His pockets are only in two states each. He may be in physical possession of illegal drugs for that one state, but the drugs themselves may not be there. How would that be ruled?

Technically they're on his person which is how possession is usually defined.

But possession is 9/10 of the law which means means this is only 9/40 or .225 illegal

That's the saying, but in reality it's more like 80%, or 4/5.

This, being in four states at once, that makes it 4/20.
