I grabbed a back pack from a hotel lobby that I believed to be my friends. upon discovery it was not, I went to return it to the front desk. I was asked by my friend to bring a room key down as he had a friend in the lobby and I was leaving. Upon exiting the elevator I had a police officer grab me as a man had called about his back pack. I was arrested. 4 days later I receive in the mail, a felony drug charge! The envelope I grabbed with the room number did not have a key, It had a gram of Meth! the back pack case was dropped so I never should have been arrested but they are pushing on with a felony drug charge! any thoughts?
What if a cop setting you up and his name never on your paperwork and you reported him and now he getting worse. And when I reported him the Lt pushed me out of my chair and rushed me out the office.
What is a person has a warrant and when being arrested they find in a container in his pocket he was unaware of carrying on labs has showed supposed math they arrested him on possession He pled not guilty to the possession because it was not in his knowledge that this was a container containing meth at any time his defence attorney says he should plead no contest How ever each really had no knowledge of it being any kind of container used for methamphetamine there was a glass file out with no power E substance or residues

My fiance & I had an argument & she called police to escort her and her things out of the house when they came in they immediately arrested me and even though they weren’t there for anything else they searched a box just because it had a trucker sticker of a girl lying on a marijuana leaf. Now I did have marijuana in the box but I did not know there was a baggie of crystal meth ( About under a gram) in there; I told them it wasn’t mine & that my nephew who had stayed with us for 2 weeks before incident was a crystal meth user. Can I serve time for this? I live in Moyock, North Carolina & have court( with no attorney to represent me) this morning.
If you are under the influence can cops search your car? One of my friends was waiting for a ride and fell asleep in the car. He had a small amount of narcotics and some paraphanelia. Since he was in a car they are trying to charge him with DWI even though he was asleep, possession and paraphanelia. What can we do to beat this? Was it a legal search if he didn’t consent? Is he was sleeping then how can they say he was driving? Please help!!
Thanks

Are you on TikTok yet?
Steve, after 4 years and 5 court appointed attorneys that did nothing but try to throw me under the bus my 1st degree felony drug case was dismissed on May 10th 2021. In Feb of 2020 the court found out that the CI had indeed been ‘planting’ drugs in people’s homes just like I had been saying this entire time. 2 of this CI’s victims have been released from prison after serving almost 2 years. They were given ‘actual innocence’. I’m seeking accountability for what happened to me as I have lost everything fighting this malicious prosecution . Do u know of any lawyers in San Antonio that would want to take a case such as mine?
Thank you
A friend was caught with cannabis he said the whole time it was “CBD bud” and since it contains .03 thc it will field test positive . The states have no way to test percentage only that it is present as the test is expensive and only done by private companies…he beat it they couldn’t prove it wasn’t hemp bud or cbd
When you say that knowledge of possession is a good defence what is it mean if they cannot prove you knowingly possessed something does that mean not guilty dismissal or does that mean no contest thanks again for your help with everything your awesome
I need help wit a case I got attempted delivery for some weed
Can the police search your vehicle after you said no to the search in anyway or form and they get the K-9 unit and pretend like the k-9 have a hit are they allowed on search when it was supposed to only be a warning traffic stop
I was arrested in August of 2019 for second degree misdemeanor possession of marijuana I was not given a lawyer’s name until June of 2020 after almost a year of me refusing to make a play guilty of or not until I received my right to an attorney at my first court hearing and October of 2019 I filled out the application to be declared indigent to receive a court-appointed lawyer because I am a single mother and I am on disability they said that I was more than indigent however they never gave me a lawyer wanted to just send me directly to color code and come back in 60 days and when I asked do I not get a lawyer the prosecutor said that this charge carries up to a year and County jail do you want to go to jail or do you want to go to color code and come back in 60 days and so therefore I was never given a lawyer’s name until June of 2020 when I again told the judge that I will not make a plea nor will I just accept whatever punishment they want to give me without me being able to speak with a lawyer and no my rights know what my options are well the lawyer’s name and number that they gave me is disconnected I am unable to find this lawyer anywhere so now it is almost August of 2021 and I’m going to court tomorrow and they have said that if the case is not taken care of that they are going to suspend my license or they’re not statue of limitations on discharge and also what about my sixth amendment right to legal representation even if I can’t afford it could you please reply back and help me out in this situation thank you…

