This is election pandering smoke and mirrors. I used to work in the DOJ before it was the modern Stasi, and there are very few inmates that are doing Federal time for simple possession of weed. There are quite a few that have it along with other charges. I'd say it might free a few, and most inmates affected might see a halfway house or supervised release a tiny bit earlier. A ruling like this would affect state and county inmates more than Federal by far.
