As I said in the other thread, before all the "rich people getting off with nothing" comments:
First strike offender that is a contributing member of society was caught with a small (relatively speaking) amount of drugs with no intent to distribute... Also, formal drug charges would stop him from being able to perform his job.
It's not crazy that even if he wasn't rich, he'd get the same treatment.
Even in the States, it's not a judges job to ruin lives.
