Well, thought I should let you all know how it went. :allgood: Got 6 months court supervision. So basically I have to keep my nose clean for the next 6 months. I think that I can handle that. So for the next 6 months, I'll be doing the speed limit and wearing my seatbelt when I'm driving. I'll...
I did smoke that day, but it was outdoors on a cool night. If the smell was in my hoodie then it was because of smoking with it on probably the day before or something like that.
Well he definitely won't pull speeding in court. Because if he weren't speeding even faster than I was he would never have been behind me. He had to have been going pretty fast to make it all the way from town to behind me. It's not really a small area. It's smaller than across the river but...
Test for THC? Do you mean in me or the substance? I'm pretty sure they had it analyzed after I was arrested. No they didn't use a dog at all. He just said he smelled it and had me go to the back of my car and started digging through my pockets. Yes I do have a witness, my g/f was riding in the...
I'm only being charged with possession, he also issued me a seatbelt violation, even though I don't really think that he could tell in the dark if I were wearing a seat belt or not. I drive a 94 Buick Lesabre and he was in one of the newer Crown Vics. They're about the same height and my...
UPDATE
Been to court, got a different lawyer than before. He does DUI cases for cops who get drunk across the river in IA. He also took my friend's case, a kid selling coke that got caught selling it to the MEG unit at the park in a town 20 miles from here. He was supposed to get 6 years in...
The lawyer I have is supposed to be really good. He usually takes cases larger than mine, but apparently when my cousin got arrested across the river for DUI I believe he helped her out quite a bit. But of course that's in Iowa not Illinois. I can't wait to move to a liberal state or for the US...
I do have a lawyer that I'm meeting with this Friday. He should be able to to tell me what my options are at this point. If I thought that it would really make a difference I'd walk into that courtroom and give my speech that I give to everyone else who thinks that pot is more harmful than...
I'm in the QC, Rock Island. That's where I got busted. But I really think that this officer fucked up. I mean I still don't know why I got pulled over.
Maybe you misunderstood, I did complete my previous probation in Iowa, the charges were dismissed. I haven't had a chance yet to expunge the record yet. But it wasn't a conviction.
In the police report I was caught with 2.5 to 10g, but the court records say 10 to 30, still a misdemeanor but a stiffer penalty. No I had no paraphenalia at all. I had smoked much earlier in the day, but not all that recently. What happens is any time I drive somewhere where there's a pungent...
Well I tried a legal advice forum but they're all jackasses. At least here I'm talking with people who are on my side of this fight. I was coming home from being out all day. It was about 11:30PM. I was going 5 over with the cruise set. Then I noticed a police officer behind me. I slowed down...
