and “got away with it” isn’t the kind of message WB would want to send out to its audience. But, would WB recast his character at this late stage?

I hope that Jamie rethinks the cannibis thing. It sounds like the friend who owned the knife is a pretty scary influence too. Jamie did a great job playing Vincent Crabbe. I hope that the judge will scare him staight!

oh my god! I didn’t think that one of the actors would jepordize their role for something not even worth it. Did he even think of what this would mean to his fans, or any Harry Potter fan in general? These series mean the world to us (hopefully) and now he’s ruined what we will think of him most likely forever. We grew up with some of these actors, Jamie included. To me, it’s almost like watching this happen to a friend.

but I hope that he turns his life around and learns from his mistakes. it means a lot when people sincerely apoligize and move on and never turn back.

I wonder if they’ll send him to Azkaban?

It would be my guess that he would possibly loose the Role of Crabbe… I mean, the actors had to sign contracts basicly saying they were going to be good children and not get into any trouble or negative publicity… Too bad too if that happened. Cause we will see more of Crabbe in DH then in any of the other movies, because of the Fire Fiend scene…

Oh dear, but it’s just cannabis, I mean, there are much worse things out there …. Not that I’d approve of it, but given how many Americans regularly take drugs (and I am referring to those they can get from their doctors legally) I can’t find that Jamie did anything horrible. He didn’t hurt anyone but himself, and alas, in a democracy we have the right to do just that …

splinch, illegal substance is illegal no matter how “safe” it is.
He did wrong and at least he admitted to it. Does anyone know the sentence? My friend, whom I learned to never listen to, said 17 years. I rolled my eyes.
