I agree with you, however... > spending 44 days behind bars before the THC and gun charges were dropped, the contempt order got tossed and he pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor pot charge.

However failing to comply with the police and then a court order seemed to work in his favor. I imagine the consequences of him committing felonies and allowing the police to get even more evidence would have been worse than just 44 days and a misdemeanor and whatever he paid his attorneys.
