Wassell told Spectrum News the last six years have been a struggle.
"If anything good comes of this, I hope people understand you can't charge someone with a violent felony for having an inanimate object, for something that is popular all over the country [and] protected by the constitution," Wassell said.
"Whether you agree or not. If somebody doesn't harm someone there's no victim, there's no crime. If anybody takes anything away from this it's the fact that good people are being harmed by these laws, that politicians are pushing through that don't actually protect the population."
Following his conviction in 2014, Wassell was sentenced to probation and paid a fine. Attorney James Ostrowski says the felony charges against Wassell will be wiped off his record.
