iPhone Hacker Geohot Arrested For Possessing Marijuana

George Hotz aka Geohot was arrested and charged with felony charges for possessing marijuana while en route to SXSW. Geohot was on his way for an interview and when the drug dogs started barking at his car, cops had to pull over his car for further checking. 

George apparently had 1/4 oz. of marijuana and chocolate edibles equivalent to less than 1/8 oz of the drug in the car glove box. 

Hotz was booked for a felony and posted $1,500 The local sheriff valuated the weight of the entire chocolate as the weight of the pot at $800 instead of the $15 that Hotz paid for it. According to Musclenerd,  Hotz made it to the interview inspite of his arrest for possessing marijuana.

For those who don't know, Geohot was the first to hack into an iPhone and to successfully jailbreak an iPhone and his bootrom level exploit is still being used by The iPhone Dev Team to make tethered jailbreaks.

Seems like Geohot a not just a hacker but a naughty hacker :)
