Cigarettes for minor
It doesn't seem like the kind of case that would excite a prosecutor, someone with many more serious crimes to deal with. Here is the text of Massachusetts General Laws Chapter 270, Section 6 (dealing with selling or giving cigarettes to minors):
Whoever sells a cigarette, chewing tobacco, snuff or any tobacco in any of its forms to any person under the age of eighteen or, not being his parent or guardian, gives a cigarette, chewing tobacco, snuff or tobacco in any of its forms to any person under the age of eighteen shall be punished by a fine of not less than one hundred dollars for the first offense, not less than two hundred dollars for a second offense and not less than three hundred dollars for any third or subsequent offense.
So, yes, technically you are committing a crime when you give your friend a cigarette. Maybe you should quit smoking. It will improve your health and eliminate the possibility of being asked for a cigarette by your minor friend. Good luck.
