charges? after a toxicology test

[notme]

Georgia

Police found a bag of pot in my shed when looking for someone involved in a domestic dispute that took place in the street about 1/8 mile down the road. I was not home. The bag belonged to the person they were looking for. I don't know how much there was, are they gone to come charge/arrest me or come back with a search warrant after a toxicology test? I have run off the offender who was on probation for DUI at the time. Her probation was terminated and she has left the state.

Bring on the trailer park jokes 'cause I know it sounds like one, but I really am concerned.

My response:

Well, at least you were smart enough to identify your situation as a typical "trailer trash" situation. Because it is.

"The bag belonged to the person they were looking for." Yes, we all believe that one, including the prosecutor, the judge and the jury. Perhaps the Department of Corrections officer and warden will believe you too.

I know; I figured nobody would believe me. That's why I am concerned. I guess I just sit here and wait to see what happens.

My response:

How many times had you touched that bag?

"none"

======================================

My response:

Well, at least that negates one of their potential theories of your "ownership" of the bag - - e.g., no fingerprints.

However, you were still in possession, custody or control of the bag; i.e., it was located in your shed. Therefore, the prosecution could maintain that you were "holding" the bag for that person, unless that person admits otherwise, or doesn't admit to anything at all. Then, you might be screwed, glued and tattooed.
