First-degree possession of marijuana in Alabama is a Class C felony in the state. If (Aden) Holloway is convicted, he could face up to 10 years in a state penitentiary and up to a $15,000 fine. He could also receive a six-month driver’s license suspension and have to take mandatory drug-awareness classes, per Polson law firm.

Failure to affix a tax stamp is a charge applied to illegal drugs that are possessed without state tax having been paid, per patch.com.

Wonder if they'd arrest a football player right before the playoffs. LOL.

how is a tax stamp involved? What am I missing.

Serious (for once) possible answer: medical marijuana? Who knows.

Maybe some amount that kinda defines a difference between a common weekend user and a more hardcore dealer?

Who knows. If this was Illinois, I would swear on a stack of Bibles this was just another government money grab.

It was a secondary charge that conservative states started adding when

Go Zags!

soft on crime leftist judges refused to follow the law in the '90's. You add a second charge, it adds time that is hard to get around for anyone in "possession" of drugs, and liberal judges couldn't do away with the charge without destroying the entire tax regime. In addition, it gave additional asset seizure powers to the state, which though often abused, are the primary avenue of a disgorgement remedy when they catch a material dealer.
