John Boehner's daughter is marrying a Jamaican-born man who has been arrested for possessing marijuana

House Speaker John Boehner is a staunch opponent to legalizing marijuana, so he might not be pleased when he finds out his daughter's fiancee has been arrested for possessing the drug.

Lindsay Marie Boehner, 35, is set to marry Dominic Lakhan, 38, on May 10 in Delray Beach, Florida, according to the couple's wedding registry.

In 2006, Lakhan was arrested in Pembroke Pines, Florida for misdemeanor possession of two grams of marijuana during a traffic stop, the National Enquirer first reported.

The police report from the incident states that 'upon making contact with the driver,' an officer 'observed in plain view a 16 oz. Natural Lite beer can opened in the driver door.'

The officer 'also detected the odor of burnt cannabis emitting from the interior of the vehicle,' the police report continues. 'A search of the vehicle revealed two bags containing approximately 2 grams of suspected cannabis… inside the center of the ashtray.'

1. Boehner is really looking old - is the drinking catching up to him?

That double barreled slow suicide he takes part in - drinking and smoking - has to start showing soon.
Maybe his new SIL can show him the wonders of dope.

I know his father and sister. His dad is originally from Trinidad but he studied here, married local and never left.
By the way the US Supreme Court just ruled in favour of a Jamaican who was deported over a small about of ganja.

Seriously 2 grams of ganja????

I hate Boehner but he has no say in who his 35 year old daughter decides to marry.

I for one hope she goes the way of her new husband and not her drunk of a father. He's just a big hypocrite who has no problem with alcohol. He is such a ass, I can't figure out how he ever got elected to anything!

They would rather chase after the potheads and arrest them, then fix the fucking economy for the potheads. I guess the first one is easier.

Maybe Boehner's dear daughter is cool with the pot. I'm about as opposite my dad on political issues as one could get. One thing is for sure, she will love her new last name!
