Plus a REASONABLE fine for having commited the illegal act. another 5,000.00
Plus an equivelant fine for the officers involvement and investigation and court hearings. at least 3,000.00 heck maybe 6,000.00 yeah lets call it 6,000.00
If He was unable to pay the fine ( 23,000.00) I believe jail time is traded off at 3 or 4 dollars per day.
