My jurisdiction is: DC, US
I submitted an article to a well-regarded national magazine describing my arrest in Arkansas on a charge of possession of methamphetamine with intent to distribute and paraphenalia. Now I'm having second thoughts about whether to let them print it.
In the article, I describe my experience being arrested and held in jail, and I discuss the "war on drugs" in general. I end the article by expressing my determination, if found guilty, to appeal because "there ought to be a Roe v Wade for the drug laws". Would a prosecutor be able to use that against me, or would it be prejudicial in any way?
The article is at theheretic.us [forward slash] 60 [forward slash]
