This is typical of Maryland's judicial system and in particular the lower shore court commissioners

It's based on facts of arrest in case. Most likely it was unlawful search and district court commissioner knew that.

2)hash oil (concentrated marijuana),
3)weed,
4)drug paraphernalia,

and is talking on his cellphone while driving.

Walks away, with court case pending. Good luck on ever seeing his hairy self again in O.C. or in Worcester County court.

He will go to jail for 1 year for being on cell phone.
All other charges will be dropped!
ROTFLMA

10:12 A.M. Of course I was being sarcastic. Seems to me caught with a stolen handgun or other firearm anywhere, and particularly in MD, should mean instant incarceration. I believe it is true that many gun laws throughout the country are not prosecuted to the extent they should be. Most of the people who did the recent mass killings broke at least one existing gun law before they did their terrible deeds.

No one told me where he got his sweater from? It's got to be hot during the summer months.

Bonds are based on prior criminal history. Not the facts of arrest. That is for a real judge To decide.
