i might be wrong here but they would have to actually find it in your possesion (in your home) to bust you. here say does not apply.

thats what im saying i never got anything - deny everything also but i should be clear

 

[Justtryingnot2getfat]

fortunately in our beloved country a little something called evidence is required to convict u for anything - witnesses dont count

nothin to sweat, but till its resolved i would keep it all clean.

 

[vinnie]

it would probably be a good idea to get whatever you have in the house out. im sure you already did this.

...or he's bullshitting you about being arrested and is keeping your gear. Wouldn't be the first time that happened. There aren't a whole lot of domestic seizures involving such a small amount, but either way, you're out your money and almost certainly are not going to have any legal trouble as a result.

Hey Bro, you got burned twice. That much gear only costs around $180.00 and no I am not a source so don't even ask me where....'Cause I don't know.

Don't sweat it!! In TX and under federal law, there is no such crime as attempted possession of a controlled substance. The reason is that possession either requires actual dominion or control over the item or constructive possession. Constructive possession can occur when somebody's house is raided and everyone is charged with the controlled substance found in the house or when a car is stopped and everyone in the car gets charged. Neither actual nor constructive possession apply here. Possession must be a completed crime to have conduct which is punishable. This is known as the actus reas of the crime.

In one of your posts, you said that you would deny ever asking for the controllled substance. That absolutely drives me crazy!!! One day, I'll actually convince everyone on this board to say NOTHING to the police without your lawyer being present. I've been practicing criminal law for years, and I'm not so arrogant as to believe that I could talk my way out of a sticky situation with the police. IF EVER QUESTIONED BY THE POLICE, DEMAND A LAWYER.

If you live in Houston or Dallas, the incident will probably be over for you, even if your friend gives up your name to law enforcement. If you live in a smaller town, then the worst law enforcement might do is send you a controlled buy. Don't receive any packages from your friend for at least the next two years.

I would get rid of any gear that is in your home or automobile. You better remain clean for the next year. Also, don't have any correspondence or conversations with your friend. (Exception: hushmail or elitefitness encrypted e-mail). That sounds cold, but the government can easily intercept communications, and you need to look out for yourself. You don't need to further implicate yourself.

If you have any further legal questions or run into further legal troubles, please feel free to e-mail me.

nycdefender that is a fantastic post., no doubt that you have a legal background. There is a source in TX that the feds want big time. They would probably waste tax payers money by busting some guys to get evidence against them. If it is the source that that I am thinking about they often pass fakes as well as real gear.

Bump for nycdefender. Thanks, bro.
