He could go to jail, have this conviction on his record for the rest of his life, be disqualified from certain jobs, and not be eligible for certain academic programs. In addition, if he has two or more prior convictions for simple possession, he could be convicted as a felon, loose his right to vote in addition to the aforementioned outcomes.
