Illinois - K2 was outlawed on January 1st, 2011. My 15 yr old son was ticketed for paraphenalia possession after a pipe and some K2 were found on a bench between him and 2 other minors. The pipe was not in my son's physical possession, yet he was the only one charged with it. They did not know the law had changed 2 days beforehand, and thought it was legal for them to possess. With all of this said, can I fight these charges?