Can they run tags just by u going to the store no other reason. And pull u over and see drugs
You have awesome knowledge :>) ! I’m a former cop & USAF vet. I was recently arrested for DUI (.10 alc) & poss of Xanax (about 200 pills). How can they accurately question me (which they did) if i’m under the influence of the drug? Xanax as well as most hypnotics act like ‘truth serum’, I mean you are extremely suggestable when you’re on them. They got me to tell them I ordered them over the net and told them i ordered Xanax. I wasn’t in control. I could have wanted to order Xantac (similar in name), but was sent Xanax instead. What do you think of all this? Have you heard of the overdose defense?
I was driving with possession of maybe 4 Oz or more no baile time for now.. the cops said they will let me go but I will get a call after lab results of the THC is high.. also had a scale and told them it’s for my personal use for insomnia and adhd but what are my options? Hope I just get fined and not jail time no all they took was the scale and bag of weed I did tel them I don’t sell it’s just for personal use. Pls help
If a police officer asked me to search my vehicle and I deny the search can he bring a dog to sniff around the vehicle

Steve I’m almost mesmerized by your videos. I want to see some new content soon!!! Please.
Hey! My bf was driving my car . I left drugs in it! He was on the porch . They called him off the porch to talk and seize him! Then the dogs were called bc they seen him in the driver seat of my vehicle… OK! So they suppressed the 1 search and seizure in which only money and a knife was found on him…
They said the dog search was independent of the 1st search and seizure and is not throwing that out! What could be done? Now, they’ve set trial should I tell his lawyer it was mines?
The reason I haven’t was because the case was bullshit but they are doing everything they can to try convict him!
The drugs was found in my vehicle… in which he was driving that night but not when dogs hit… police bring him back to vehicle after dog hit and charged him! What options do I have?
First off I’m not on prohibition or parol neither am I a 4th waiver, Yesterday night I got pulled over by the sheriffs going home from work but before that my cousin asked me if I could get him a room at the motel 2 mins away from my house, during the time I was getting the room for him I saw two sheriffs go to the motel parking lot and they slowed down to look at my truck then they left, I got my cousin his room then I left almost getting home I realized the sheriff that went to the motel was behind me and turned his lights on and pulled me over. When he showed up to my window he said that if he knew me from somewhere and I responded no, he didn’t tell me the reason he pulled me over until more later first he said he saw me at the motel and that’s usually a motel that people do drug deals at, even tho he saw me in the office. He asked for my license I gave him My ID,his partner asked if I have a license and I reponsded i have a restricted license 45 sec pass and the sheriffs at my window said no u don’t, I said yes I do I’m even getting engarnaged paying off the ticket from before, he asked me if I had anything illegal in my truck if I had any guns or dope he told me can I search ur car I told him I wasn’t on prohibition or parol neither was I a fourth waiver, he responded either u can let me search ur truck or I can tow ur truck and search it anyways so pretty much I had no choice I need my vehicle to go to work, he asked me one more time if I have anything in the truck and I told him yea and I’m not going to sugar coat it I had a a broken meth pipe and no I was not under the influence and it’s been a while since I even used. He said ok, he asked me is their anything else and I said no I believe it was 3-4 officers to search my truck and like I said I had nothing else besides the pipe and they didn’t find anything they searched it from top to bottom for more then 30 mins to an hour by the end he told me he pulled me over because I “had tinted windows” which my windows are way beyond the legal limit. He gave me a ticket for the broken pipe so I want to know wat should I do since I felt the search wasn’t right since he threatened to take my truck away.
