Definition
No longer subject to criminal penalties; changed from an illegal act to a legal or non-punishable act.
Etymology
Past participle of decriminalize, used as an adjective. The -ed ending indicates the state of having undergone decriminalization.
Kelly Says
In many places, marijuana has been decriminalized, meaning you won't face jail time for small amounts—but it's still not fully legal, which is an interesting legal middle ground.
