When: 1991
Claiming he "forgot to dump his bag" before leaving Mexico, Carlos Santana was apprehended in a Houston airport after police found five grams of marijuana inside of it. He eventually pleaded "no contest," but a defense blaming pot's "Evil Ways" or the influence of a "Black Magic Woman" would probably have also worked just as well.
