He could have served almost 6 months already, and I'm guessing if he going to serve any time it would be something like that. Good luck to him.

This is disgusting given the amount he was caught with.

All the people saying he could have been in jail already... He ain't going to jail, and if he does, it would probably be 30 days, max (and even then, he probably wouldn't serve all of that in jail). You guys do know the charges due to the amount were "intent to distribute" which he clearly had no actual intent of doing. They've reached some sort of plea deal as it were, those who know nothing of the legal system should probably not say anything about it.

It would probably be 30 days, obviously I don't know the content of the plea deal they have, but based on TNA's push and the fact he wasn't going to actually distribute the drugs, I'd imagine it would be close to that if he were to get any jail time at all.

If it were going to a jury or judge's decision, you are 100% ABSOLUTELY RIGHT! But we're talking about a plea deal here, that's the key. The fact that he had no intention helped their negotiations to keep him from going to jail is my point. You have to keep in mind that's what this is all about. From the straight up "what does the law say", that is certainly correct, but plea deals and negotiated deals work... differently (whether they should or not, is another story). In other words, there is no "building a case to prosecute with" since the two sides are working together on an agreement.

In other words, there is no "building a case to prosecute with" since the two sides are working together on an agreement. A judge has to approve the plea deal. So if the prosecution comes up with a 30 day deal for Jeff and he accepts it. The judge could say no and that he/she won't allow anything less than 90 days in jail for Jeff. If Jeff doesn't like that then he'd have to go for a jury trial. It's up to the judge if the deal is accepted.

Here we go again. Common sense just cant prevail. If this was someone other than Jeff Hardy, a WFig beloved, the story and opinions would be much different.
