Jailed on a "non-bail" type offence, otherwise he could post $441K, which doesn't seem like that much money somehow relative to the (3oz meth, coke, heroin, pills, weed, loaded gun, etc).
Good times.

28.8 grams of suspected crystal methamphetamine, 15 grams of suspected marijuana, 8.3 grams of suspected cocaine, 2 grams of suspected heroin, 165 prescription pills, 14 doses of Suboxone
Some small town pharmacies have less than that behind the counter.

fwiw, Obama just commuted sentences of 3 Hawaii guys that had 15-25 yr prison sentences.. they all have to do 2 more yrs, but caught a break..
they all had 50+ grams of 'Ice', and some gun charges, etc.
25 years for small time drug dealing is crazy IMO, I dont care that its 'ice'...thats like a Murder/Violent Rape conviction in some places...

So Ruggles is still in jail for Weed, but Meth dealers toting firearms are set free. Interesting choices.
We need to make addiction a medical issue you deal with through your doctor, and eliminate all the associated dealers, theft and violence. Prohibition just creates opportunity and criminals.
