Long boring story, but i wanna tell it anyway so will try and make it quick. Cops were watching my buddy. Saw me visit and leave real quick. They came to my house next day asking what I was doing there. They said he's a known dealer and I was buying drugs there. They came in my front door without permission and saw some weed on the table. They asked to search the house. I told them to kiss my ass.

They put me in cuffs for 4 hours while they got a warrant. They found no more weed, but a postage scale so added an intent to distriubute charge. Then they found my guns and charged me with posession of firearms during a felony. They also found another small bag of something I won't mention in detail.

So I got to spend a day and a half in jail. The judge let me bond myself out. So I'm free for a couple weeks. I'm speaking with the public defender and a couple more lawyers next week. Think I can beat the charges for illegal entry. We'll see how it goes.

Yes, that's a good word. Will never open the door without checking it again.

Don't know about where you're from but in my state, illegal substance out in the open means proable cause. Gives them the right to put you under arrest and then execute a search warrant.

I agree with Jess, play with fire, you're gonna get burned. Not to sound harsh but you know what you had was illegal. Stand up and take whatever punishment you're given. shades

I wont go into great detail but recently the police came into the property where i was and were aware there was weed in the house, but fortunately they were not interested at all in it. The laws in the UK are much less strict though.

Good luck, hope you get away with it, you should do by the sounds of it.

Hummm first of all how did they come in without your permission did you not open the door as they walked in? Did they shove their way in?

As far as seeing the weed on the table well lets see that is what ya call "In plan site" which gives them the reason for a search warrant.

So good luck on beating those charges.

And another thing the little episode the day before does give them what is called "Reason to Believe" that due to you were visiting a known drug dealers house they had ever reason to believe you were buying as well.

Actually in the UK i believe if the police have reason to believe there are illegal drugs in a property, i.e they see or smell them, then they can enter without a warrant.

I wonder what the other bag of something was. If he is your "buddy" I'm pretty sure you knew he was a dealer. Never tell a cop to "Kiss your ***".

Humm Dan the laws within the States are totally different here and not that easy to get off on matter of fact the jail time for weed in Texas is 30 days first offense for meth it is 2-10 years first offense.

next time get a delivery job they come and go all the time

:wink:

what felony did you commit

a scale to weigh your food portions is not illegal and them ones at wal-mart just are not accurate (so all you dealer quit hiding the scale in the closet and put it on the kitchen counter with a lil container on it to weigh your food.) :wink:

seems to me the lil bag you do not want to speak of is the major factor here

If a cop just happens to be walking down the street and they smell weed while your smoking it and can determine which house it is coming from they can in fact get a search warrant with that it gives them probable cause in order to get a search warrant.

30 days for smoking weed is retarded! I am so glad i dont live in your country.

i re-read his post, and yeah, it might not be so easy to get off.

Depends on the state. Sounds like you are in a zero tolerance state. Contact a group called NORML. The are 4:20 advocates that might be able to help. The thing is what drugs did they accuse your friend of distributing? If it was Meth they just had their bust hosed. They may try to lie but a good attorney can find out. The whole 'firearms and drugs' thing is federal anyway. Still, you can also fight the bust on a profiling rap. If the herb you were busted with matches the stash prepare to say ouch. If they were looking for something else in your house besides weed and could not find it can you say "Illegal Search and Seizure?" I bet you can!
At that point I would say find an attorney who loves cops and sic him on them with a nice fat as**d law suit! There are attorneys who would take one look at a case with proper merit and dump their money into getting the heap of cash the city will be offering to keep it out of court (work it Pro Bono).

Hope you are on the right end of this! the reason they like to pick on 4:20 is that 4:20 does not get violent like trying to bust up someone with whiteness under their noses (or in their glass pipe!).

Also look up 4:20 advocacy groups! They can also be a great source of information for defending yourself. Still, doing it in their face is not very smart either even if it is your living room.
A little paranoia can save you a lot of misery.
