So any law with the phrase 'any person' can be argued and appealed due to this cr**. How do these sick individuals attain such potions to begin with?
Well, I wouldn't be surprised to discover that potions were involved.
I don't know how high up the food chain this case got, but it sounds like, worst case, it only has to do with Virginia. And my untutored guess is if a similar case ended up in front of a judge in another district or circuit, a more sensible interpretation of "any person" could be used, and then it would be appealed.I do want to say that I don't think it's right to dump on her lawyer. He's got to do the best he can defending her, and if he can persuade a judge to adopt an interpretation of the law favorable to his client, good on him. The fault is the judges' for falling for that stuff.
