Possession is only a misdemeanor in the US. At worst, you'll get a fine.

Unless you have multiple ounces, which I forgot the exact amount, then you will get a felony charge, and that's prison time. I think you'll get a felony charge because the court will just assume that's intent to deal, which is why is you have a scale on you, that's also a felony charge.

Possession of marijuana itself in small amounts is not a felony. Possession of synthetic marijuana may not even be a crime, depending on the local law. If the child is charged criminally, it will come out of the jurisdiction of the school, and the case will be tried in the courts.

The charged should confer with a criminal defense lawyer in Illinois to determine whether he has any legal defense or mitigating circumstances.
