$25,000 must be a typo. Retainers are usually in th 1-5 range, 25k seems rediculous.

Yeah, but he was getting Johnny Cochrane.

Considering that THAT is what they actually do for a living bro, then NO, it doesnt seem odd. Besides, they didnt have to wait for weeks at a time. They only waited one day, and this kind of shit happens ALL THE TIME!! Why do you think that people always say to wait a week before you go & pick up a package in person?? They might not wait THAT long, but a few days isn't out of the real of possibility at all. There was a post made by "ironfist" saying that he had the same thing happen for 200 Drol. So if you believe that, then you should also have no problem believing this dudes story of 1500 Dbols if you want to get right down to it. It happens.

i know what you are saying bro, but they didn't know how long they would have to wait. i believe his story, what reason would he have to lie? but if you ask me there was something else going on that he was not aware of. it seems to me that a customs agent has bigger fish to fry than some kid with dbol.

Actually, it is 32 dosage units...But under federal law, anything under 600 dosage units is personal use...

So wait a second then....I thought it was 1 dosage unit = 100 tabs. Are you saying that it is 50 tabs? I want to get it straight if Im wrong is why I ask.

Don't always assume government or it's employees are always going to operate in a logical way. They sometimes do things for reasons someone outside thier circle would never understand. Trust me I know.

Re: Re: Re: Re: f

The only thing with a Public Defender is that they have to take as many cases as they get, which leaves them precious little time(or no time rather) to devote to you specifically. Weather or not you go with a Private Counselor, or a Public Defender WILL NOT matter though, since you aint going to Jail either way. What Im saying is that with a Private Attorney working for you, you might be able to cut the Probation time down SIGNIFIGANTLY. A PD is going to try to get you to take the first deal that comes your way, since he is trying to unload as many cases, as fast as possible.

Zerxes assumption about PDs is incorrect. Yes, it is true that a private attorney has more time to devote to your case than a PD. But one, PDs do not have to take as many cases as a PD can get. It's not true in the L.A. office (where I have a couple of friends), and it's not true here in NYC. I do not have a quota of cases to do.
Two, PDs do not try to get you to take the first deal that comes your way. That assumption is the most aggravating bulls**t that I have to confront. There are many times that I tell a client to pass up on an offer that a ADA makes, because I know that in many cases, I can make the case a pain in the ass for the ADA. To avoid the pain, I can get an ADA to bargain down later.

Now for Shawn. Your story is very frustrating to me. I have been on this site dozens of times telling everyone not to speak to the police or to the DA's office without having your attorney present. If you cannot afford an attorney, the state must provide you with a free attorney. Why, why why speak to the police? So what you had a package of Thai d-bol. After you admit that you knew you were receiving d-bol, the case is practically over for you. I implore other members of this board to heed my advice: The only thing you should say to the police is that you want your lawyer. That's it. End of discussion.

You did not tell them things that they already knew. Your knowledge of the contents of the package could only be proved circumstantially. That might have made the case very weak for the prosecution. But with your confession, you made the case a slam-dunk for them. Please, members of Elite, don't repeat his mistake. Other board members have made the same mistake.

Shawn, you never contact the ADA on the case. I don't care if you are confused about the court dates. Go the the L.A. public defender's office and ask them. That's what they are there for. Contacting an ADA is the type of behavior that sends my blood pressure through the roof! Everything you say to the ADA can and WILL be used against you.

Shawn, do yourself a huge favor. Go to the PD's office tomorrow! Talk to an attorney there who can precisely explain your predicament to you. Only competent legal advice can lessen your fears.

Good luck.

You'd think they would bro, but I guess it depends on the Agent in question. More than likely, a dumptruck-sized shipment of Uranium-235 destined for Ali-habba-bomthreat skated right through, while this fuckhead Customs Agent was sitting there counting out 1600 little pink tabs. It's ludicrous. As far as them not knowing weather or not WHEN Shawn would actually show up, they probably didn't. They would have waited a few days, and then just confiscated the pax(just like a seizure) if he wasn't there by then. My guess is though, more often than naught guys are right there THAT DAY to get their shipments, and the hacks know that. So they took a shot & they got him.
