Duhâ¦
Um yeah, itâs kind of hard to convict a guy of smoking a bong at a party 4 months ago. Thatâs just one of many reasons that literally everyone in the world thought this was a terrible idea. Lottâs press conference was supremely lame, as he played the role of a valiant public servant caught in an epic "damned if you do, damned if you donât" conundrum. As if anybody was going to give him a hard time for failing to launch a massive investigation against a misdemeanor marijuana suspect who couldnât even be legally extradited because the charge was so petty.
Anyhow, itâs probably safe to say the Michael Phelps mega-controversy will likely begin fizzling out from here, unless he gets caught free-basing bubble hash on YouTube.
Lott said his investigators couldn't find enough evidence to charge anyone â including Phelps â who attended the party with any crime. [The State]
