I am not sure of much right now, other than i am totally ****ed. I am so sorry to all my bros. I wish i could do something for you all. This ****ing lawyer wants a $5000 retainer that takes me til inditement. Then trial costs more.
I dont' know the situation, but if this is the first time this dude has been arrested before, he won't need a lawyer. You always have first offender's sentencing which covers most anything short of violent crime / death. You get a court appointed lawyer and then you are sentenced under pre-determined guidelines that already exist on the books.
If you remember the young guy from my gym that I posted about last year that got caught with 5 amps of sust, he got the same sentence as someone with thousands of dollars in cash on them and a trunk full of drugs.
5 years probation
$3000 in fine
6 month - 2x weekly - drug counseling class (similiar to AA)
200 hours community service
