Do you have proof Rush was a drug dealer or just a user.

If the maid is telling the truth, Rush could be charged on possession with intent to distrute based merely on the huge quantity he purchased. She also reportedly is claiming that Rush paid her hush money, which would be felony obstruction of justice.

If Rush is charged with drug use, Florida is very lenient towards non-violent 1st time drug offenders.

Perhaps, but the federal drug laws that Rush has repeatedly supported could subject him to a long prison term even if he were convicted of mere possession.

I don't believe the maid, she sold the story to the NE to get money. Her husband has a criminal past, and they might be financially strapped. When her husband tried to sue his client for falling off the ladder, he wanted to sue for $75,000. The court dropped it because he didn't file income taxes and he didn't pay child support from another marriage. The court made him pay for the court cost. This happen a couple of years ago.

You can have a federal crime, if the drugs go over state lines. This all happen inside the state of Florida.
