Craig Robinson was arrested for drug possession in the Bahamas yesterday … after trying to board a plane with half a gram of marijuana and 18 ecstasy pills.
Robinson — who was in the Bahamas for a comedy show at the Atlantis hotel — appeared before a magistrate (wearing a T-shirt and shorts) … and pled guilty to two counts of drug possession.
Robinson was facing up to 4 YEARS in prison … but got a huge break with the magistrate, who let Craig off the hook with a simple $1,000 fine. He was also ordered to leave the country ASAP.
Avoiding four years in a Bahamian prison is a good thing. Not facing that possibility is an even better thing.
Robinson explained that he didn’t know the drugs were illegal in the country. Solid excuse.
